Figure 4 RRRs (95% CIs) for CACS Subsets in HS, AA, and AS Patients as Compared With NHW

The figure depicts the relative risk ratios (RRRs) of events for ethnic subsets with increasing coronary artery calcium scores (CACS) as compared with non-Hispanic whites (NHW). As compared with NHW, the relative risk ratio for CAC ≥1,000 is 9.0 for Hispanics (HS) (n = 1,334), 6.6 for Asians (AS) (n = 1,065), and 24 for African Americans (AA) (n = 637). CI = confidence interval.
