| Sex (male) | 0.08 | 0.001* |
| SBP (mmHg) | 0.15 | 0.21 |
| BMI (kg/m²) | 0.12 | 0.46 |
| WC (cm) | 0.39 | <0.001* |

CIMT: carotid intima media thickness, MHO: metabolically healthy obese, BMI: body mass index, WC: waist circumference, SBP: systolic blood pressure, HOMA-IR: homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, LDL-C: low density lipoprotein cholesterol, and IGF-1: insulin-like growth factor-1. *P is significant if <0.05.
