- TAR trunk-to-appendicular fat ratio, TLR trunk-to-leg fat ratio, β standardized partial regression coefficient, N number, SBP systolic blood pressure, ns not significant, DBP diastolic blood pressure
- TAR was calculated as trunk fat divided by appendicular fat. TLR was calculated as trunk fat divided by leg fat. Multiple regression analysis was used after adjusting for age, height, pubic hair appearance, whole body fat, and SBP/DBP at baseline. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant
