UHR: uric acid to HDL cholesterol ratio. UHR tertile 1, <211.21 μmol/mmol; UHR tertile 2, 211.21–295.04 μmol/mmol; UHR tertile 3, >295.04 μmol/mmol. Model 1: unadjusted analyses. Model 2: adjusted for gender, age, BMI, SBP, and DBP; Model 3: adjusted for gender, age, BMI, SBP, DBP, FIN, ALT, AST, γ-GGT, TC, TG, LDL, FBG, BUN, Cr, and HOMA-IR.
