Associations of average BMI and WC with risk of atrial fibrillation using restricted cubic spline regression models. Point estimates (solid line) and 95% confidence intervals (dashed lines) were obtained by restricted cubic spline models with knots at the 25th, 50th, and 75th percentiles. All models were adjusted for age, sex, physical activity, smoking status, alcohol drinking status, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, heart rate, hypertension, and diabetes. BMI, body mass index; CI, confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio; WC, waist circumference
