|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| OR (95% CI) | p | OR (95% CI) | p | ||
| A (n = 132) | 14 (10.6) | 1 | 1 | ||
| B (n = 156) | 31 (19.9) | 2.09 (1.06–4.12) | 0.033 | 1.61 (0.74–3.52) | 0.228 |

Group A, normal TG levels and normal WC; group B, normal TG levels and elevated WC; group C, elevated TG levels and normal WC; group D, elevated TG levels and elevated WC. Model 1, univariate logistic regression analysis; model 2, multiple logistic regression analysis, adjustment for sex, age, body mass index, hypertension, history of diabetes, and glycosylated hemoglobin A1c. WC, waist circumference; TG, triglyceride; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval.
