Adjusted relative risks (95% confidence interval) of symptomatic gall stone disease according to quintiles of dietary intakes of different types of carbohydrate* among US men in the Health Professionals Follow up Study, 1986–1998
| Quintiles | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 (lowest) | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 (highest) | p for trend | |
| Model 1, relative risk adjusted for age. | ||||||
| Model 2, the multivariate model included the same covariates as in model 3 in tables 2, 3. | ||||||
| *Carbohydrates were classified by their chemical structure. All types of carbohydrate included simultaneously. Types of carbohydrate were mutually exclusive; fructose does not include contribution from sucrose. | ||||||
