Three logistic regression models were applied: model 1, adjusted for age; model 2, adjusted for age, race, marital status, driving experience in years, and education; and model 3, further adjusted for age, race, marital status, driving experience in years, education, smoking, alcohol and physical activity. BMI, Body Mass index; WC, Waist circumference; WHtR, waist-to-height Ratio; BRI, body roundness index; MetS, metabolic syndrome. HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; FBG, fasting blood glucose; WC, waist circumference.
