In the multivariate regression model, WC, HOMA-IR, TG, HDL-C and ADRP were included as covariates. BMI did not enter into the multivariate regression due to its multi-collinearity.
Statistical significance was assumed at p < 0.05.
ADRP, adipose differentiation-related protein; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; β, regression coefficient; BMI, body mass index; CI, confidence interval; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; HbA1c, hemoglobin A1c; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HOMA-IR, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; M/F, male/female; OR, odds ratio; SBP, systolic blood pressure; SE, standard error; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride; WC, waist circumference.
