  1. Mean ± SD are shown for continuous variables and P value is calculated with t-test; % is shown for categorical variables with P value according to chi-square; TG, TG/HDL and FPG are shown as median (interquartile range) and P value according to Mann-whitney test. CVD: Cardiovascular disease, FH: family history, BMI: body mass index, WHR: waist to hip ratio, SBP: systolic blood pressure, DBP: diastolic blood pressure, FPG: fasting plasma glucose, TC: total cholesterol, LDL-C: Low-density Lipoprotein, HDL-C: High density lipoprotein, TG: triglyceride.
