*Incidence rates were calculated as the number of observed incident cases per 1000 patient-years.
†Model 1 is the unadjusted analyses.
‡Model 2 adjusts for age, sex, body mass index, hypertension, dyslipidemia, chronic kidney disease, cancer, and personality traits (scores of sociability, warmth, diligence, curiosity, and nervousness).
CVD, cardiovascular disease; IR, incidence rate.
