*per 1 STD increase in metabolite index (Met Index).

†Model 1 adjusted for age, gender, BMI, study center, and Hispanic/Latino background in HCHS/SOL, and adjusted for age, gender, BMI, study site (site WFU and UCLA are combined due to low cell count), and race in MESA.

‡Model 2 adjusted for all covariates in model 1, in HCHS/SOL model 2 additionally adjusted for alcohol usage, smoking status, physical activity and diet; in MESA, model 2 additionally adjusted for alcohol usage and smoking status.

§Model 3 adjusted for all covariates in model 2, in HCHS/SOL, model 3 additionally adjusted for diabetes, hypertension, fasting glucose, fasting insulin, HOMA-IR, HDL, LDL, total cholesterol, triglycerides, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure; in MESA, model 3 additionally adjusted for hypertension indicator, fasting glucose, HDL, LDL, cholesterol, triglycerides, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure.
