  1. BA biological age, LVMI left ventricular mass index, RWT Relative wall thickness, HR hazard ratio, CI confidence interval.
  2. Model 1 adjusted by sex, age, Model 2 adjusted by model 1 + drinking, smoking, history of hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, and stroke, Model 3 adjusted by model 2 + lipid lowering medications, antihypertension medications, oral hypoglycemic agents and insulin use. Estimates of KDMAge acceleration and PhenoAge acceleration were demonstrated per SD increase.
