Stratification analysis of the association between mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) and subclinical atherosclerosis in women. (A) All participants were divided into subgroups based on their average age (age <62 years, age ≥62 years), body mass index (BMI <25 kg/m², BMI ≥25 kg/m²) or waist circumference (WC <88 cm or WC ≥88 cm). (B) All participants were divided into subgroups based on diabetes (yes or no), insulin resistance (yes or no) or hypertension (yes or no). Data were presented as OR and 95% CI. P values were calculated from multivariable logistic regression analysis. Adjusted for age (years), body mass index (kg/m²), current smoking (yes or no), current drinking (yes or no), physical activity (MET-hour/week), WC (cm), C-reactive protein (mg/L), total cholesterol (mmol/L), high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (mmol/L), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (mmol/L), triglycerides (mmol/L), fasting plasma glucose (mmol/L) and systolic blood pressure (mm Hg).
