  1. Models constructed with cardiovascular measures as dependent variables and obesity parameters as independent variables. β coefficient is per 1 SD of the obesity parameter. Model 1 is adjusted for age, sex, systolic blood pressure, heart rate, serum creatinine, fasting glucose, hypertension treatment, diabetes treatment, smoking, alcohol, and exercise. Model 2 is adjusted for model 1 plus waist circumference, body mass index, and pericardial adipose tissue as continuous variables.
