The modification effects of HBV infection on relationships of MetS and its constituents with AFB1 exposure and MC-LR exposure; and the modification effects of MC-LR exposure on relationships of MetS and its constituents with AFB1 exposure. (a) The modification effects of HBV infection on the association between MetS  and Aflatoxin B1 exposure. (b) The modification effects of HBV infection on the association between MetS and MC-LR exposure. (c) The modification effects of MC-LR exposure on the association between the MetS and Aflatoxin B1 exposure. The higher AFB1 exposure significantly decreased the risk of MetS no matter whether the HBV infection was positive or negative. For people with the higher AFB1 exposure, the number of the constituents of MetS with decreased risk was higher in those without HBV infection than in those with HBV infection. For people either with or without HBV infection, those exposed to the higher or lower MC-LR levels showed no difference in the risk of MetS and all its constituents.
