Data were expressed as the mean ± SD or as percentages. MS: metabolic syndrome, non-MS: nonmetabolic syndrome, WC: waist circumference, BMI: body mass index, SBP: systolic blood pressure, DBP: diastolic blood pressure, FPG: fasting plasma glucose, CHOL: total cholesterol, TG: triglyceride, LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, WBC: white blood cells, Hb: hemoglobin, Hct: hematocrit, and PLT: platelet. Smoking and alcohol refer to individuals who smoke cigarettes and consume alcohol.
