The proportions of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) or arachidonic acid (AA) in total free fatty acid were defined as EPA (%), DHA (%) and AA (%), respectively. Model 1 includes age, sex, estimated glomerular filtration rate, body mass index, white blood cell count, total energy intake, current smoking, current drinking and regular exercise. CI, confidence interval; FA, fatty acid; HOMA‐IR, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance; SD, standard deviation.
