  1. n=16 074.
  2. The odds ratios were calculated referenced by the “healthy” group, using logistic regression analysis by controlling for gender, age, region, marital status, educational level, current work, family income, current smoking, current drinking, frequency of physical activity, and other chronic diseases.
  3. IBD: inflammatory bowel disease.
