  • Quartiles of RFM for men: first quartile ≤20.0, second quartile=20.1–23.4, third quartile=23.5–26.3 and fourth quartile ≥26.4.

  • Quartiles of RFM for women: first quartile ≤33.1, second quartile=33.2–36.7, third quartile=36.8–39.8 and fourth quartile ≥39.9.

  • Model 1: adjusted for age and sex.

  • Model 2: adjusted for age, sex, smoking and alcohol drinking.

  • Model 3: adjusted for age, sex, smoking, alcohol drinking, uric acid, eGFR, ALT, TG, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C and FPG.

  • ALT, alamine aminotransferase; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; HDL-C, high-densitylipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; RFM, relative fat mass; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride.
