Sensitivity analysis showing the association between varying FMI cutpoints and BCR and class of obesity and BCR

Multivariable HR (95% CI) p
According to obesity categories (ref = non-obese)
 Class 1 obesity 0.94 (0.66–1.35) 0.75
 Class 2 obesity 1.38 (0.83–2.31) 0.21
 Class 3 obesity 0.66 (0.10–4.80) 0.68
According to different FMI cutpoints
 FMI >6 kg/m2 (ref ≤6 kg/m2) 0.93 (0.49–1.78) 0.82
 FMI >12 kg/m2 (ref ≤12 kg/m2) 1.35 (0.84–2.17) 0.21
 FMI >15 kg/m2 (ref ≤15 kg/m2) 0.64 (0.09–4.67) 0.67

Class 1 obesity=FMI >9–12 kg/m2, Class 2 obesity=FMI >12–15 kg/m2, Class 3 obesity=FMI >15 kg/m2. CI: confidence interval; FMI: fat mass index; HR: hazard ratio.
