  • Model A was adjusted for age, sex and elapsed time since the first visit.

  • Model B: Model A+further adjusted for education and physical activity.

  • Model C: Model B+further adjusted for urinary cotinine and ambient PM10 concentrations.

  • Model D: Model C+further adjusted for obesity, diabetes, hypertension and HDL-cholesterol.

  • Model E: Model D—deductible adjustment for diabetes.

  • Change in glucose, insulin and HOMA for 1 unit ln-1-OHP increase.

  • 1-OHP, 1-hydroxypyrene; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; HOMA, homoeostatic model assessment; IR, insulin resistance; PM10, particulate matter ≤10 μm in diameter.
