Stroke was the composite of ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke.
†
Hazard ration was adjusted for age, sex, marital status, education level, smoking status, drinking status, physical activity level, salt intake, use of anti-hypertensive drug, anti-diabetic drug, lipid-lowering drug, and family history of myocardial infarction, stroke.
MetS, metabolic syndrome; CI, confidence interval.
