F0-150

Student’s t-test (for age) and the χ2 test (for all other variables) were used to compare the values for case patients and controls.

F0-151

Hypertension was defined as a systolic blood pressure ≥140 mm Hg at the time of admission to the hospital.

F0-152

Hypercholesterolemia was defined as a total serum cholesterol level ≥5.72 mmol/L (220 mg/dL) at the time of admission to the hospital.

F0-153

Family history was defined as at least one first-degree relative who had suffered from CVD and/or CHD thromboembolic episodes.
