  1. Excepting smoking in women, estimates are from a multivariate model containing all variables shown in the table.
  2. *Hazard ratio for active smoking in women from the PRC-USA cohort (Wu et al.)[46] after adjusting the estimate to reflect total CHD (angina, myocardial infarction, and arrest) in place of hard CHD (myocardial infarction and arrest only). See text for explanation.
  3. † 95% confidence interval for the original estimate was not published.
