  1. BMI, body mass index; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; DM FHx, family history of diabetes; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; PCPG, 2-hour post-challenge plasma glucose; SBP, systolic blood pressure; TGs, triglycerides; VAI, visceral adiposity index; WHpR, waist-to-hip ratio; WHtR, waist-to-height ratio
  2. a. Variables are presented as mean (SD)
  3. b. For TGs geometric mean (95% CIs) has been reported since the distribution was highly skewed.
