Abbreviations: BMI=body mass index; CI=confidence interval; OPMD=oral potentially malignant disorder; OR=odds ratio.
OR adjusted for sex, age, socioeconomic status, β-carotene-containing fruits and vegetable portion, BMI, smoking, betel chewing and alcohol drinking.
The sum does not add to the total because past and occasional chewers were excluded from the analysis.
