Table 3– Correlation coefficients between dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry-assessed fat and lean mass measures in males and females at the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) year 20 examination

Fat and lean mass components	Males	Females
Subjects n	1103	1422
Total fat *verus* total lean mass	0.52	0.77
Truncal fat *versus* truncal lean mass	0.53	0.73
Arm fat *versus* arm lean mass	0.38	0.67
Leg fat *versus* leg lean mass	0.53	0.72

Body mass index tertile cut points used in this analysis were <25.5, 25.5–30.2 and ≥30.3 kg·m⁻². The p-values for all correlation coefficients in the table were <0.001. An expanded table is provided in supplementary table E2.
