Associations between metabolic score for visceral fat and adult lung functions from NHANES 2007–2012
METS-VF showed a linear negative correlation with FEF25-75%, and a nonlinear negative correlation with FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC, and FEF25-75%, but was not associated with PEF, particularly among males under the age of 40. These findings offer valuable insights into managing lung function by controlling visceral fat.
