Results were obtained using multiple imputation for variables with missing data.

Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; SBP, systolic blood pressure.

a

Analyses include 34 participants with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and 49 participants without MetS.

b

Analyses include 27 participants with MetS and 249 participants without MetS.

Model 1 is unadjusted.

Model 2 adjusts for age, sex, and education.

Model 3 adjusts for variables in model 2 plus current smoker, physical inactivity, history of coronary heart disease, total cholesterol, and statin use.
