  1. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01
  2. *All of the models were constructed using three-level mixed-effects linear regression
  3. †Model 1 adjusted for age, gender, living area, individual income, education level, physical activity, smoking status, alcohol consumption, antihypertensive medication usage. Model 2 additionally adjusted for total energy intake, sodium intake and BMI
