Note: All estimates were calculated for every increase in and every increase in in the annual average concentrations, two-pollutant model, determined using time-dependent Cox regression. Missing information on covariates were initially represented by the previous value available of each participant. Participants without available value for representation were not eligible for data analysis depending on the covariates in the models, leading to different eligible numbers of participants in different models. The terms elevated and reduced refer to above and below normal reference range, respectively. aHR, adjusted hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval; BP, blood pressure; , number of participants with the incident outcome; FBG, fasting blood glucose; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; MetS, metabolic syndrome; , number of participants without missing variables in each model; , nitrogen dioxide; , fine particulate matter (PM with an aerodynamic diameter of ); TG, triglyceride.
Adjusted by age, sex, marital status (single/divorced/separation/widowed, married/cohabitating), education level (junior high school and below, general and vocational high school, college, master’s degree and above), smoking habits (never smoking/former smoking, secondhand smoke exposure, frequent smoking/daily smoking), alcohol drinking habits (never drinking/former drinking, occasional drinking, frequent drinking/daily drinking), sleeping time per day (, 6–8, ), fried food consumption (none, little or portion weekly, 2–3 portions weekly, portions weekly), processed food consumption (none, little or portion weekly, 2–3 portions weekly, portions weekly), and region (north, central, south).
Additionally adjusted for the covariates from Model 1 and exercise (none, little or weekly, 1–4 h weekly or once per 2–3 d; weekly or daily).
Additionally adjusted for the covariates from Model 2, baseline body mass index (, 18.5–24, ), and the initial status—baseline waist circumference for abdominal obesity cohort, baseline TG for elevated TG cohort, baseline HDL-C for reduced HDL-C cohort, baseline systolic BP and baseline diastolic BP for elevated BP cohort, baseline FBG for elevated FBG cohort.
