The study was aimed at comparing four different anthropometric parameters to cardiometabolic risk factors in overweight and obese subjects (Body Mass Index (BMI)≥25)
the present study was focused to compare the level of statistical association among four different anthropometric parameters, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist to height ratio (WHtR) and neck circumference (NC) and the cardiovascular (CV) risk factors most commonly evaluated in the clinical practice such as systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and fasting glucose, lipid (triglycerides, total, High-density lipoprotein (HDL) and Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol), insulin, Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR), uric acid, 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), c-reactive protein (CRP), white blood cells and platelet number in a population of 1214 apparently healthy subjects with overweight and obesity subjects
6,296 studies on the registry are indexed under Obesity; 1,692 are open to participants now.
