The yearly-rates of change (\(\Delta\)) in TG, HDL-C and Gutt index by quartiles of their baseline-values. General linear model was used to compare yearly change rates in TG, HDL-C and Gutt index across quartiles of their baseline values, with adjustment for age, gender, smoking, alcohol consumption, regular exercise, BMI and caloric intake. BMI, body mass index; TG, fasting triglycerides; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; Gutt index = [75,000 + (fasting glucose − 2-h glucose) × 0.19 × body weight]/(120 × log [(fasting insulin + 2-h insulin)/2] × [(fasting glucose + 2-h glucose)/2])
