  1. OR: Odds ratio; CI: Confidence interval; RAE = Retinol Activity Equivalents; TE= Tocopherol Equivalents
  2. 1Only micronutrients from food sources are considered.
  3. 2Nutrient intakes are adjusted for energy intake using the residual method [56]
  4. 3Base model; adjusted for age (years) and sex (male/female)
  5. 4Fully-adjusted model; adjusted for age (years), sex (male/female), gastroesophageal reflux disease symptoms (yes/no), body mass index (≤24.9, >24.9 kg/m2), smoking status (never/former/current), smoking intensity and duration (<20, ≥20 pack-years), physical activity (MET) (light/heavy), and education level (illiterate, literate).
  6. 5Reference category
  7. 6The P-value for trend was calculated using the linear regression coefficient for the tertiles of micronutrient intake
