Univariate: Pearson's correlation analysis, Multivariate: Stepwise multiple regression analysis.

Parameters with F value > 4.0 were subsequently entered into the regression analysis as independent variables.

BW: Body weight, BMI: body mass index, WC: waist circumference, Log-eVFA: estimated visceral fat area,

SBP: systolic blood pressure, DBP: diastolic blood pressure, HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol,

LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, HbA1c: Hemoglobin A1c, eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate,

UA: uric acid.
