Table 6 Multivariate model of factors related to the presence of subclinical atherosclerosis among 361 individuals without the main risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) (excluding a total of 333 patients = 166 patients with metabolic syndrome, 20 obese patients, 77 hypertensive patients, 24 individuals with total cholesterol ≥ 240 mg /dL and 46 smokers) (Model A) and among 333 patients with risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (Model B)
