In women, the clinical parameters with the highest correlation to age include the waist-to-hip ratio (r = 0.859, P < 0.001), waist circumference (r = 0.580, P < 0.001), and hip circumference (r = 0.520, P < 0.001). To estimate the optimal body shape biological age based on clinical parameters associated with body composition, we performed a multiple regression analysis. In a model estimating the body shape biological age, the coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.71 in men and 0.76 in women.Conclusion: Our model for estimating body shape biological age might be a novel approach to variation in body shape that is due to aging. We assume that our estimation model would be used as an adjunctive measure in easily predicting differences in body shape with the use of clinical parameters that are commonly used to assess the status of obesity in a clinical setting.Keywords: chronological age, body shape, biological ageBae CYKang YGSuh YSHan JHKim SSShim KWDove Medical Pressarticlechronological agebody shapebiological ageGeriatricsRC952-954.6ENClinical Interventions in Aging, Vol Volume 8, Pp 11-18 (2012)
