CI: confidence interval, OR: odd ratio; Ref.: reference. Model I: adjusted for sex, and age. Model II: adjusted for sex, age, duration of obesity (years, Asian cut-off used, BMI ≥25 kg/m2), duration of diabetic mellitus (years, fasting glucose ≥126 mg/dL or medication), duration of hypercholesterolemia (years, total cholesterol ≥220 mg/dL), cigarette smoking (baseline 3 categories), alcohol drinking (baseline 3 categories), and exercise (baseline more than 30 min at least 2 times for a week, Y or N).
