Values are presented as weighted mean±standard error for continuous variables or number (weighted %) for categorical variables. Total cholesterol, triglyceride, and HDL cholesterol were log transformed for the analysis and expressed as geometric mean±standard error.

BMI, body mass index; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; BP, blood pressure.
