(1) BMI in kg/m2; (2) reference group, BMI 18.5–24.9 kg/m2; (3) mortality is adjusted for the variables found to have significant univariate associations with congestive heart failure, CAD, diabetes, CKD, COPD, tobacco use, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, cirrhosis, PAD, CVA, or TIA; the multivariate associations of these variables with mortality are presented in the Supplementary table 5; (4) age was analyzed as a continuous variable, and 10 years was used as a unit of time for easier interpretation of OR (95% CI)
OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval, BMI body mass index, CAD coronary artery disease, CKD chronic kidney disease, COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, PAD peripheral artery disease, CVA cerebrovascular disease, TIA transient ischemic attack
