Results of a stratified analysis on men who were nonsmokers at the index date and sampling date are shown in column 7. Subsequent columns show odds ratios adjusted for traditional risk factors and for time since the event (column 8), adjusted odds ratios using only samples collected more than 2 years after the event (column 9), and adjustment for use of medication at time of sample collection (last column). 95% confidence intervals are shown in parentheses.
