Hazard ratios of hospitalisation and mortality from stroke and ischemic heart disease for self-rated health (SRH) at short-, mid- and long-term, cox models with delayed entry.

Each of the models was fully adjusted for sociodemographic variables (age, sex and education), behavioural risk factors (smoking, alcohol use, vitamin C intake and physical activity) and clinical risk factors (total cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, BMI, history of diabetes and family history of myocardial infarction or stroke). See table 2 for the risk over the total follow-up period (0–14 years).
