*Hypertension27: systolic blood pressure≥140 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure≥90 mm Hg without using any antihypertensive drugs.
†Hyperglycaemia and diabetes: fasting blood glucose is more than 6.10 mmol/L, diagnosed as hyperglycaemia. Fasting blood glucose was more than 7.0 mmol/L, or had a history of diabetes. Fasting plasma glucose<7.0mmol/L was diagnosed as diabetes.
‡Dyslipidaemia: total TC≥6.22 mmol/L is hypercholesterolaemia, TG≥2.26 mmol/L is hypertriglyceridaemia, LDL cholesterol≥4.14 mmol/L is high-density and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and HDL cholesterol≤ 1.04 mmol/L is low-density and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. TC≥5.17 mmol/L, TG≥1.70 mmol/L, LDL≥3.37 mmol/L, HDL≤1.04 mmol/L can be considered as dyslipidaemia.
§Metabolic syndrome28: (1) abdominal obesity (male waist circumference≥90 cm, female waist circumference≥85 cm); (2) elevated blood glucose: fasting blood glucose is more than 6.1 mmol/L and/or has previously diagnosed type 2 diabetes or has received corresponding treatment; (3) elevated blood pressure: systolic blood pressure>130 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure>85 mm Hg, have received corresponding treatment or have previously been diagnosed with hypertension; (4) the level of triglyceride increased: fasting triglyceride≥1.7 mmol/L; (5) the level of HDL cholesterol decreased: fasting HDL cholesterol≤1.04 mmol/l.
HDL, high-density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride.
