^aPercent intakes of total added sugar were based on a percent estimate of usual intake of added sugar (g) converted into kcals and divided by total daily calories (kcals)

^bNHANES = National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey

^eModel fit- C statistic: .522 and p-value = .21. Total sample N = 5,306; prediabetes N = 3,152

^dModel fit- C statistic: .335 and p-value = .11. Total sample N = 4,617; prediabetes N = 2,735. Ns between unadjusted and adjusted models differ due to missing covariates included in the adjusted model.

^eAdjusted for age, gender, race/ethnicity, BMI, total calorie intake (kcal/day), moderate and/or vigorous physical activity, smoking status, education, family poverty to income ratio (PIR).

^fEstimate represents the risk probability for prediabetes based on mean and quartile intakes of added sugar in grams per day.

^gSE = standard error
