Note. Adjusted for sex, age, civil status, education level, and living place. Sex-interactions adopted men as reference. Reference for the interactions was the same reference of the models without interactions and men. OR, odds ratio. CI, confidence interval.

Smoking: 2.0, p = 0.981. 5 healthy lifestyle behaviors: 8.1, p = 0.428. Obesity—physical activity: 9.3, p = 0.315. Fruit/vegetable consumption: 12.0, p = 0.150. Sleep: 4.5, p = 0.811. Alcohol consumption: 16.0, p = 0.042. Smoking: 11.9, p = 0.155. 5 healthy lifestyle behaviors: 15.4, p = 0.052.
