Adjusted^a model was adjusted for age, urbanization, gender, marital status, work status, education level, smoking, physical activity, modern dietary pattern and energy; Adjusted^b model was adjusted for age, urbanization, gender, marital status, work status, education level, smoking, physical activity, traditional dietary pattern and energy intake. Adjusted^c was adjusted for other NCDs (known diabetes, myocardial infarction and stoke) and Adjusted^a (or adjusted^b) model
