LPL and metabolic syndrome: Results of the multiple logistic regression model, used to determine the significance of alleles of the two SNPs as a probable independent risk factor for MetS, demonstrated that heterozygous (TG + GG) of ADIPOQ + 45T > G (odds ratio (OR) = 1.98; 95%CI, 1.14–3.44; p = 0.015), and homozygous (P+P+) of LPL PvuII (OR = 2.10; 95%CI, 1.04–4.26; p = 0.038) carriers had an increased risk for development of MetS compared with those wild-type or the most frequent genotypes (Table 4).
