  1. T1, T2, and T3 refers to the first Tertile, second Tertile, and third Tertile of TyG index, respectively. Data are presented as β (95% CI) and P value. Model 1: Unadjusted; Model 2: Adjusted for sex, age, body mass index, current smoking, current drinking, and current antihypertensive treatment. TyG index, triglyceride-glucose index; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; PP, pulse pressure
