From: Ability of ecological deprivation indices to measure social inequalities in a French cohort
Associations between individual educational level and three area-based deprivation indices with overweight status. ORa (95% CI) = odd ratio adjusted for age (95% confidence interval) from generalized estimating equation (GEE) methods. Educational level (EL) was categorized in 4 classes (EL-1: 5-level university; EL-2: 3−/4-level university diploma; EL-3: high school to 2-level university diploma; EL-4: ≤ high school diploma), with 5-level university diploma as the reference. FDep: French Deprivation index, FEDI: French European Deprivation Index. Q1: least deprived quintile (reference); Q5: most deprived quintile. Overweight status was defined as a Body Mass Index <25 kg/m2 (ref) vs. ≥25 kg/m2. p-values for trend were significant (<0.01) for the four indicators
