Values are presented as means ± SD or number (%). aSome individuals have more than one outcome (for example MI + diabetes); hence, the sum of these column counts does not match the total counts of individuals. bOnly nonfasting glucose measures were available for participants in the HUNT2 cohort. MI denotes previous myocardial infarction. Abbreviations: T2D, Type 2 diabetes; AP, angina pectoris; MI, myocardial infarction; CVD, cardiovascular disease; bpm, beats per minute.
