ORs were expressed in SD units. P values were from logistic regression analysis. Those highlighted in bold indicate statistical significance (bilateral p<0.05). Model 1 adjusted for age, trunk fat mass, arm fat mass and leg fat mass, other than the variable in the model. Model 2 adjusted for age and visceral fat region, other than the variable in the model.
BP, blood pressure; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; IFG, impaired fasting glucose; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglycerides.
