Table 4 Logistic regression model between sitting time categories and body mass index, waist and neck circumference of adults in overall by country

From: Are the different cut-off points for sitting time associated with excess weight in adults? A population based study in Latin America

 

Body mass index

(0 = normal weight;

1 = excess weight)

Waist circumference

(0 = normal weight;

1 = excess weight)

Neck circumference

(0 = normal weight;

1 = excess weight)
