Notes:*p for interaction. Model adjusted for age, gender, education, smoking, physical activity, and dietary patterns. Stratification variables were not adjusted in corresponding models. Values represent regression coefficients (95% CI) for per SD increase of serum magnesium. Bold fonts represent statistically significant regression coefficients (95% CI).
