The average values ± standard deviation of the age, height, weight, BMI, Ab. perimeter, basal glycemia, total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, blood pressure, and serum vitamin D levels of the total population and by municipalities are shown. P is the value of statistical significance of the comparison (ANOVA test) between municipalities that is representative if it is less than 0.05∗. The averages in the same row that does not share the same letter of superscript are different. BMI = body mass index; Ab. perimeter = abdominal perimeter; BP = blood pressure in mmHg.
