Diabetic incidence and hazard ratios according to the quintile of ABSI, BMI and WC.

ABSI: a body shape index; BMI, body mass index; WC: waist circumference. Results of Cox proportional hazard modeling for diabetic incidence with ABSI, BMI or WC quintiles taken as the predictors, adjusting for age, sex, TC, LDL-C, HDL-C, TG, FPG and prevalence of hypertension. Hazard ratios are relative to the lowest quintile in each case. The between-quintile cut points are 0.0702, 0.0726, 0.0749 and 0.0777 m11/6kg−2/3 for ABSI; 21.0, 22.5, 24.1 and 25.8 kg/m2 for BMI; 0.70, 0.74, 0.78 and 0.83 m for WC.
