Data are expressed as average ± standard deviation for normally distributed continuous parameters, relative frequencies within genotype for categorical features, and median with the interquartile range in brackets for nonnormally distributed continuous variables. BMI = body mass index; WC = waist circumference; HbA1c = glycated hemoglobin A1c; DM2 = type 2 diabetes mellitus; VLDL-c = very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-c = low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL-c = high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; SBP = systolic blood pressure; DBP = diastolic blood pressure; SAH = systemic arterial hypertension; CRP = C-reactive protein; TSH = thyroid-stimulating hormone; cIMT = carotid intima-media thickness.
