Mean hip circumferences in quintiles 1–5 were 89.6, 92.3, 94.1, 96.0, and 99.8 cm, respectively in men and 90.8, 92.9, 95.1, 97.3, and 102.6 cm, respectively in women.

Model 1: unadjusted model with hip circumference.

Model 2: controlled for waist circumference.

Model 3: controlled for waist circumference and BMI.

Model 4: controlled for waist circumference, BMI, education, income, occupational status, energy intake, physical activity, current smoker status, alcohol consumption, hypertension, and a family history of type 2 diabetes.
