Data are presented as median and interquartile range (IQR 25-75%) and proportions for continuous and categorical variables, respectively. Wilcoxon rank-sum test, Chi-square, and Fisher’s exact test were used to calculate the value as appropriate. was considered statistically significant. BMI: body mass index; SBP: systolic blood pressure; DBP: diastolic blood pressure; FPG: fasting plasma glucose; eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; DM: diabetes mellitus; HT: hypertension.
