All variables were entered in the regression models as continuous variables. While BMI revealed independent associations with all body composition variables (P < 0.01), age did not present any independent relation with the studied variables. ** Variance explained by age, BMI, and the studied variable. * P < 0.05. †P < 0.01. |
