Hazard ratio’s (95% CI) for the mean differences of BMI (kg/m2), WC (cm), WHR, and ABSI between baseline and follow-up with the risk of lung cancer.

HR, Hazard Ratio; CI, Confidence Interval; LC, lung cancer; ABSI, A Body Shape Index.
Model 1: Adjusted for sex and age.
Model 2: Adjusted for sex, age, cohort ((RS-I/RS-II/RS-III), physical activity (continuous), alcohol intake (continuous), pack-years (continuous), education (high/low), WCRF adherence score (continuous), and diabetes mellitus (yes/no). WC and WHR were additionally adjusted for difference in BMI between baseline and follow-up. Thereby, all hazard ratios were adjusted for their own baseline measurement to correct for regression to the mean (35).
