Table 3.

The adjusted hazard ratios for CHD, CVD, and all-cause mortality according to categories of BMI in 36,509 participants from the CAC consortium.

Categories of BMI	Model 1	Model 2	Model 3
CHD Mortality

BMI <21	1.2 (0.65, 2.4)	1.2 (0.64, 2.4)	1.3 (0.65, 2.4)
BMI 21-24.9	1.0	1.0	1.0
BMI 25-29.9	0.92 (0.66, 1.3)	0.97 (0.70, 1.4)	0.93 (0.67, 1.3)
BMI ≥30	1.5 (1.04, 2.1)	1.6 (1.2, 2.3)	1.5 (1.04, 2.1)

CVD Mortality

BMI <21	1.1 (0.74, 1.8)	1.2 (0.75, 1.8)	1.2 (0.76, 1.8)
BMI 21-24.9	1.0	1.0	1.0
BMI 25-29.9	0.95 (0.75, 1.2)	0.97 (0.77, 1.2)	0.94 (0.75, 1.2)
BMI ≥30	1.4 (1.1, 1.8)	1.5 (1.1, 1.9)	1.3 (1.04, 1.7)

All-Cause Mortality

BMI <21	1.3 ( 1.1, 1.7)	1.4 ( 1.1, 1.7)	1.4 ( 1.1, 1.7)
BMI 21-24.9	1.0	1.0	1.0
BMI 25-29.9	0.92 (0.81, 1.04)	0.93 (0.82, 1.1)	0.92 (0.81, 1.0)
BMI ≥30	1.2 (1.1, 1.4)	1.3 ( 1.1, 1.4)	1.2 ( 1.1, 1.4)

Model 1 is adjusted for age and sex

Model 2 is adjusted for age, sex, scan site, smoking status, and family history.

Model 3 is adjusted for the variables in model 2 plus CAC categories

BMI = Body Mass Index, CAC = Coronary Artery Calcium, CHD = Coronary Heart Disease, CVD = Cardiovascular Disease
