1: adjusted for sex, age, years at university, hours of watching TV (continuous), smoking (three categories), pack-years of smoking (continuous), body mass index (continuous), physical activity (quartiles), total energy intake (continuous), adherence to the Mediterranean diet (continuous), added sugar to beverages, prevalent depression, siesta (three categories), alcohol intake (three categories), a family history of diabetes, and caffeinated coffee consumption (four categories). Abbreviations: N = total number within the category. Results were obtained from logistic regression models. p values < 0.05 were deemed as statistically significant.
