¹B, unstandardized coefficient; BAT^+/−, presence or absence of metabolically active brown adipose tissue at disease-free follow-up; glucocorticoids^+/−, presence or absence of glucocorticoids in treatment regimen; SAT, subcutaneous adipose tissue; VAT, visceral adipose tissue; β, standardized coefficient; σ, SE of unstandardized coefficient.

²Winter (November, December, and January) compared with other seasons.
