One beverage serving is 8 ounces. Results of the three cohorts were pooled using an inverse variance–weighted, fixed-effect meta-analysis. Models were adjusted as follows. Model 1: adjusted for age and stratified by calendar year in 4-year intervals. Model 2: model 1 adjustments + race (white or nonwhite); family history of diabetes (yes/no); physical examination during the 4-year cycle (yes/no); menopausal status and postmenopausal hormone use (premenopausal, postmenopausal + current use, postmenopausal + past use, postmenopausal + never use, or missing indicator) and oral contraceptive use (never, current, past, or missing indicator); smoking status (never to never, never to current, past to past, past to current, current to past, current to current, or missing indicator); initial and change in physical activity level (MET-h/week, quintiles); initial and change in alcohol consumption (g/day, quintiles); initial BMI (<21.0, 21.0–24.9, 25.0–29.9, 30.0–31.9, ≥32.0 kg/m2); initial calorie intake (quintiles); initial and change in AHEI score (calculated without the alcohol and sugary beverage components, quintiles); initial and change in intakes of water, coffee, tea, and milk (servings/day, quintiles or tertiles); initial intakes of sugary beverages, or SSBs and fruit juices, and ASBs (servings/day; depending on the model, quintiles or tertiles); and changes in ASBs, fruit juices, SSBs, or sugary beverages (servings/day; depending on the model, quintiles).
