Fig. 2

Association of fat-to-muscle mass ratio (FMR) with clustered cardiometabolic risk by sex. All models were adjusted for age, physical activity, education level, smoking status, residential area, drinking, region, and menopausal status in women. Clustered cardiometabolic risk was defined as the presence of 2 or more risk factors, including hypertension, elevated blood glucose, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, and hyperuricemia. (a-d) FMR of the whole body, trunk, arm and leg in men; (e-h) FMR of the whole body, trunk, arm and leg in women. Odds ratios are reported by solid lines and 95% CIs by shaded areas. The reference point is the 50th percentile for each FMR, using four knots at the 5th, 35th, 65th, and 95th percentiles. FMR: Fat-to-muscle mass ratio; OR: odds ratio; CI: confidence interval
