The association between dietary nutrient intake and GC use between −1 year to inclusion, inclusion to +1 year and −1 year to +1 year
| Time period | Nutrient* | OR† | 95% CI | p Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| −1 year to Inclusion | Alcohol (g) | 0.39 | 0.16 to 0.98 | 0.045 |
| Inclusion to +1 year | Alcohol (g) | 0.31 | 0.12 to 0.79 | 0.015 |
| Vitamin D (µg)‡ | 2.70 | 1.01 to 7.18 | 0.046 | |
| −1 year to +1 year | Alcohol (g) | 0.28 | 0.10 to 0.79 | 0.016 |
| Vitamin D (µg)‡ | 2.85 | 1.00 to 8.11 | 0.050 |
*All nutrients are dichotomised into lower (<median) intake and higher (>median) intake. Low intake=referent group.
†OR adjusted for age and gender.
‡Not significant after adjusting for calcium/vitamin D supplementation.
GC, glucocorticoid.
