: Smoking index was categorized by the quartile distribution of pack-year based on the distribution of diabetes-free population at baseline.

: Alcohol index was categorized by the quartile distribution of alcohol intake weight based on the distribution of the diabetes-free population at baseline.

: Exercise last more than 30 minutes was defined as a valid exercise; Occasionally exercise was defined as exercise less than 3 times per week; Often exercise is defined as at least 3 times per week, each time lasts more than 30 minutes.
