Results of binary logistic regression analysis are presented as the odds ratio (OR) of being in MetS status decrease in circulating. BMI: body mass index; WHR: waist-to-hip ratio; FAT (%): the percentage of fat in vivo; SBP: systolic blood pressure; DBP: diastolic blood pressure; lipid profile: including total cholesterol, FFA, triglyceride, and LDL- and HDL-cholesterol. Hormone: including SHBG, DHEAS, E2, TEST, LH, FSH, PRL, and PROG.
