Individual and combined contributions of non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity to cardiovascular disease risk: Results of a prospective study using the Kailuan cohort.

Cumulative incidence of CVD in the various groups During a follow-up period of 5.04 ± 2.80 years, the cumulative incidences of CVD in the groups with High non-HDL-C and normal baPWV, Normal non-HDL-C and high baPWV, and High both non-HDL-C and baPWV showed a trend to increase vs. the group with normal non-HDL-C and normal baPWV (cumulative incidences of CVD for each group: 1.09, 2.96, 7.29, and 10.01; incidence densities for each group: 2.11/1,000, 3.59/1,000, 4.44/1,000, and 6.06/1,000 person-years; respectively); and the differences in the cumulative incidences of the endpoint events among the groups were statistically significant (log-rank test; all P < 0.05); as shown in Figure 2 . 3.3.
