Clinical characteristics for all participants, stratified by TLR4+3725G/C (rs11536889) genotype and smoking status.

a<p>Adiponectin was measured in 467 individuals.</p>b<p>Fasting insulin was measured in 730 individuals.</p><p>Differences in the continuous traits values among the genotype groups were analyzed by ANOVA (log variable transformation was performed when variables showed non normal distribution). p<0.05 is indicated by *.</p><p>BMI, body mass index; WC, waist circumference; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; TC, total cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; TG, triglycerides; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; HOMA-IR, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance.
