Published online September 24, 2013. doi:10.7326/0003-4819-159-10-201311190-00719 Hazard ratios for cardiovascular disease and coronary heart disease incidence and mortality, by urinary arsenic concentration (n= 3575). Solid lines represent adjusted hazard ratios based on restricted quadratic splines for the log-transformed sum of inorganic and methylated arsenic species, with knots at the 10th, 50th, and 90th percentiles (3.8, 9.7, and 24.0 µg/g creatinine, respectively). The dotted lines represent upper and lower 95% CIs. The reference was set at the 10th percentile of the arsenic distribution (3.8 µg/g creatinine). Adjustment factors were the same as those for model 2 in Tables 1 and 2. The bars represent a histogram of urinary arsenic distribution among participants (the extreme tails of the histogram were truncated because only 1 participant had a urinary arsenic level 54.6 µg/g creatinine).

Published online September 24, 2013. doi:10.7326/0003-4819-159-10-201311190-00719 Hazard ratios and 95% CIs for cardiovascular disease and coronary heart disease mortality when an interquartile range of urinary arsenic concentrations is compared, by participant characteristics at baseline (n= 3575). Hazard ratios for cardiovascular disease and coronary heart disease mortality were stratified by each subgroup of interest, and associated P values for interaction were obtained from stratified Cox proportional hazards models with log-transformed arsenic (sum of inorganic and methylated arsenic species) as a continuous variable, adjusted for the same covariates as those in model 2 in 1 and 2. The interquartile range of urinary arsenic concentrations was 5.8 to 15.7 µg/g creatinine. For cardiovascular disease and coronary heart disease mortality hazard ratios by methylation indices (below and above the median proportions of inorganic arsenic, MMA, and DMA), the data set was restricted to participants with detectable inorganic arsenic, MMA, and DMA concentrations (n = 3381). For this subset, the corresponding urinary arsenic interquartile range was 6.1 to 16.2 µg/g creatinine. DMA = dimethylarsinate; HR = hazard ratio; MMA = monomethylarsonate.

Hazard ratios for cardiovascular disease incidence (fatal and nonfatal events) were stratified by each subgroup of interest, and associated P values for interaction were obtained from stratified Cox proportional hazards models with log-transformed arsenic (sum of inorganic and methylated arsenic species) as a continuous variable, adjusted for the same covariates as those in model 2 in the main analysis.
