Multivariate analysis (ANCOVA). Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) values in males and females (a) and cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) values in males and females (b). Values by number of MetS components. Adjusted by age. baPWV differences by number of MetS components in males between 0 and 1 components and 2, 3, and 4 components (p < 0.01); in females between 1 component and 3, 4, and 5 components (p < 0.01). Post-hoc contrasts were performed using a Bonferroni test. baPWV brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity, CAVI cardio-ankle vascular index, MetS metabolic syndrome
