BOLD indicates significant at the P < 0.05 level.

*Primary analysis includes adjustment for age, sex, education, income, smoking, visceral fat, subcutaneous fat, HOMA-IR, and physical activity.

**Sample size for incident analysis is 795 for MetS and 944 for T2D, and analysis excluding women with known hormone replacement therapy is 923.
