Although the relationships between sentinel spectral features and markers of inflammation were all significantly attenuated when controlling for BMI (which accounted for 13%–31% of the unadjusted associations, P = 0.03 to P = 2.0 × 10 −16 ; Table 5 ), almost all of the feature-inflammation associations remained significant ( P = 0.0002 to P = 2.0 × 10 −16 ; Table 5 ), with the exception of the association between glutamine/proline betaine at IL-6, which approached significance ( β = −0.25 ± 0.08; P = 0.002; Table 5 ).
