Boxplots showing BMI, total and trunk fat percentages distribution in Arabs (N = 1518, gray) and Persians (N = 948, blue). The center line of the boxplots indicates the median, limits of the box indicate the 25th and 75th percentile. The whiskers represent either 1.5 times the interquartile range (IQR) or the maximum/minimum data point if they are within 1.5 times the IQR. The mean trait value (µ) stratified by ethnic group and the p-values, evaluated by means of the Wilcoxon’s test, are reported above each panel. Sex-stratified p-value within each ethnic group are reported within each panel.
