Note that continuous variables are summarised as median and IQR.
*p Values were calculated using Cuzick's non-parametric trend test.
†Summarised for current smokers only, not the whole population.
‡High income was defined differently in the two cohorts corresponding to approximately top 20% in Copenhagen City Heat Study and top 10% in the Copenhagen General Population Study.
