Fig. 1 Relative risks (expressed in logarithmic scale) of waist girth quartiles for incident dyslipidemia (D, n = 711), elevated BP (n = 425), and MS (n = 491) in regression models including fasting insulin level, and for incident CHD (n = 1559) in women. Bars for lower limits of 95% CI are provided; others were of borderline significance. Note the asymptotic shape of the risk curve across the quartiles.

Fig. 2 Multiple adjusted HRs of waist girth quartiles as independent predictors of dyslipidemia (n = 711), elevated BP (n = 425), MS (n = 491), and diabetes (n = 864) in regression models including fasting insulin level in women. Hazard ratios of a decade of age and relative risk of doubling of fasting insulin are provided additionally to compare the magnitudes. Bars for lower limits of 95% CI are provided.
