From: Association between the triglyceride glucose body mass index and asthma: evidence from NHANES 2011–2018

Exposure

Model 1 OR (95% CI), P value

Model 2 OR (95% CI), P value

Model 3 OR (95% CI), P value

Method 1

   

TYG-BMI (continuous)

1.003 (1.002, 1.004) < 0.0001

1.003 (1.002, 1.005) < 0.0001

1.003 (1.001, 1.004) 0.0008

Method 2

   

TYG-BMI (continuous)

1.003 (1.002, 1.004) < 0.0001

1.003 (1.002, 1.005) < 0.0001

1.003 (1.001, 1.004) 0.0007

  1. Method 1: missing LDL data were imputed using the median, and missing alcohol consumption data were imputed using the Random Forest method
  2. Method 2: missing LDL and alcohol consumption data were interpolated using the random forest approach
