Potential impact of the joint association of total bilirubin and gamma-glutamyltransferase with metabolic syndrome

Table 4 Hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals of total bilirubin to gamma-glutamyltransferase ratio for incident metabolic syndrome

	Unadjusted	Model 1	Model 2
(A) Men and women
Total bilirubin to gamma-glutamyltransferase ratio, per 10.0 increment	0.73 (0.70–0.76)	0.84 (0.80–0.87)	0.89 (0.85–0.92)
(B) Men
Total bilirubin to gamma-glutamyltransferase ratio, per 10.0 increment	0.76 (0.72–0.80)	0.83 (0.79–0.88)	0.89 (0.84–0.94)
(C) Women
Total bilirubin to gamma-glutamyltransferase ratio, per 10.0 increment	0.74 (0.69–0.79)	0.85 (0.79–0.90)	0.90 (0.84–0.96)

Model 1: adjusted for age, body mass index, exercise, and smoking status. Model 2: adjusted for model 1 and the number of metabolic syndrome factors
