Model 1: crude model; Model 2: additionally adjusted for age and gender; Model 3a: additionally adjusted for BMI, HDL-C, LDL-C, TG, systolic BP, and diabetes; Model 3b: adjusted for the same set of covariates with model 3a in the same population with model 4; Model 4: additionally controlled for education, smoking, alcohol consumption, and physical activity.s
