Table 4 Risk for newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes according to carbohydrate, glycaemic load and dietary fibre*
(Unadjusted and adjusted odds ratios and 95 % confidence intervals)
T2DM, type 2 diabetes mellitus.
* The adjusted model controlled for age (years in quintiles), sex (males, females), BMI (continuous), family history of diabetes (three categories), cigarette smoking (categorised as non-smokers and habitual smokers), alcohol (never, past and current consumers), physical activity (strenuous, no exercise, sedentary) and income in Indian rupees ( < 2000, 2000–5000, >5000–10 000, >10 000). There was additional adjustment for dietary fibre (for the carbohydrate and glycaemic load models) and for carbohydrate (for the fibre model).
† Tests for linear trend were conducted across increasing categories by treating the medians of intake in categories as continuous variables.
‡ Energy adjusted using the residual method.
The value for the ‘percentage of newly diagnosed T2DM’ in the 4th quartile of Glycemic Load should be 11·7 % and not ‘2·6 %’.
The corrected table is supplied below.
