  1. Data are hazard ratio (95% CI); proportional hazard Cox regression and logistic regression was used. CI, confidence interval; TG, triglyceride; LDL, low density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL, high density lipoprotein cholesterol.
  2. Model 1 was adjusted for sex, body mass index, smoking, physical activity; model 2 was additionally adjusted for total energy intake (kcal/d), total fat (g/d), total fiber (g/d).
