BMI indicates body mass index; HDL, high‐density lipoprotein; HOMA‐IR, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance; ICAM, intracellular adhesion molecule; LDL, low‐density lipoprotein; MCP‐1, monocyte chemotactic protein 1; RANTES, regulated on activation normal T‐cell expressed and secreted; SBP, systolic blood pressure; VCAM, vascular cell adhesion molecule.

a

Values are regression coefficients per 1 SD increase in CV risk factor level with 95% confidence intervals.

b

Crude model, model 1: adjusted for sex; model 2: adjusted for sex, SBP, BMI, LDL‐cholesterol level, HDL‐cholesterol level, triglyceride level and HOMA‐IR.

c

P<0.05.
