  1. Data are the mean ± SD, median (interquartile range), or frequency counts, as appropriate. A-FABP, adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein; FBS, fasting blood glucose; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; hsCRP, high sensitivity C-reactive protein; ACEI, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor; ARB, angiotensin II receptor blocker; CCBs, calcium channel blockers.
