baPWV = brachial ankle pulse wave velocity.

Model 1: adjusted for age and sex.

Model 2: model 1 + adjusted for alcohol, smoking status, physical activity, systolic blood pressure.

Model 3: model 2 + adjusted for glucose, Triglyceride, HDL cholesterole and LDL cholesterol.

Model 4: model 3 + adjusted for waist circumference.
