  1. 1)Long-term life dissatisfaction burden score: sum of life satisfaction scores in 1998, 1999, 2001 and 2005 with logarithmic transformation.
  2. 2)The final linear regression model (method: enter) included all the significant factors from models 1 and 2: marital status (0 = married/living in a partnership, 1 = living alone), sleep (0 = good, 1 = poor), social support (0 = good, 1 = poor), smoking (0 = no, 1 = yes), serum adiponectin level (continuous), metabolic syndrome (0 = no, 1 = yes), and use of statins (0 = no, 1 = yes).
