Evaluation of Health Associations With Height‐Normalised Abdominal Body Composition Indices: A Single‐Centre Cross‐Sectional Study
Our findings endorse the clinical utility of height-normalised indices, particularly VAT/height<sup>β</sup>, TAT/height<sup>β</sup> and SAD/height<sup>β</sup>, in health outcomes assessment. These indices, grounded in robust empirical data, underscore the necessity of a nuanced approach in obesity-related health evaluations, advocating for a departure from conventional methods like BMI.
