Figure 3 | Combined effects of cardiorespiratory fitness and body composition. The effects of BMI (part a), waist circumference (WC, part b), and percentage body fat (BF; part c) on all-cause mortality are presented. Hazard ratios (boxes) and 95% confidence intervals are shown after adjusting for age, baseline examination year, physical activity (active or inactive), smoking status (current smoker or not), alcohol intake (>14 drinks/week or not), hypercholesterolaemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and family history of cardiovascular disease.
