a Quintile of the DII Score at baseline: Q1 indicates participants having the lowest dietary inflammatory index values, the least pro-inflammatory level; Q5 the highest, the most pro-inflammatory level. b Continuous DII score was used to determine p for trend c p value for interaction was calculated by contrasting the coefficients of the cross-product of menopausal status (pre/peri- and post-) and continuous DII score in the multivariable-adjusted time-dependent COX model. d Data are presented as hazard ratios (HRs) with correspondent 95% confidence intervals (CI). Multivariate adjusted for age (categorical); BMI (categorical); smoke (categorical); calcium intake (continuous); alcohol consumption (categorical); physical activity (categorical); energy intake (continuous).
