Figure 1From: Caregivers’ hair cortisol: a possible biomarker of chronic stress is associated with obesity measures among children with disabilitiesScatter plot of caregiver hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) by child obesity measures. a) Pearson’s correlation coefficient for caregiver HCC (log-transformed) and child weight: r = 0.25, P = 0.023. b) Pearson’s correlation coefficient for caregiver HCC (log-transformed) and child body mass index: r = 0.23, P = 0.037. c) Pearson’s correlation coefficient for caregiver HCC (log-transformed) and child neck circumference: r = 0.32; P = 0.003. d) Pearson’s correlation coefficient for caregiver HCC (log-transformed) and child waist circumference: r = 0.28; P = 0.009. e) Pearson’s correlation coefficient for caregiver HCC (log-transformed) and child hip circumference: r = 0.23; P = 0.037. f) Pearson’s correlation coefficient for caregiver HCC (log-transformed) and child waist-to-hip ratio: r = 0.14; P = 0.193. g) Pearson’s correlation coefficient for caregiver HCC (log-transformed) and child body fat percentage: r = 0.16; P = 0.188.Back to article page
