BMI indicates body mass index; HLC, healthy lifestyle component; HR, hazard ratio; PA, physical activity.

a

Adjusted for age, education, study center, diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, and fasting glucose at time of enrollment.

b

Parameter estimate from analysis of maximum likelihood estimates significantly differs from that of the referent group at P<0.05.
