Values are HRs (95% CIs), with two-sided Wald P values. Model 0: unadjusted. Model 1: age and total energy intake. Model 2: additionally ethnicity, education, household income, smoking, and alcohol. Model 3: additionally SBP, DBP, and diabetes. Time scale: years since baseline; Efron ties. Trend uses quartile number as a continuous term. HR, hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval. The corresponding secondary logistic models are retained in Table 2B.
