Mean values and the standard errors (SE) in each genotype group (CC, CT, and TT) are indicated. These values were adjusted for sex, age, age², and walking speed. P-values of T allele copy numbers (0, 1, and 2) in multiple linear regression models are indicated.
aVFA, VFA adjusted for BMI; BMI, body mass index; VFA, visceral fat area; WA, waist circumference.
