| a: average hearing level at frequency 500, 1000 and 2000 Hz of bilateral ears
b: average hearing level at frequency 4000, 6000 and 8000 Hz of bilateral ears
Regression coefficients: parameters controlled for age; for non-sex dependent parameters (i.e. HOMA-IR, glucose level, triglyceride level, and blood pressure), sex were also controlled.
For the components of metabolic syndrome, binary observations were used: N=0 and Y=1.
