  1. Data are odds ratio (95% CI) based in multivariate logistic regression
  2. Model 1: crude
  3. Model 2: sex and age adjustments
  4. Model 3: adjusted for model 2, smoking, BMI, hypertension and use of antilipemic agents and antidiabetic agents
  5. DM diabetes mellitus, OR odds ratios, CI confidence intervals, CHD coronary heart disease
  6. P < 0.05 were considered statistically significant
