  1. Values shown are adjusted means (95% confidence intervals).
  2. Linear regression models were used, with adjustments for age, sex, smoking status, alcohol intake, energy intake, and moderate-vigorous physical activity.
  3. BMI body mass index, VFA visceral fat area, SBP systolic blood pressure, DBP diastolic blood pressure, HOMA-IR homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance, TG triglyceride, HDL-C high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, LDL-C low-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
  4. aLog-transformed values were used, and the adjusted means were back-transformed.
