Multivariate model included age, gender, body mass index, smoking, drinking, taking antihypertensive medications, dyslipidemia, and number of visits; High SDs of SBP and DBP and high CVs of SBP and DBP were defined as the highest quartile; CV, coefficients of variation; DM, diabetes; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; NGT, normal glucose tolerance; IFG, impaired fasting glucose; IGT, impaired glucose tolerance; OR, odds ratio; SBP, systolic blood pressure; SD, standard deviation.
