  1. Model 1 adjusted for variables: age, gender, BMI, abdominal circumference, alcohol and cigarette consumption status, education status, SBP, DBP, FBG, ALT, AST, total cholesterol, SDB, CVD and ethnic. Model 2 further adjusted for serum creatinine, on the basis of model 1.
  2. Abbreviation: PSQI: Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index PAC, plasma aldosterone concentration; SDB, sleep disordered breathing; CVD, cardiovascular disease; ALT, glutamic-pyruvic transaminase; AST, glutamic oxalacetic transaminase; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; FBG, fasting blood glucose.
