Hazard ratios (HRs) were adjusted for age at recruitment (in years), year of recruitment (1993–1995, 1995–1998), dialect group (Hokkien, Cantonese), level of education in categories (no formal education, primary school, secondary school or higher), total energy intake (in kilocalories per day), smoking status (never, ex-smokers, current smokers), moderate physical activity (none, 2–3 h weekly, 4+ h weekly), dietary calcium intake (quartiles, in milligrams/1,000 kcal/day), dietary soy isoflavones intake (quartiles, in milligrams/1,000 kcal/day), menopausal status (yes, no), use of hormone replacement therapy at recruitment (yes, no), and history of diabetes mellitus and stroke

HRs were adjusted for the all variables listed above plus body mass index (<20, 20–24, 24–28, ≥28 kg/m2) except history diabetes mellitus
