Ref.: reference category (without N-ERD); BMI: body mass index. #: adjusted to all variables in the model; ¶: cumulative exposure was classified from zero to three exposures calculating smoking (current or ex-smoking), secondhand smoke (smoke exposure at home or at work) and occupational exposure to vapours, gases, dusts and fumes.
