All associations were tested using logistic regression adjusting for age, gender, smoking habits and physical activity. BMI: body mass index, HT: hypertension; LDL-C: Low density lipoprotein-cholesterol; T2DM: Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Bonferroni correction was made multiplying by 7 comparisons (Pc). Significant p values are in bold.
