Interaction between OBE and BMI (Dichotomous Outcomes)

	OBE-BMI Interaction	Normal Weight: OBE (n=18) vs. NBE (n=1124)	Overweight: OBE (n=34) vs. NBE (n=1165)	Obese: OBE (n=120) vs. NBE (n=838)
Metabolic Risk Factor	p	Odds Ratio	Odds Ratio	Odds Ratio
Hypertriglyceridemia	0.004	1.4	1.0	0.9
Type 2 Diabetes	0.04	5.1	3.3	1.6
Metabolic Syndrome	0.002	3.2	1.1	1.3

Only significant interactions shown. Interactions were not significant for hypertension, low HDL cholesterol or HOMA-IR >75^th percentile

OBE = objective binge eating; NBE = non-binge eating; BMI = body mass index; HOMA-IR = homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance
