01 · The sentence it was drawn from

“In analysis of metabolites modeled continuous, choline was not associated (HR 1.05 [95% CI 0.94, 1.16]), while betaine was inversely associated (0.76 [0.67, 0.88]) and ln-TMAO was positively associated (1.11 [1.01, 1.22]) with 15-year risk of incident diabetes (Table 2).”
Quoted verbatim from Choline Metabolites and 15-Year Risk of Incident Diabetes in a Prospective Cohort of Adults: Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) Study.
