PA: physical activity; MetS: metabolic syndrome; BRF: behavior risk factors; OR: odd ratios; CI: confidence intervals. Unhealthy behaviors include 5 items of smoking, alcohol abuse, lack PA, like salty taste, and abnormal sleep duration. There were 3 missing data. aAdjusted for age, gender, education, place of residence, and family history. Used multiple regression model.
