Predictors of incident heart failure in multivariate analysis (n=5932) * All models are adjusted for ethnicity, antihypertensive medication use, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, current smoking, heart rate and estimated glomerular filtration rate. Only significant predictors of CHF are shown.
Results of Cox models examining the relationship between hemodynamic variables at baseline and the risk of CVE and HF during follow-up. * Adjusted for age, ethnicity, gender, body height, body weight, diabetes mellitus, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, antihypertensive medication use, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, current smoking, heart rate and estimated glomerular filtration rate. Complete covariate data was available from 5932 subjects.
