CI: confidence interval. p values were determined by complex sample multiple logistic regression analysis. Cluster One: diet dominant in fruits and fish; Cluster Two: diet dominant in meats; Cluster Three: diet dominant in white rice and kimchi. Model One was unadjusted, but, involved of dietary pattern and residential area together. Model Two was adjusted for gender (men = 1, women = 0), age (continuous), marital status (living alone = 1, living together = 0), education (≤elementary school = 3, middle school = 2, high school = 1, ≥college = 0), income (low = 3, low-medium = 2, high-medium = 1, high = 0), muscular exercise (no = 1, yes = 0), smoking status (current smoking = 1, past / non-smoking = 0), high-risk drinking (no = 1, yes = 0), hypertension (no = 1, yes = 0), diabetes mellitus (no = 1, yes = 0), dyslipidemia (no = 1, yes = 0), arthritis (no = 1, yes = 0), and body mass index (continuous).
