Multivariate-adjusted HRs for the development of type 2 diabetes according to the presence or absence of metabolic syndrome and IFG. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) was defined as the presence of at least three metabolic syndrome components other than that related to FPG. Multivariate adjustment was made for age, sex, family history of diabetes, total cholesterol, alcohol intake, smoking habits, and regular exercise. The centers of the boxes are placed at the estimates of HRs. Error bars indicate 95% CIs. IFG indicates FPG levels of 5.6–6.9 mmol/l. *P < 0.001 vs. IFG (−) and MetS (+). †P < 0.001 vs. IFG (+) and MetS (−).
