Note: LG, long-lived group; non-LG, non-long-lived group; BMI: body mass index; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. TG values were presented as median (interquartile range) while other measures were presented as mean ± SD. The difference between the two groups was determined by analysis of covariance.
