Note: BMI = Body mass index; CVD-RF = cardiovascular disease risk factor. Values are unstandardized coefficient (standard error, p-value) from linear regression models with significance corrected for multiple comparisons at p < .01. Bolded terms and values denote variables of interest for this study, not significance levels.
