Data are presented as frequencies (percentages) or mean (SD) or median (IQR). Numbers that do not add up to 100% are attributable to missing data. CDAI, composite dietary antioxidant index; BMI, the body-mass index is determined as follows: the weight in kilograms (Kgs)/(height in square meters (m2); DM, diabetes mellitus; IFG, impaired fasting glycaemia; IGT, impaired glucose tolerance; CVD, cardiovascular disease; CKD, chronic kidney disease.
