A study of the correlation of waist circumference with metabolic risks among non-obese populations.

CONCLUSIONS: There is a correlation between the waist circumference and metabolic risks among non-obese populations, but the screening for metabolic diseases should be conducted among males with a waist circumference of over 78 cm and females with a waist circumference of over 74 cm. The treatment measures are supposed to be taken promptly to improve the prognosis. PMID: 31173313 [PubMed - in process]
