Gender-specific associations between abdominal adipose mass and bone mineral density in the middle-aged US population

Fig. 1. Title: Associations of abdominal adipose tissue with the risk of low BMD assessed by logistic regression. Legend: Logistic model was used and adjusted for age, race, education, family income-to-poverty ratio, smoking and drinking status, leisure activity, body mass index, calcium supplement use, vitamin D supplement use, and diabetes, and for women, hormone replacement therapy, and menopause status

Fig. 2. A Title: Associations of abdominal adipose tissue with the risk of low BMD assessed by a GAM in men. Legend: A weighted generalized additive model and a smooth curve fitting were performed to assess the relationship between SAT, TAT, VAT and risk of low BMD at femoral neck and spine in men. Blue lines represent 95% confidence intervals. Covariates, including age, race, education, family income-to-poverty ratio, smoking and drinking status, leisure activity, body mass index, calcium supplement use, vitamin D supplement use, and diabetes were adjusted in the models. B Title: Associations of abdominal adipose tissue with the risk of low BMD assessed by a generalized additive model in women. Legend: A weighted generalized additive model (GAM) and a smooth curve fitting were performed to assess the relationship between SAT, TAT, VAT and risk of low BMD at femoral neck and spine in women. Blue lines represent 95% confidence intervals. Covariates, including age, race, education, family income-to-poverty ratio, smoking and drinking status, leisure activity, body mass index, calcium supplement use, vitamin D supplement use, and diabetes, and for women, hormone replacement therapy, and…
