Abstract
<p>The multivariate models used person-time as the underlying time metric and included the following covariates: age at entry (continuous), sex (male, female), race/ethnicity (white, black, Hispanic, Asian), smoking status (never, former, current), and alcohol intake (0, <1, <3, ≥3 drinks per day). Participants with a waist circumference of <80 cm (women) or <94 cm (men) served as the reference group.</p
