Age-adjusted cut-off values of lipid accumulation product (LAP) for predicting hypertension

Abstract Among the many factors considered relevant to hypertension, obesity and metabolic disturbances play an important role in the development of this pathology. Therefore, lipid accumulation product (LAP), an index of visceral adiposity, is a simple and effective indicator of hypertension risk....
