Multivariable models are adjusted for age (years), cigarettes per day, and duration of smoking (years), alcohol intake (≤2.8, >2.8 to ≤11, >11 to ≤26, >26 to ≤44, >44 g/day), anti-HBc, HBsAg, anti-HCV, body mass index (BMI, <18.5, 18.5 to <25, 25 to <30, 30 to <35, ≥35 kg/m2), and education (elementary education or less, more than elementary education).

b

Restricted to participants who did not report a diagnosis of diabetes at baseline.

c

Median and interquartile range (IQR) among controls.
