Hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) from Cox regression analysis. The full model is adjusted for age, sex, BMI, fasting plasma glucose, 2-h plasma glucose, cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. The first quintile (< 20%) containing 783 individuals were considered as reference. The whole sample size was 4,003 individuals.
