adjustment, stratification, restriction) for a variable that (a) increases rather than
decreases net bias or (b) affects precision without affecting bias. ...

Sci. 2011; 66A (3): 341–348. This article explores the association between obesity, defined
as body mass index (BMI)≥ 30 kg/m2, and hand grip strength. The authors report that obese
men and women (n= 2,021) had lower grip strength than nonobese participants. ...

We agree with Drs. Keevil and Khaw that adjusting for baseline body weight when modeling
the effect of obesity history on handgrip strength using analysis of covariance is not without
problems. However, unlike in the example by Drs. Keevil and Khaw based on cross- ...

... Overadjustment bias can be easily dealt with: the variables that are overadjusted for should be
removed from the multivari- ate analyses. We would therefore be interested in the results from
a multivariate analysis that is unlikely to suffer from over- adjustment. ...
