BMI-adjusted Waist Circumference

8K3K17

BMI‑adjusted waist circumference is your body’s spotlight on where fat settles around your middle—capturing central adiposity independent of overall body size, and flagging risks that BMI alone can miss. Research shows that variations near genes regulating fat distribution and adipocyte biology (like LYPLAL1 and RSPO3...
