Line graphs represent the directions of interaction effect of central obesity and hypertension on adipokines including TNF-α (A) and adiponectin (B) in Hong Kong Chinese women categorized into four groups, including (1) Non-central obese subjects with normal blood pressure (NO_NBP; n = 105), (2) Non-central obese subjects with hypertension (NO_HBP; n = 102), (3) Central obese subjects with normal blood pressure (O_NBP; n = 74), and (4) Central obese subjects with hypertension (O_HBP; n = 106). Subjects with hypertension were defined as having systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg, and subjects with central obesity were defined as having a waist circumference ≥80 cm.
