  1. Logistic regression models was used for analysis, with different forms of dyslipidaemia as the dependent variable and Mn-TWA levels (categorical variable) as the independent variable. No achieving LDL-lowering targets, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol targets were set according to individual ASCVD risk, and adjusted for the variables as drug status in the past 2 weeks, and alcohol intake status. According to the Chinese guideline-2016 Chinese Guideline for the Management of dyslipidaemia in Adults [28], high LDL-C was defined as Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ≥4.14 mmol/L, high TG was defined as triglycerides ≥2.3 mmol/L, high T-CHO was defined as total cholesterol ≥6.2 mmol/L, and low HDL-C was defined as High-density lipoprotein cholesterol < 1.0 mmol/L.
  2. *Model 1: Without adjusting covariates
  3. **Model 2: Adjusted for the variables as gender, seniority, WHR, hypertension, medicine intake in the past two weeks, high-fat diet frequency, egg intake frequency, drinking tea, smoking status, and drinking status
