Fig. 7 —Plot of aortic attenuation (H) versus body weight (kg) with
bivariate fits for low- and high-body mass index (BMI) groups. Regression
formula of aortic attenuation versus body weight was aortic attenuation (H) =
586–3.1 weight (kg) (p < 0.001) for low-BMI group (+,
solid fitting line) and aortic attenuation (H) = 485–1.9 weight
(kg) (p < 0.001) for high-BMI group (o, dotted fitting
line). Regression slope (H/kg) of high-BMI group (1.9 [2.6–1.1, 95%
CI]) was less steep than that for low-BMI group (3.1 [4.4–1.8]), but 95%
CIs overlap. So that regression lines can be better seen, 95% CIs are not
included in figure.
