Notes: vita_g = Serum retinol = 1_deficient (<0.30 mg/L), 2_sufficient (0.30 mg/L ~ 0.70 mg/L), 3_over-sufficient (>0.70 mg/L). vite_g = Serum α-tocopherol = 1_deficienct (<5.00 mg/L), 2_sufficient (5.00 mg/L ~ 20.00 mg/L), 3_over-sufficient (>20.00 mg/L). Whole group = Subjects who tested for 3 or more of the male or female metabolic syndrome criteria. MET_g0 = fraction of 2 or less metabolic syndrome criteria matched/whole group. MET_g1 = fraction of 3 or more metabolic syndrome criteria matched/whole group. Male metabolic syndrome criteria = 3 or more of the 1~5 criteria. 1. Waist circumference = 102 cm or higher. 2. Triglyceride = 150mg/dL or higher. 3. High density lipoprotein = 40mg/dL or lower. 4. Systolic blood pressure =135mmHg or higher/or/diastolic blood pressure = 85mmHg or higher. 5. Fasting glucose = 100mg/dL or higher.
