  1. Values are shown as mean ± SD; The quantitative physical characteristics and clinical measurements of normal weight (NW) and overweight (OW) groups were analyzed by unpaired two-tailed Student’s t-tests; the gender difference between the NW and OW groups were analyzed by X2 test. # P < 0.05 NW vs OW group
