1 Data are presented as the means ± SDs or n (%). 2 Statistical significance was calculated with Student’s t-tests for continuous variables after log transformation and chi-square tests for categorical variables. 3 Married included married and cohabitation. 4 Data were collected from current alcohol consumers without missing responders; n = 610, 1216 in male and 220, 421 in female, respectively. 5 Data were collected from former and current smokers without missing responders; n = 189, 372 in male and 13, 24 in female, respectively. 6 Degree of obesity was categorized into four stages according to the criterion of World Health Organization (WHO) Asia-Pacific Area [21]. 7 Subjects with diagnosis in medical history.
