Abstract
WC shows the best association with the metabolic syndrome, while BFM shows the best association with high CHD risk. BMI shows weaker relationships with the metabolic syndrome, and high CHD risk. Our findings suggest that BFM can be used as a complementary measure to identify CHD risk in adult subjects.
