1The 20-y predicted risk (percentage) of diabetes calculated from logistic regression models. Unless indicated by the stratification variable, these estimates are for a nonsmoking participant, aged 56 y, who has completed 8–10 y of education, with a BMI of 25.5, a total daily MET score of 56, with a mean household income of 394,701–570,930 DKK/y, an alcohol intake of 13 g/d, and who is not taking hormone replacement therapy. DKK, Danish krone; MET, metabolic equivalent.
