↵* Model 1 = crude; Model 2 = adjusted for age, type 2 diabetes; Model 3 = additionally adjusted for mean arterial pressure; Model 4 = additionally adjusted for heart rate, body mass index, lipid medication, smoking, alcohol use, prior cardiovascular disease and hypertension.
↵† A total of 111 participants (7 cases) equally distributed among the groups had missing values on covariates and dropped out of the analyses.
