  1. Values are based on mean ± standard deviation or reported percentage. Significant items with a P value ≤ 0.05 are bolded. *P-value reported after adjusting for age, marital status, education, job, physical activity and energy intake
  2. Independent sample t test for quantitative data and χ2 test for qualitative data have been used. Subjects in the low adherence of DAQS had DAQS (< 5); high adherence: (≥ 5).
