Association of Visceral Fat Index and Percentage Body Fat and Anthropometric Measures with Myocardial Infarction and Stroke
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of bioelectrical obesity indices (percentage body fat, PBF; visceral fat index, VFI) on cardiovascular disease (CVD) and evaluate the optimal cut-off values for myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke. Method: A community-based cross-sectional study including 6027 males and 8874 females aged ≥ 35 years was conducted in 66 sample sites by multistage...
متن کاملDoes body adiposity index evaluate percentage of body fat?
Introduction: The purpose of the present study was to determine whether the novel marker, body adiposity index (BAI), is accurate to measure percentage of body fat (PBF). Materials and methods: Seventy-eight males were undergone anthropometric examination. PBF was calculated by BAI and measured using InBody 3.0. Results: Significant correlation was found between BAI and PBF (r = 0.751; P < ...

متن کاملPrediction of whole-body fat percentage and visceral adipose tissue mass from five anthropometric variables
BACKGROUND The conventional measurement of obesity utilises the body mass index (BMI) criterion. Although there are benefits to this method, there is concern that not all individuals at risk of obesity-associated medical conditions are being identified. Whole-body fat percentage (%FM), and specifically visceral adipose tissue (VAT) mass, are correlated with and potentially implicated in disease...
