Data are range, n, or ORs (95% CI). Adjustments of covariates were performed using multiple regression analyses by cumulatively adding the following covariates into the model: model 1, age, sex, and baseline BMI; model 2, model 1 plus occupational status, smoking, physical activity, and family history of type 2 diabetes; and model 3, model 2 plus alcohol consumption and total energy intake.
