Ow/Ob: overweight or obese; CED: chronic energy deficiency; MetS: metabolic syndrome; MnD: micronutrient deficiency. Values are odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). If the 95% CI does not include 1.0, it means statistically significant. All models were controlled for variables shown in the first column. Reference category: healthy and normal weight ().
