Associations between classical cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors (outcomes) and sST2 (predictor), univariately and adjusted for age and sex*.

*Regression models were fitted with classical risk factors as the outcome (all log transformed) and log sST2 as the predictor. Adjusted models include age, sex and their interaction.Effect estimates are reported as the relative change in outcome associated with a one standard deviation in log sST2.
