Factors in Female Centenarians

The prevalence of hypertension, high level of TC, TG, LDL-C and low level of HDL-C were demonstrated according to anthropometric indices (BMI, WC, WHR, WHtR)

The cut-off points for dyslipidemia were plasma TC ≥ 240 mg/dl and/or use of medications to lower blood cholesterol for high TC, TG ≥ 200 mg/dl for high TG, HDL-C<40 mg/dl for low HDL-C, and LDL-C ≥ 160 mg/dl and/or use of medications to lower blood cholesterol for high LDL-C

According to the level of anthropometric indices, two-class classification was used for grouping (BMI (>17.5 VS ≤ 17.5), WC (>80 VS ≤ 80), WHR (>0.8 VS ≤ 0.8), WHtR (>0.6 VS ≤ 0.6))

The odds ratios were presented as unadjusted and further adjusted for age, illiterate, windowed, Han nationality, smoker, alcohol drinker, tea drinker and No. of children

aA very few centenarian with concentration of TG higher than 200 mg/dl in WHR ≤ 0.8 group thus the data showed infinity in this column
