Table 1 Characteristics of the study population according to the presence of DM

Values are presented as mean±standard deviation or number (%).

DM, diabetes mellitus; BMI, body mass index; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; HOMA-β, homeostasis model assessment β-cell; LDL-C, low density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL-C, high density lipoprotein cholesterol; ASM, appendicular skeletal mass.

Table 2 Partial correlations between leg fat mass and parameters

Values are partial correlation coefficients between variables and leg fat mass adjusted for age.

BMI, body mass index; HbA1c, glycosylated hemoglobin; HDL-C, high density lipoprotein cholesterol; HOMA-β, homeostasis model assessment β-cell.

aP<0.001, bP<0.05, cP<0.01.

Table 3 Adjusted odds ratios with 95% confidence interval for diabetes mellitus according to sex-specific leg fat mass quartiles

Quartile 1: ≤2.97 kg in men and ≤4.54 kg in women; Quartile 2: 2.98 to 3.81 kg in men and 4.55 to 5.57 kg in women; Quartile 3: 3.82 to 4.66 kg in men and 5.58 to 6.71 kg in women; Quartile 4: ≥4.67 kg in men and ≥6.72 kg in women.

aData adjusted for age, body mass index, leg muscle mass, current smoking status, regular exercise, total cholesterol, triglyceride, systolic blood pressure, and daily total energy intake, bData adjusted for age, body mass index, leg muscle mass, current smoking status, regular exercise, total cholesterol, triglyceride, systolic blood pressure, daily total energy intake, and hormone replacement therapy status.

Table 4 Adjusted odds ratios with 95% confidence interval for diabetes mellitus according to body composition group

We subdivided men and women in each age group into four groups according to leg fat mass and leg muscle mass, which were halved into low or high values by the median value.

LF-LM, low fat-low muscle group; LF-HM, low fat-high muscle group; HF-LM, high fat-low muscle group; HF-HM, high fat-high muscle group.

aData adjusted for age, body mass index, current smoking status, regular exercise, total cholesterol, triglyceride, systolic blood pressure, and daily total energy intake, bData adjusted for age, body mass index, current smoking status, regular exercise, total cholesterol, triglyceride, systolic blood pressure, daily total energy intake, and hormone replacement therapy status.
