Table 2.

Coefficients from linear mixed models of BMI trajectory comparing higha versus low gene risk score and eating behaviours (disinhibition and hunger) and their interactions with age, for BMI measurements at ages 45-65 years. (N=2464)

Coefficientb (95%CI) P-value
High gene risk scorec 0.88 (0.56, 1.20) <0.0001
Interaction: High gene risk score x age 0.005 (-0.010, 0.019) 0.54
High disinhibitionc 2.96 (2.66, 3.25) <0.0001
Interaction: High disinhibition x age 0.005 (-0.009, 0.020) 0.49
High hungerc 1.20 (0.82, 1.59) <0.0001
Interaction: High hunger x age 0.023 (0.008, 0.038) 0.002
a

High categories defined as being above the median score in the whole cohort.

b

Coefficients are adjusted for sex, linear (age) and curvilinear (age squared) trend and birth cohort effect on BMI trajectories.

c

Effects of high gene risk score, disinhibition and hunger shown for age 45.
