Model 1, adjusted for age, sex, education levels, Townsend deprivation index, and assessment centers.
Model 2, adjusted for model 1 plus alcohol intake, smoking status, body mass index, the number of long-term morbidities, polygenic risk score, genotyping array, and the first 40 principal components of ancestry.
