Cardiometabolic risk in young adults from northern Mexico: Revisiting body mass index and waist-circumference as predictors
BACKGROUND: A body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m(2) and a waist circumference (WC) ≥80 cm in women (WCF) or ≥90 cm in men (WCM) are reference cardiometabolic risk markers (CMM) for Mexicans adults.
