| Variables | Men | Women | ||
| Odds ratioa | 95%CI | Odds ratioa | 95%CI | |
| Family history of diabetes (yes) | 1.7b | 1.2–2.3 | 1.8 | 1.4–2.3 |
| Blood pressure > 140/90 mmHg | 2.5 | 1.8–3.4 | 1.9 | 1.5–2.6 |
| BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 | 4.1 | 2.7–6.1 | 2.7 | 1.8–4.0 |
| Waist circumference (cm) men: >102, women: >88 | 2.7 | 1.9–3.8 | 2.9 | 2.1–4.1 |
| Low leisure time physical activity | 0.82 | 0.5–1.5 | 1.0 | 0.7–1.6 |
| Triglycerides > 2.8 mmol/l | 2.4 | 1.8–3.3 | 2.8 | 2.2–3.7 |
| HDL-C< 0.9 mmol/l | 1.1 | 0.8–1.4 | 1.6 | 1.3–2.1 |
a: Odds ratio (95% confidence interval): age-adjusted univariate logistic regression analysis.
b: all p values <0.05 except for low leisure time physical activity in both gender and HDL-C in men. BMI: body mass index, CI: confidence interval, HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
