Subscapular skinfold at > 1to 2 years: 1 cohort study; 1 analysis (n = 155) in boys and girls aged 2 years | ||||||||
Magarey 2001 2 years; regression |
Subscapular skinfold | z‐score | 2 | Total fat intake (single 3‐day weighed dietary record at baseline and 2 years) | NR | n overall = 155; regression result. β = 0.081, P > 0.1, R2 = 0.47, P < 0.001.

aDirection refers to whether there was a positive (+: exposure and outcome moved in the same direction), inverse/negative (‐: exposure and outcome moved in opposite directions) or zero (0: no association) between total fat intake and the outcome;
B: unstandardised beta‐coefficient; β: standardised beta‐coefficient; n: number of participants; NR: not reported.
