Data are expressed as median (IQR) or mean±SD.

At follow-up survey: one-way ANOVA was used for WHtR, BMI and WC among the five glucose metabolic groups. LSD analysis was applied for the further comparisons between any two subgroups (a’=0.005). Kruskal-Wallis H analysis was applied for WHR among the five groups and Mann-Whitney U analysis was performed for the following comparisons within any two subgroups (a’=0.005).

At baseline survey: one-way ANOVA was used for all indices among the five glucose metabolic groups. LSD analysis was applied for WHtR, BMI and WHR between any two subgroups’ comparison (a’=0.005).
