*p < 0.05, †p < 0.01, ‡p < 0.001.
ORga: gender-age-adjusted odds ratio; ORfm: odds ratios adjusted for all factors (full model, retaining only significant factors (p < 0.05)).
Number of subjects : 1503 for BMIsr and 1436 for BMIm.
ORga for BMIm and BMIsr: in bold type values significant for one and non-significant for another; in italics both values were significant but they differed substantially.
Note: No significant factors were found for underweight defined by BMIsr and BMIm. They are not presented.
