Models were adjusted for gender, age in 2010, residence, ethnicity, BMI, paternal and maternal age in 2010, paternal and maternal educational level, family size in 2018 and net household income per capita in 2018. For academic performance, due to insufficient valid samples, net household income per capita in 2018 was not adjusted. Education stage in 2018 and school location were additionally adjusted. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant
