Hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for incident cardiovascular (CV) events1 in the men (n = 6940) and women (n = 10 186) of the Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort (1991–2008) by categories of total index score2.

1Incident CV event was defined as non-fatal or fatal myocardial infarction or ischemic stroke, or death from ischemic heart disease.2Total index score ranged from 0 to 6 points based on adherence to six dietary components. Low score was defined as 0–1, medium score as 2–3 and high score as 4–6 points.*HRs and 95% CIs were estimated using a Cox proportional hazards regression model adjusting for dietary assessment method version, age, total energy, and season of data collection.†Additional adjustment for waist circumference, smoking status, leisure-time physical activity, and alcohol consumption.1. 新发心血管（Cardiovascular, CV）事件定义为非致死性或致死性心肌梗死、缺血性脑卒中，或缺血性心脏病所致死亡。 2. 总指数得分基于对6种膳食组分的依从性计算，取值范围为0至6分。其中低得分定义为0~1分，中等得分为2~3分，高得分为4~6分。 * 采用Cox比例风险回归模型估计风险比（Hazard Ratio, HR）及95%置信区间（95% Confidence Interval, 95% CI），校正因素包括膳食评估方法版本、年龄、总能量摄入及数据收集季节。 † 额外校正腰围、吸烟状态、闲暇时间体力活动及饮酒情况。
