Data were expressed as standardized β (t). aP < 0.05, bP < 0.01.
Model 1 was adjusted for age, homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance, diastolic blood pressure, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and estradiol.
In model 2, all confounding factors included in model 1 were adjusted, in addition that trunk fat mass was adjusted for leg fat mass, trunk fat% was adjusted for leg fat%, leg fat mass was adjusted for trunk fat mass, leg fat% was adjusted for trunk fat%.
fat%, fat percentage; FT3, free triiodothyronine; FT4, free thyroxine; TSH, thyroid-stimulating hormone.
