Table 2. Associations Between Levine EEA and Various Outcomes.
Outcome and group | OR or HR (95% CI)a | P value |
---|---|---|
Early-onset obesity | ||
Age <20 y | 1.46 (1.19-1.78) | 2.19 × 10−4 |
Severity burden of all CHCs | ||
Overall | 1.13 (1.03-1.24) | 8.03 × 10−3 |
Aged <20 y | 1.06 (0.88-1.28) | 5.16 × 10−1 |
Aged ≥20 y | 1.21 (1.08-1.35) | 7.24 × 10−4 |
Late mortality | ||
Overall | 1.75 (1.35-2.26) | 1.90 × 10−5 |
Abbreviations: CHCs, chronic health conditions; Levine EEA, epigenetic age acceleration using the Levine clock; OR, odds ratio; HR, hazard ratio.
Cox proportional hazards regression was used for late mortality, with HR reported; logistic regression was used for other outcomes, with OR reported.
