Sources of prevalence for daily smoking were taken from Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS) [17], Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) [16], World Health Survey (WHS) [21]; RR men = 1·71 (99% CI:1·20–2·70) and RR women = 2·44 (99% CI:1·54–4·17) were taken from our continuous dose-response meta-regression model.
Prevalences for daily alcohol drinking (men: 40+ grams/day; women: 20+ grams/day) were taken from WHS [21] and where data on large nationally representative surveys were available [16], [18]; RR men = 1·84 (99% CI:1·32–2·83) and RR women = 1·61 (99% CI:1·11–2·49) were taken from our continuous dose-response meta-regression model.
Prevalence on diabetes were taken from International Diabetes Federation (2011) [19]; RR men = 2.87 (99%CI:1·44–5.69) and RR women = 2·68 (99% CI: 1·35–5.32) were taken from our D-L meta analysis.
Prevalence on low BMI (<18·5 kg/m2) were taken from DHS [16]; RR men = 2·12 (99% CI: 1·41–3.31) and RR women = 2·00 (99% CI: 1·43–3·24) were taken our continuous dose-response meta-regression model.
