Note: Statistically significant values are highlighted in bold.

Abbreviations: 95% c.i., 95% confidence interval; AC, abdominal circumference; BMI, body mass index; CAP, controlled attenuation parameter; HbA1c, glycated hemoglobin; HDL‐C, high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol; HOMA‐IR, homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance; LDL‐C, low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol; MDS, Mediterranean diet score; OR, odds ratio; T2D, type 2 diabetes; TG, triglycerides; TSH, thyroid‐stimulating hormone.

a

At logistic regression (unadjusted). Variables were selected at Backward Stepwise Regression analysis: p‐value to leave = 0.10. Variables fitted in backward stepwise regression analysis were age, sex, ethnicity, BMI, obesity, abdominal circumference, glucose, insulin, HOMA‐IR, T2D, hypertension, LDL‐C, HDL‐C, TG, hypercholesterolemia, ferritin, TSH, MDS, MDS >7, number of alcohol drinks/week, number of soft drinks/week, hours of physical activity/week.

b

At logistic regression, adjusted for sex, ethnicity and reported variables.

c

At logistic regression, further adjustment for Levothyroxine replacement.
