From: Body mass index and incident coronary heart disease in women: a population-based prospective study
Adjusted relative risk (95% group-specific confidence interva; g-sCI) for coronary heart disease (CHD) incidence and mortality in relation to body mass index (BMI). Relative risks (RRs) are plotted against mean BMI in the corresponding BMI category. RR = 1.0 for women with BMI of 22.5 to 24.9 kg/m2. CHD cumulative incidence and mortality over 20 years from the age of 55 years. Spaces are provided between incidence and mortality RRs within each BMI category to distinguish their corresponding CIs.
