Specific Model Results per one unit change (point estimates). In order to make comparable across risk factors, we estimated reduction in attained BMI based on 10–90% scale.

There were 142 cofounders tested for the model and the long list of cofounders made us decide not to show and define those cofounders not presented in the final model.
