A study on the construction of body fat percentage percentile curve for adults aged 20–79 in China
The age-specific BFP percentile curves formulated in this study allow for the personalized and precise assessment of obesity in middle-aged and older adults. They also enable early prediction and risk warning of obesity in the older age groups. The findings support national goals such as "early intervention" and "precise assessment" and are recommended for use in practical settings to evaluate BFP and obesity in middle-aged and older adult populations in China.
