Compared with the lowest tertile, the second tertile of the healthy dietary pattern had significantly associated with decrease risk of T2D in the crude model (OR: 0.51, 95% Confidence interval [CI]: 0.29–0.9; P for trend = 0.018), Model II that adjusted for sex, age, marriage, education (OR: 0.5, 95% CI: 0.27–0.9; P for trend = 0.019), Model III that adjusted for BMI, WC, cigarette smoking, and physical activity (OR: 0.56, 95% CI: 0.23–1.4 P for trend = 0.048), and in the final fully adjusted Model IV, the association was protective but marginally significant (OR: 0.72, 95% CI: 0.21–2.48; P for trend = 0.064).
