Abstract
Results: During the 6,389,818 person-years of follow-up, there were 1,174 deaths from coronary heart disease (CHD), 979 from heart failure, 366 from cardiac arrhythmia, 2,454 from total stroke, 1,357 from ischemic stroke, 1,013 from hemorrhagic stroke, and 201 from aortic aneurysm or dissection. The multivariable-adjusted model showed that individuals who “sometimes” or “often” had eczema had 0.82 (95%confidence interval (CI): 0.69–0.97) or 1.26 (95%CI: 1.01–1.56) times the risk of mortality from CHD, respectively, compared to those who “seldom” did. Individuals who “often” had 1.30 (95%CI: 1.05–1.61) times the risk of mortality from CHD, compared to those who “seldom or sometimes” did. There was no association of eczema with mortality from other CVD, or no interaction between eczema and sex or age, in relation to any CVD mortality risk.
