pubmed:abstractText |
Smoking is associated with lower body weight, but an increased risk of diabetes in some studies. Because smoking may increase waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), a risk factor for diabetes, we postulated that the relation between smoking and diabetes may be mediated in part by smoking-associated differences in body fat distribution.
