  1. By Linear regression and bivariate analysis using Pearson’s correlation coefficient considering HbA1c as a dependent variable, *: Significant
  2. BMI: Body mass index, WC: Waist circumference, TC: Total cholesterol, TG: Triglycerides, HDL-C: High-density lipoprotein cholesterol, LDL-C: Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, non-HDL-C: TC-HDL
  3. Hyper TC: TC ≥ 220 mg/dl, Hyper TG: TG ≥ 150 mg/dl respectively, Hypo-HDL: HDL-C ≤ 40 mg/dl, Hyper-LDL: LDL-C ≥ 130 mg/dl, Hyper-Non-HDL: Non-HDL-C ≥ 160 mg/dl, Higher WC: Male WC > 90 cm and Female WC > 80 cm, Higher BMI: BMI > 25 kg/m2
