(A) CEC-Radiolabeled. (B) CEC-Fluorescent. MetS indicates metabolic syndrome. 0 = participants without any MetS component. 1 = participants with 1 MetS component. 2 = participants with 2 MetS component. 3 = participants with 3 MetS component. 4–5 = participants with 4 or 5 MetS component. (n/N) = total number of participants with MetS components/total number of participants. Odds ratio = standardized odds ratio. Odds ratio adjusted for age, sex, ethnicity, physical activity, current smoking, current drinking, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, post-menopausal status, and cardiovascular disease history.
