Compared to the PD patients with normal ECG findings, those with NSSTTAs had HRs (95% CIs) for all-cause mortality and CVM of 1.70 (1.06–2.72) and 2.87 (1.55–5.30) after adjusting for age, sex, BMI, premorbid diabetes, and hypertension in model 1; 1.80 (1.10–2.92) and 2.87 (1.53–5.37) after further adjusting for hemoglobin, albumin, uric acid, triglyceride, HDL-C, LDL-C, and potassium in model 2; and 1.81 (1.11–2.95) and 2.86 (1.52–5.37) after further adjusting for anti-hypertensive medication use in model 3, respectively (Table 2). Here, ALB is linked to hypertensive disorder.
