Notes.

Model 1: unadjusted simple linear regression analysis.

Model 2: adjusted age and FAT%, partial linear regression analysis.

Model 3: multiple linear stepwise regression analysis, values included for analysis were BMI, WC, SBP, DBP, FAT%, TG, HOMA2-IR and M-value.

^†Log transformed before analysis.
