From: An African ancestry-specific nonsense variant in CD36 is associated with a higher risk of dilated cardiomyopathy

Adjustment

HR (95% CI) for the association between AFR (versus EUR) and incident DCM

Age and sex

Age, sex and hypertension

1.65 (1.42–1.92)

Age, sex and diabetes mellitus

1.70 (1.46–1.97)

Age, sex and CKD

1.70 (1.46–1.97)

Age, sex and rs3211938

1.61 (1.36–1.89)

Age, sex, diabetes mellitus, CKD and hypertension

1.58 (1.35–1.83)

1.43 (1.21–1.69)

  1. Each association was adjusted for age, sex and the bolded risk factor(s) using Cox proportional hazards with an additive model.
