Demographic data of groups was divided by age in the study and all variables represented as continuous variables (mean and standard deviation) and categorical variables (frequency). Abbreviation: BMI, body mass index; BP, blood pressure; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; Hs-CRP, high sensitivity C-reactive protein; CVD, cardiovascular disease.
