Cox Hazard Regression Analysis for Overall Mortality According to Obesity Index

Obesity index	Univariate HR (95% CI)	p-value	Adjusted HR (95% CI)*	p-value
BMI	0.939 (0.884–0.998)	0.043	0.915 (0.840–0.997)	0.044
Average VAT area	1.000 (0.994–1.006)	0.888	1.003 (0.995–1.011)	0.506
Average SAT area	0.999 (0.996–1.002)	0.405	1.002 (0.997–1.007)	0.453
VAT to TAT ratio	1.020 (1.001–1.039)	0.043	1.022 (0.997–1.049)	0.091
VAT to SAT ratio	1.008 (1.001–1.016)	0.027	1.009 (1.000–1.019)	0.058

HR, hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval; BMI, body mass index; VAT, visceral adipose tissue; SAT, subcutaneous adipose tissue; TAT, total adipose tissue.

*Adjusted for age at diagnosis, sex, familial history of colorectal cancer.
