BMI, Body mass index; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; WC, waist circumference; TC, total cholesterol; LDL‐C, low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol; hs‐CRP, high‐sensitivity C reactive protein; HDL‐C, high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol; FBG, fasting blood glucose; TG, triglyceride.
Values are presented as the mean ± SD or median and IQR for normally or non‐normally distributed variables, respectively. Student's t test and Mann–Whitney U test were used to compare differences between two groups.
