  1. Data are presented as odds ratio (95% confidence interval)
  2. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant
  3. Crude: Unadjusted
  4. Model 1: adjusted for age and sex
  5. Model 2: Model 1 + household income, parent’s education, sleep hours, and physical activity
  6. Model 3: Model 2 + adjusted for total energy intake
