Association of anthropometry indices and metabolic syndrome in Iranians: a cross-sectional study of the Fasa adult cohort study
Anthropometric indices, including VAI, AIP, BAI, BRI and AVI, exhibit significant associations with key components of MetS in Iranian adults, particularly blood pressure, glycaemic markers and central adiposity. Among these, BAI showed the strongest correlation with MetS parameters, while ABSI displayed the weakest.
