Waist‐to‐Height Ratio and the Risk of Cardiovascular Outcomes and Mortality in Type 2 Diabetes With and Without Abdominal Obesity

WHtR was independently associated with cardiovascular outcomes and mortality in individuals with T2DM, including those without abdominal obesity. This simple measurement may provide additional information beyond WC for evaluating cardiometabolic risk in this population.
