Demographic data comprises of age, gender, family history of diabetes including parents and sibling, female with history of having baby weighing more than 4 kg, gestational diabetes, and history or current of dyslipidemia (triglycerides \>150 mg/dl, LDL-C ≥ 100 mg/dl, HDL-c \< 35 mg/dl), and behavior data were smoking habit, physical inactivity (less than 150 min/week or 3 day/week) were collected by interview.
