Table 1. Clinical characteristics of EC patients treated with ICI categorized by BMI.

A Molecular subtyping was available for 437 patients. B Pre-treatment abdominal CT scans were available for 500 patients. BMI, body mass index; ECOG, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group; CPNH/TP53abn, copy number-high/TP53abnormal; CNL/NSMP, copy number-low/no specific molecular profile; MSI-H, microsatellite instability high; VAT, visceral adipose tissue; SAT, subcutaneous adipose tissue. P values were calculated using Kruskal-Wallis, One-way ANOVA, chi-squared, or Fisher’s exact tests.
