*

Multivariable model 1 adjusted for age, race/ethnicity and sex.

Multivariable model 2 adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, sex, income, smoking, daily calories consumed, per cent of calories from saturated fat, BMI (except obesity model) and systolic BP (albuminuria model only).

Odds ratio determined from logistic regression.
