Educational Status; Primary (First six years of formal education), Secondary (Second six years of formal education), and Tertiary (college of education, polytechnic, university). Alcohol intake; Never refers to participants who have never taken alcohol, while light, moderate and heavy refer to participants who consume 1—3 units, 4—13 units, and ≥ 14 units of alcohol respectively per week. Co-morbid diagnosis of diabetes mellitus and renal disease was made from history taking and self-report by study participants. Co-morbid diagnosis of tuberculosis was made through a combination of history taking and clinical examination
