Quintiles of hip circumference were created by using race- and sex-specific cutpoints.
Model 1 was adjusted for age, race, sex, and clinical center.
Model 2 was adjusted for model 1 variables plus waist circumference (quintiles) and BMI (quintiles).
Model 3 was adjusted for model 2 variables plus level of education (≤high school graduate, >high school graduate), current smoking status at baseline (yes, no) and pack-years of cigarette smoking (quartiles), alcohol consumption (none vs. any), family history of diabetes (yes, no, unknown), baseline menopausal status (yes, no) and baseline hormone use by women (current yes, no), Keys’ score (quintiles), cereal fiber (grams per day in quintiles), fruit and vegetable intake (servings per day in quintiles), and physical activity (Baecke sport index score in quartiles).
