  1. Plasma cytokine levels were ln-transformed prior to analysis, and the ORs were shown as per SD increase of the ln-transformed value of each cytokines. Model 1: Adjusted for age (continuous). Model 2: Additionally, adjusted for BMI (continuous) and smoking status (current, former and never). Model 3: Additionally adjusted for total cholesterol (continuous), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (continuous), triglycerides (continuous), fasting glucose (continuous), estimated glomerular filtration rate (continuous), systolic blood pressure (continuous), systolic blood pressure (continuous), anti-hypertensive medication (binary), and lipid-lowing medication (binary).
