Association of eGDR quartlies with risk of CVD, stroke and cardiac events. Hazard ratios and 95% CIs derived from restricted cubic spline regression, with knots placed at the 5th, 35th, 65th, and 95th percentiles of the distribution of remnant cholesterol. The reference point for remnant cholesterol is the midpoint (7.38 mg/kg/min) of the reference group from categorical analysis. The lowest 1% and highest 1% of participants were not shown in the figures for small sample sizes. Hazard ratios were adjusted for the same variables as multivariable-adjusted model in Table 2
