Age, AA, SBP, DBP, FBG, HbA1C, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, TG, Scr, EPA, and DHA were skewed variables and logarithmically transformed. DBP, diastolic blood pressure; DHA, docosahexaenoic acid; DEPA, eicosapentaenoic acid; FBG, fasting blood glucose; HDL-C, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol; LDL-C, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol; PLT, platelets; SBP, systolic blood pressure; Scr, serum creatinine; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride.
