Adiposity measures are transformed to age-adjusted, sex-specific z scores. Models were adjusted for sex, pubertal status, Hispanic background, field center, nativity, parental education level, annual family income, and self-reported physical activity. Prepubertal children (Tanner stage I) were excluded due to small sample size (n ≤ 50). Subjects missing Tanner staging were also excluded.
