Model 2: age (20-29, 30-39, 40-49; 50-59; ≥60) and race/ethnicity (Mexican American; other Hispanic; non-Hispanic white; non-Hispanic black; other races) were adjusted. Model 3: age (20-29, 30-39, 40-49; 50-59; ≥60), race/ethnicity (Mexican American; other Hispanic; non-Hispanic white; non-Hispanic black; other races), education level (under high school; high school or equivalent; above high school), income to poverty ratio (quartile groups), BMI (obese, overweight, normal), smoking status (less than 100 cigarettes; greater than or equal to 100 cigarettes), alcohol consumption status (had at least 12 alcohol drinks past one year; have less than 12 alcohol drinks past one year), hypertension (yes; no), diabetes (yes; no; borderline), ALT (quartile groups), AST (quartile groups), total calcium (quartile groups), cholesterol (quartile groups), and C-reactive protein (quartile groups) were adjusted.
