All models were adjusted for age, sex, social class, education attainment, smoking status, alcohol consumption and physical activity level
aFor SSB, category 1–3 indicates lowest = “less often/never”, 1–3 times/month or once/week; category 4–6 indicates intermediate = 2–4 or 5–6 times/week or once/day, and category 7–9 indicates highest intake = 2–3, 4–5 or ≥ 6/day. Indices of adiposity and age were entered as continuous variables
bFor calculations of attenuation, see footnote in Table 3
