Model 4 was sensitivity analysis in participants without BMI ≥ 24 kg/m². Model 4 adjusted for gender, age, drinking status, physical activity, heart diseases, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, smoking status, lipid therapy, CRP, Scr, and Cystatin C
Model 5 was sensitivity analysis in participants without hypertension. Model 5 adjusted for BMI, gender, age, drinking status, physical activity, heart diseases, diabetes mellitus, smoking status, lipid therapy, CRP, Scr, and Cystatin C
Model 6 was sensitivity analysis in participants without hypertension and BMI ≥ 24 kg/m². Model 6 adjusted for gender, age, drinking status, physical activity, heart diseases, diabetes mellitus, smoking status, lipid therapy, CRP, Scr, and Cystatin C
