U-shaped association of body roundness index with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in individuals with chronic kidney disease
In this nationally representative study, we found a nonlinear U-shaped association between BRI and deaths from all causes and CVD among participants with CKD, with inflection points at 6.29 and 6.04. Further research is required to establish the optimal range of BRI as a measure of visceral fat deposition.
