Data are presented as the mean±SD or median (interquartile range). TSH – thyroid stimulating hormone; FT3 – free triiodothyronine; FT4 – free thyroxine; ALB – albumin; ALT – alanine aminotransferase; GGT – glutamyl aminotransferase; PLT – platelet; Cre – creatinine; HDL – high-density lipoprotein; TG – triglyceride total; UA – uric acid; LDL-C – low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; FPG – fasting plasma glucose; TyG – triglyceride-glucose; eGFR – estimated glomerular filtration rate. * # |
