  1. Data are odds ratios (95% CI) of multivariate logistic regression
  2. Model 1: crude
  3. Model 2: sex and age adjustments
  4. Model 3: adjusted for model 2, smoking, BMI, hypertension, diabetes and medication usage (antilipemic and antidiabetic agents)
  5. CHD coronary heart disease, OR odds ratios, CI confidence intervals, T1 the first TyG index quartile, T4 the fourth TyG index quartile
