  1. CI: Confidence interval. CVD: Cardiovascular Diseases. HAPIEE: Health, Alcohol and Psychosocial Factors in Eastern Europe, Kaunas sample; HR: Hazard Ratio. Ref.: Reference. SD: Standard Deviation. Model 0: not adjusted. Model 1: adjusted for baseline age. Model 2: adjusted for all variables in Model 1 plus sociodemographic factors (education, marital status, social activity, and employment status). Model 3: adjusted for all variables in Model 2 plus psychological variables (depressive symptoms, cognitive functions, psychological well-being, and self-rated quality of life), lifestyle variables (smoking habits, alcohol consumption frequency, and physical activity), biologic variables (systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting glucose, and body mass index), and existing illness at baseline (diabetes, ischemic heart disease, and stroke). Bold typeface indicates significance. Standard deviation (SD) of grip strength: 8.67 for men and 6.09 for women
