Performance of different adiposity measures for predicting left ventricular remodeling in Chinese hypertensive youth
Abstract There is no consistent conclusion on which adiposity measure is best to predict cardiovascular risk factors in youth. The present study aims to assess the performance of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) in predicting abnormal left ventricular...
