Quartile ranges are as follows: Quartile 1 = −6.27 to −1.26; Quartile 2 = −1.25 to 0.74; Quartile 3: 0.74 to 2.63; and Quartile 4 = 2.64 to 5.89. Column percentages may not equal 100% due to rounding. DII Quartile 1 – 4 cut-points are <−1.26, <0.71, <2.50, and ≥2.50, respectively.
Adjustments: Metabolic Syndrome = age and sex; Waist Circumference (males: ≥102 cm; females: ≥88 cm) = sex and years of police work; Blood Pressure (systolic: ≥130 mmHg; diastolic: ≥85 mmHg or reported diagnosed hypertension or antihypertensive medication) = age, sex, and alcohol drinks per week; HDL Cholesterol (males: <40 mg/dL; females: <50 mg/dL or reported treatment with nicotinic acid or fibrates) = race, sex, and alcohol drinks per week; Triglycerides (≥150 mg/dL) = race and sex; Glucose (≥100 mg/dL or reported treatment for diabetes) = age and sex.
