  1. Continuous variables are expressed as mean ± SD. Categori cal variables are expressed as percentag es
  2. The P value of the continuous variables was calculated by the independent samples t test. The P value of the categorical variables was calculated by χ2 test
  3. TG triglyceride, TC total cholesterol, HDL-C high density lipoprotein-cholesterol, LDL-C low density lipoprotein-cholesterol
