Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The independent variable is the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverage.

The intake data were obtained using a computer-assisted, multiple-pass 24-hour recall based on the Automated Multiple-Pass Method (AMPM) developed by the Agricultural Research Service of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The recall was divided into five phases. In the first phase the respondents provided a quick account of what foods and drinks they consumed from mid-night to mid-night on the day prior to the interview. Next a series of questions were used to prompt the respondent for commonly forgotten items such as snacks. Then the respondents reported the time and eating occasion for each reported food. After that, detailed information of the food and drinks reported in the previous phases was collected. A final probe was performed before the end of the 24-hour recall to prompt for missing items for the last time.

Food and beverage items consumed by the participants were categorized into major food groups based on the key ingredients of the food by the Australian Bureau of Statistics. In this analysis, sugar-sweetened beverages included fruit drinks, cordial/mixer, soft drinks, energy drinks, and other sweetened beverages.
