Table 4.

Risks of developing diabetes mellitus according to nutrient intakes/total energy (body mass index of ≥25 kg/m2)

Hazard ratio (95% CI) P
Total energy/IBW (kcal/kg) 0.96 (0.93–1.00) 0.059
Total protein/TE (%) 1.22 (1.03–1.45) 0.025
Animal protein/TE (%) 1.20 (1.04–1.38) 0.011
Vegetable protein/TE (%) 0.82 (0.62–1.09) 0.173
Total fat/TE (%) 1.04 (0.99–1.10) 0.138
Animal fat/TE (%) 1.09 (1.02–1.17) 0.010
Vegetable fat/TE (%) 0.98 (0.91–1.05) 0.527
Total carbohydrates/TE (%) 0.98 (0.94–1.03) 0.523
Simple carbohydrates/TE (%) 0.99 (0.93–1.05) 0.696
Sugar/TE (%) 1.06 (0.98–1.14) 0.133
Fructose/TE (%) 0.94 (0.88–1.01) 0.089
Complex carbohydrates/TE (%) 0.99 (0.94–1.05) 0.726
PUFA/TE (%) 0.99 (0.84–1.15) 0.848
SFA/TE (%) 1.14 (1.00–1.30) 0.047

The hazard ratios were calculated after adjusting for age, sex, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting serum glucose and fasting immunoreactive insulin. The mean duration of the follow‐up period was 10.7 ± 6.3 years (mean ± standard deviation). CI, confidence interval; IBW, ideal body weight; PUFA, polyunsaturated fatty acids; SFA, saturated fatty acids; TE, total energy.
