  1. Bold values denote statistical significance at the p < 0.05 level
  2. Presented are odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) from a logistic regression model with outcome diverticular disease. Models are adjusted for age, sex, total energy intake, BMI, alcohol consumption and smoking behavior. All predictor variables were standardized (mean = 0, SD = 1) before analysis
