Note. The unadjusted and adjusted odds ratio for patients with benign adrenocortical tumors (cases) compared with those with normal adrenal glands (controls) are presented along with 95% confidence intervals for each benign abdominal neoplasm. AOR: adjusted odds ratio; adjusted for age, sex, race, smoking status, BMI, duration imaging interval, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, composite diabetes (diabetes or prediabetes), coronary artery disease, and myocardial infarction.
