1Data represents the estimated marginal means (standard error) stratified according to the factor loadings for each dietary pattern (DP). The factor loadings were as follows: DP1 Q1 (−2.822 to −0.651), Q2 (−0.649 to −0.070), Q3 (−0.067 to 0.546), Q4 (0.553 to 4.621) and DP2 Q1 (−4.621 to −0.540), Q2 (−0.539 to 0.007), Q3 (0.010 to 0.557), and Q4 (0.563 to 4.269)

* p≤0.01 was considered significant for ANCOVA (after adjusting for covariates (sex, age, menopausal status, supplementary usage, energy intake, and cardiovascular disease risk) and pairwise comparisons with Bonferroni correction. Different superscript letters represent significant differences between quartile groups

Pairwise comparisons were not significantly different between quartile groups

BMI, body mass index; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol; HOMA-IR, homeostatic model assessment estimated insulin resistance; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol; PP, pulse pressure; RLP-C, remnant-like particle-cholesterol; SBP, systolic blood pressure; TAG, triacylglycerol; TC, total cholesterol; WC, waist circumference

The incorrect abbreviation is: DP

The correct abbreviation is: DPs.
