^†

Indicates if coefficients are significantly different between models above and below threshold (p<0.01)

Indicates covariates factors with a significant association (indicated as dependent variable – significant independent variable)

For all models where Study was significant, PHPBC study (17) had a higher intercept than the Insulin study (16).

Models for males above ≥23.4% percent fat: TG – cigarette use status -current smoker > never = cessation; HDL-Study; Chol – Study; LDL-C Study; SBP – Study; DBP – Study; Glucose – Study

Models for males below <23.4% percent fat: HDL-C – Study, current smoker > Chol – Study; LDL-c – Study; SBP – Study; DBP – Race AA>Caucasian
