- Notes: a Data are from logistic regression analyses adjusted for age, sex; Dashes mean variable removed from the equation by backward stepwise selection. According to the IDF definition, metabolic syndrome is existing if at least 3 of the following criteria are met: WC > 102 cm (men) or > 88 cm (women), fasting glucose > 1 mmol/l, triglycerides < 1.5 mmol/l (150 mg/dl), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) < 0.4 mmol/l(40 mg/dl) (men) or < 0.5 mmol/l(50 mg/dl) (women), blood pressure > 130/85 mmHg (13/8 CmHg), or treatment for previously recognized hypertension. Metabolic syndrome is defined using the NCEP ATP III criteria modified for Asian population
