Estimates based on survey-generalized linear regression models assuming a Gaussian distribution for continuous outcomes (Z scores) and logistic distribution for low mental status. MetS was defined using the IDF specifications. Model 1: age and sex adjusted; model 2: model 1 plus age*MetS interaction; model 3: model 2 plus education, Hispanic/Latino background, and CES-D-10 scale.
*P < 0.05;
**P < 0.01;
***P < 0.001;
↟Interaction excluded because not significant in model 2.
