The main outcomes were hypertension (systolic blood pressure [BP] ≥140 mm Hg and diastolic BP ≥90 mm Hg or use of antihypertensive medication), ISH (systolic BP ≥140 mm Hg and diastolic BP <90 mm Hg or use of antihypertensive medication), IR (homeostasis model assessment for IR value >5.9 or insulin use), and diabetes (fasting serum glucose level ≥126 mg/dL [to convert to mmol/L, multiply by 0.0555], use of insulin or oral antidiabetic medication, or physician diagnosis). Here, INS is linked to diabetes mellitus.
