OR          95%CI         p-value

 

Thigh SF

0.889    0.810–0.975     0.013

 

Grip strength

0.838    0.718–0.979     0.026

 

Male

  1. Variables including age, BMI, grip strength, subscapular SF, midaxillary SF, thigh SF, smoking, alcohol drinking were analyzed using multivariable stepwise logistic regression (Forward LR). Variables in females are entered in order as below: thigh SF, grip strength. Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index; SF, skinfold. Abbreviation: OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval
