aHRs were adjusted for age, sex (for total subjects only), income level, and additionally mutually adjusted for lifestyle-related factors (all categorical variables).

bPinteraction: p value of interaction between lifestyle-related factor and sex

cRisk factors were defined as BMI≥25 kg/m2, FBG≥100 mg/dL, mainly vegetable/mainly meat meal diet, former/current smoking, ≥3 times/week alcohol consumption, or no physical activity; and HRs were adjusted for age, sex (for total subjects only), and income level (all categorical variables).

Abbreviations: HR, hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval; PAR, population attributable risk; BMI, body mass index; FBG, fasting blood glucose
