Figure 2

Comparison of differences in adiposity associated with 1-SD higher metabolic biomarkers vs. log-hazard ratios (HRs) for incident type 2 diabetes associated with 1-SD higher metabolic biomarkers, stratified by (a) BMI and (b) waist circumference. Estimates on the x-axis are the coefficients of linear regression of metabolic biomarkers on (a) BMI and (b) waist circumference. Estimates on the y-axis are the coefficients of Cox regression of type 2 diabetes on metabolic biomarkers. All estimates are adjusted for age, sex, study area, education, fasting time, smoking, alcohol, physical activity, dietary factors and family history of diabetes. BMI body mass index, WC waist circumference.
