  1. *Difference between groups was tested by trend test: multiple regression for continuous variables & logistic regression for categorical outcome variables. Log transformed values for the outcome variable was used for the skewed variables. ** P-value obtained from Pearson’s correlation coefficient. aEstimates absolute risk (%) for cardiovascular death within 10 years. bEstimates risk for coronary heart disease over a period of 10 years (1 = 100 % risk)
