Body size and shape z scores and mortality hazard.

Results of Cox proportional hazard modeling for mortality risk with ABSI, BMI, or WC z scores taken as linear predictors. Ranges in parentheses are 95% confidence intervals. The restricted models are unadjusted but included only those people who had all the measurements required for the adjusted model. The adjusted models included as additional predictors sex, ethnicity, smoking, presence of diabetes, blood pressure, and serum cholesterol.
