BMI, body mass index; HDL-C, high density lipoprotein cholesterol; WC, waist circumference. Model 1 adjusted for age and sex. Model 2 further adjusted for comorbidities (coronary artery disease, cerebrovascular disease, left ventricular hypertrophy, and peripheral arterial disease).

*metabolic syndrome was defined as having elevated waist circumference (>90 and >80 cm in men and women, respectively) plus any 2 of the followings: triglyceride>150 mg/dL, HDL<40 in men or <50 mg/dL in women or receiving lipid-lowering drugs, BP≥130/85 mmHg or receiving anti-hypertensive drugs, and blood sugar ≥100 mg/dL or being diagnosed with diabetes mellitus.

Since all patients were type2 diabetes, we did not analyze the ORs for elevated plasma glucose criterion of metabolic syndrome.
