Summary of regression coefficients for each marker of inflammation according to heart rate measures included in the same model

	Leukocytes		Platelets		CRP		25[OH]D
	B	SE	B	SE	B	SE	B	SE
Daytime HR	−0.01	0.10	3.28	3.70	0.39	0.24	0.08	0.73
Nighttime HR	0.06	0.03*	1.19	1.08	0.20	0.07**	−0.17	0.21
24 h HR	−0.01	0.12	−3.84	4.60	−0.53	0.30	0.03	0.90

Values reported are unstandardized regression coefficients (B) with standard errors (SE).

Model included daytime, nighttime and 24 h heart rate. Model further included age and sex, smoking status, body mass index, 24 h ambulatory blood pressure, fasting glucose, total cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations, history of cardiovascular disease, and cardiovascular medication.
