Rate of eating and risk of diabetes.

OR = odds ratio; CI = confidence interval; ref = reference. Multivariate ORs for diabetes were adjusted for age (40–49, 50–64, or 65–74), body mass index (<18.5, 18.5–24.9, 25.0–29.9, or ≥30.0), family history of diabetes (no or yes), current smoking (no or yes), current alcohol drinking (no or yes), physical activity (slight, moderate, or strenuous), caloric restriction (no, yes at subject discretion, or yes due to medical diagnosis), masticatory performance (Q1, Q2, Q3 or Q4) and periodontal status (no pathological pockets (score 0, 1 and 2), periodontal pockets (score 3 and 4), or edentulous).
