In addition to analyses in the whole study sample, we performed sex-stratified analyses in the fully adjusted model. We tested for effect modification by sex by including a multiplicate interaction term (plasma boron concentrations * sex) in the model. To minimize the possibility of reverse causality, we performed a sensitivity analysis excluding individuals who died within 1 year after baseline.
