  1. a: Model 1, crude model without adjusting for any confounders; b1: Model 2 in subcohort A, adjusted for age, smoking, alcohol intake, the components of MetS, blood uric acid, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, haemoglobin and white blood cell count; b2: Model 2 in subcohort B, adjusted for age, smoking, alanine aminotransferase, serum creatinine and white blood cell count. CEA Carcinoembryonic antigen; Hyper-CEA Elevated serum CEA level above the reference range; Norm-CEA Within the normal reference ranges; MetS Metabolic syndrome; Non-MetS Without metabolic syndrome
