  1. Data were weighted estimates, and expressed as mean (standard error) or median [percentile 25 -percentile 75] when appropriate. Education level percentage of participants completed college graduate or above, FPG fasting plasma glucose, 2 h-PG plasma glucose 2 h after OGTT, HOMA-IR homeostasis model of assessment for insulin resistance index, MET score metabolic equivalent scores *p < 0.05 compared to glucose normal
