Totally 553 subjects (203 males and 350 females) with complete laboratory data, including plasma glucose, lipid profile, blood pressure, and serum insulin were analyzed in this study. Metabolic syndrome was diagnosed according to the definition proposed by International Diabetes Federation in 2005.
