Unadjusted and adjusted risk of acute myocardial infarction
| Unadjusted odds ratio (95% CI) | *Adjusted odds ratio (95% CI) | |
|---|---|---|
| *Adjusted odds ratios are based on multivariable model. | ||
| †Raised blood glucose defined as fasting blood glucose ⩾6.1 mmol/l (110 mg/dl). | ||
| ‡NS: these factors were not significantly associated with acute myocardial infarction in the multivariable model and were therefore not included in the final model. | ||
| §Parental consanguinity is defined as first cousin marriage between parents of subjects. | ||
| ¶Exercise was defined as jogging, swimming, bicycling or exercising in the gymnasium most days of the week during the past six months. | ||
