Coefficients with 95% CI are presented (n = 3500). M1: adjusted for age (5-year categories) and sex. M2: M1, excluding hospital stays during the last 12 months (n = 494 subjects excluded). M3: M1, plus hs-CRP, leukocytes and fibrinogen (Clauss) included as quintiles (n = 68 subjects with missing data excluded). M4: M1, PF4/heparin EIA OD > 0.5 and OD inhibited > 40% by high heparin (n = 106 subjects excluded).

SHIP indicates Study of Health in Pomerania; Q, quintile; CI, confidence interval; and hs-CRP, high-sensitive C-reactive protein.

P < .05;

P < .01; and
