Table 5. Framingham Risk Score and obesity adjusted odds ratios for CVD and CHD mortality.

Without adjustment Adjusted for Framingham risk score Adjusted for Framingham risk score and central obesity
CVD Deaths
Framingham risk score 3.39 (0–3.96) 2.94 (2.47–3.50)
(per 10% increase) (p<0.001) (p<0.001)
Waist to Hip ratio 1.50 (1.18–1.90)
(per 0.1 increase) (p = 0.001)
Recreational physical activity categories:
 Medium vs. Low 0.48 (0.27–0.85) 0.81 (0.44–1.51) 0.85 (0.45–1.58)
(p = 0.012) (p = 0.513) (p = 0.605)
 High vs. Low 0.16 (0.06–0.43) 0.33 (0.12–0.91) 0.35 (0.13–0.98)
(p<0.001) (p = 0.033) (p = 0.046)
CHD Deaths
Framingham risk score 5.03 (3.96–6.39) 3.98 (3.02–5.26)
(per 10% increase) (p<0.001) (p<0.001)
Waist to Hip ratio 1.60 (1.20–2.15)
(per 0.1 increase) (p = 0.002)
Recreational physical activity categories:
 Medium vs. Low 0.49 (0.24–0.98) 0.88 (0.43–1.81) 0.94 (0.45–1.92)
(p = 0.043) (p = 0.733) (p = 0.856)
 High vs. Low 0.12 (0.03–0.48) 0.24 (0.06–0.99) 0.26 (0.06–1.09)
(p = 0.003) (p = 0.049) (p = 0.066)

Predictive effect is presented as odds-ratio and associated 95% confidence intervals, before and after adjustment for covariates.
