Categorical variables are presented as percentages, and continuous variables are presented as mean ± standard deviation (SD). P values for continuous variables (analysis of variance) and for categorical variables (chi-square test). Quartiles of dietary pattern are presented by Q1 (lowest), Q4 (highest). Abbreviations: HED-DP (high-energy density dietary patterns); NPW-DP (nuts, pork, and wheat-based dietary patters); VEF-DP (vegetables, eggs, and fishes based dietary patterns); DFE-DP (dairy, fruits, eggs-based dietary patterns); BER (basal metabolic rate); En%: percent of energy intake.
