Model 1 is adjusted for baseline characteristics, including age, BMI (body mass index), WC (waist circumference), HC (hip circumference), SBP (systolic blood pressure), and DBP (diastolic blood pressure); Model 2 is further adjusted for habits, including being exsmoker, current smoker, ex-betel nut chewer, current betel nut chewer, exdrinker, and current drinker; Model 3 is further adjusted for comorbidities, including DM (diabetes mellitus), hypertension, dyslipidemia, CAD (coronary artery disease), and stroke; Model 4 is further adjusted for biochemistry data, including fasting glucose, CHOL(T) ( total cholesterol), LDL (low density lipoprotein), HDL (high density lipoprotein), and TG (triglycerides).
