Table 2

Hazard ratio (95% CI) of SCD per each SD (18.98 ng/mL) increase of FABP4 concentration among CHS participants ( ).

Hazard ratio (95% CI) value

Per one SD higher FABP4
 Model 1*1.32 (1.16–1.51)<0.001
 Model 2**1.15 (0.96–1.37)0.13
 Model 3***1.15 (0.95–1.38)0.15

Model 1: adjusted for age, sex, race, and field center.
Model 2: adjusted for variables in model 1 plus education, GFR-cystatin, hsCRP (log transformed), kcal of leisure time physical activity (log transformed), hormone replacement therapy, alcohol, self-reported health status, and smoking.
Model 3: adjusted for variables in model 2 plus body mass index.
