  1. Estimated change (regression coefficient B and 95 % confidence interval) in various components of metabolic syndrome (WC, TG, HDL, blood pressure, S-glucose) as the dependent variable, by an increasing consumption of fatty fish and lean fish, respectively (never, <1, 1, 2–3 or more per week). The Tromsø Study: Tromsø 4
  2. WC waist circumference, S-TG S-triglycerides, HDL-C high density lipoprotein-cholesterol, SBP systolic blood pressure, DBP diastolic blood pressure
  3. a Multivariable adjusted age, energy intake
