  1. CI confidence interval, OR Odd ratio, Q quintile, PIR poverty-income ratio
  2. Adjusted covariates: urinary creatinine concentration, age (years), gender (male or female) and race (non-Hispanic Black, non-Hispanic White, Mexican American, or others), education (under high school, high school, or above high school), PIR (< 1.52, 1.52 to 3.48, or > 3.48), physical activity (never, moderate, or vigorous), smoking (non-smoker, former smoker, or active smoker), and drinking (abstainer or active drinker) status, total energy intake, and total fat intake
  3. aBiomarkers were log-transformed and individually included in the multivariable logistic regression model
  4. bAdjusted p-values were assessed by Benjamini-Hochberg procedure
