Application of conicity index adjusted total body fat in young adults-a novel method to assess metabolic diseases risk

Abstract The aim of the study was to evaluate the usefulness of conicity index (CI) adjusted total body fat (TBF), which was defined as TBF/CI, in various metabolic diseases in young adults. A cross-sectional study was carried out in Chinese PLA General Hospital and a total of 1365 young adults (age...
