Incident sepsis episodes were associated with older age (p<0.001), white race (HR 1.39; 95% CI: 1.22-1.59), lower education (p<0.001) and income (p<0.001), tobacco use (p<0.001), and alcohol use (p = 0.02). Incident sepsis episodes were associated with baseline chronic lung disease (adjusted HR 2.43; 95% CI: 2.05-2.86), peripheral artery disease (2.16; 1.58-2.95), chronic kidney disease (1.99; 1.73-2.29), myocardial infarction 1.79 (1.49-2.15), diabetes 1.78 (1.53-2.07), stroke 1.67 (1.34-2.07), deep vein thrombosis 1.63 (1.29-2.06), coronary artery disease 1.61 (1.38-1.87), hypertension 1.49 (1.29-1.74), atrial fibrillation 1.48 (1.21-1.81) and dyslipidemia 1.16 (1.01-1.34).
