^§ The number of cases (percentage)

*Figures with bold fonts represent statistical significance. * Adjusted for sex, age, obesity level, household income, regular alcohol consumption, smoking status, physical activity, and energy intake

* hypercholesterolemia meant blood total cholesterol is ≥240 mg/dL; hypertriglyceridemia meant blood triglyceride is ≥200 mg/dL; hypoHDL-cholesterolemia meant blood HDL cholesterol is ≤40 mg/dL in men and ≤ 50 mg/dL in women
