Abbreviations: MetS, metabolic syndrome; BMI, body mass index; WC, waist circumference; FBS fasting blood sugar; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; TG, triglyceride; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein; AdipoQ, adiponectin; Hcy, homocysteine; hs-CRP, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; IL-6, interleukin-6; IL-10, interleukin-10.

Data are n (%), median (IQR), or mean±SD.

The p-values are for the paired t-test (normal variables) and Wilcoxon signed-rank test (skewed variables).
