AT-LDL: α1-antitrypsin-low-density lipoprotein, MetS: metabolic syndrome, LDL: low-density lipoprotein, HDL: high-density lipoprotein. r: simple linear regression coefficient between α1-AT-LDL and another variable, β: multiple linear regression coefficient in a multivariate analysis for α1-AT-LDL after controlling for all the listed variables except for diastolic blood pressure. Triglyceride and adiponectin were log-transformed for analyses. Significance level: * P ≤ 0.05, ** P ≤ 0.01.
