OR, odds ratio; AOR, adjusted odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; RERI, relative excess risk of interaction; AP, attributable proportion of interaction; S, synergy index; TG, triglyceride; BMI, body mass index; normal: BMI < 24 kg/m2; overweight/obesity: BMI ≥ 24 kg/m2; * Adjusted for age, sex, marital status, education level, smoking, drinking, physical activity, diet, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; In the additive model, TG was presented as a categorical variable; in the multiplicative model, TG was presented as a continuous variable.
