Note: Anti-inflammatory diet was divided into four groups using quartiles (Q1 0–7, Q2 8–12, Q3 13–17, Q4 18–40)
^a Adjusted for sex (male, female), age (< 80, < 90, ≥90), residence (city, town, rural), economic status (good, general, poor), widowed (yes, no), sleep duration (< 7 h, 7–8 h, > 8 h), drinking status (current, former, never), smoking status (current, former, never), body type (underweight, normal, overweight, obese)
^b Further adjusted for education (illiterate, primary school, middle school or above)
