aStratified model for age, sex, income, and region of residence.
bFinal model was adjusted for obesity, smoking status (current smoker compared to nonsmoker or past smoker), frequency of alcohol consumption (≥ 1 time a week compared to < 1 time a week), CCI score, relative humidity, SO2, NO2, O3, CO, and PM10 using the backward selection method.
