OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval. aData are shown as prevalence (95% confidence interval), and all estimates were weighted using the China Population Census in 2010. Overweight and obesity were defined according to the Chinese criteria: overweight, 24.0 ≤ BMI ≤ 27.9 kg/m2 and obesity, BMI ≥ 28.0 kg/m2. bAdjusted for all other factors in the table.
