BP, Blood pressure.
Top row indicates difference associated with the presence of each individual component adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, gender, SES, physical activity, smoking, wake time study day, and study site. Each component is included in a separate model.
Second row indicates difference associated with the presence of each individual component in model adjusted for all other components shown plus covariates listed above.
Remaining rows show results for specific pairs or clusters of components. The components in the pair or cluster are indicated by “X” in the corresponding columns. The rightmost column indicates the mean differences in the average daily AUC (in nmol/liter · d) associated with the presence of the pair or the cluster. For example, in the first row under “Two components,” the average AUC was 718.68 nmol/liter · d higher among persons with both high blood pressure and high glucose compared to those who did not have high levels of both components. In the first row under “Four components,” persons who simultaneously had high BP, low HDL, high glucose, and high WC had an average total AUC that was 2378.97 nmol/liter · d higher than those who did not have all four components. Each model is adjusted for main effects of all five MetS components and covariates listed above.
P < 0.05.
