Based on BMI and waist circumference, the subjects were divided into Group A (normal weight), B (non-abdominal obesity) and C (abdominal obesity). Results: Compared with Group A, increased SBP, DBP, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, FINS, HOMA-IR and Ua were observed in Groups B and C, and significantly increased FPG and 2 h PG were noted in Group C (P
