25(OH)D, 25-hydroxyvitamin D; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; WC, waist circumference; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; TG, triglycerides; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; FBG, fasting blood glucose.

Model 1, adjusted for age and sex; model 2, adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, income per family member, place of residence, physical activity and passive rest in front of the computer or TV.

P<0.05, statistically significant difference.
