Figure 3

Signed mean difference (SMD) and 95% Confidence Intervals for the base model and base plus selected terms model in the cross validation dataset and base plus selected terms model in the full dataset by weight status in girls. The base model included age, race/ethnicity (5 categories), weight, height, waist, triceps and menses. The selected terms are triceps squared, menses-triceps interaction and menses-triceps squared interaction. The y-axis is the SMD difference (prediction equation percent body fat minus DXA percent body fat). Positive values mean that the percent body fat equation overestimated the DXA percent body fat and negative values indicated that the estimation equation underestimated the DXA body fat percentage.
