Odds ratios of having specific risk factor per standard deviation of VAT, SAT or FM unadjusted for other adiposity variables in (A) Model 2 (demographic variables + VAT), Model 3 (demographic variables + SAT) and Model 5 (demographic variables + FM), and adjusted for other adiposity variables in (B) Model 4 (demographic variables + VAT and SAT) and (C) Model 6 (demographic variables + VAT and FM).
High triglycerides, triglycerides ⩾150 mg dl−1; Low HDL, HDL <50 mg dl−1 (women), HDL <40 mg dl−1 (men); Diabetes, glucose ⩾126 mg dl−1 or reported diabetes; High BP, systolic BP ⩾140 mm Hg or diastolic BP ⩾90 mm Hg or reported hypertension. 2+ Risk factors, having two or more of high triglyceride, low HDL, diabetes or high BP.
