Figure Prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors according to the tertiles of upper body subcutaneous fat volume in (A) women and (B) men. Tertile 3 corresponds to the highest upper body subcutaneous fat volumes. The P for linear trend was <.0001 for all cardiometabolic risk factor models, except for LDL cholesterol, in which the P-values were 0.74 for women and 0.24 for men. HDL = high-density lipoprotein; IFG = impaired fasting glucose; LDL = low-density lipoprotein. The American Journal of Medicine , e1DOI: ( /j.amjmed ) Copyright © Terms and Conditions
