  1. 414 male patients and 451 female patients without household income record. FBG: fasting blood glucose; SBP systolic blood pressure, DBP diastolic blood pressure, TC total cholesterol; TG triglycerides, LDL low-density lipoprotein, HDL high-density lipoprotein
  2. Continuous variables were analyzed using the Student’s t test and ANOVA. Categorical variables were analyzed using the Chi squared test and Fisher’s exact test
