Waist-to-height ratio is independently related to whole and central body fat, regardless of the waist circumference measurement protocol, in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients

Background Waist‐to‐height ratio ( WH tR) has been reported as a preferable risk related body fat ( BF ) marker, although no standardised waist circumference measurement protocol ( WC mp) has been proposed. The present study aimed to investigate whether the use of a different WC mp affects the strength of relationship between WH tR and both whole and central BF in non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease ( NAFLD ) patients. Methods BF was assessed with...
