Association of Body Fatness With Hypertension, Dyslipidemia, and Myocardial Infarction in a Multinational Pooled Cohort
This analysis revealed a positive association of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry-measured body fat parameters with CVDs for individuals in a specific BMI group. The findings highlight a need for policy changes to include directly measured body fatness in assessing CVD risk.
