Percent body fat is a better predictor of cardiovascular risk factors than body mass index

Percent body fat is a better predictor of cardiovascular risk factors than body mass index

Show other versions (1)

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the predictive values of percent body fat (PBF) and body mass index (BMI) for cardiovascular risk factors, especially when PBF and BMI are conflicting. BMI was calculated by the standard formula and PBF was determined by bioelectrical impedance anal...
