Associations between waist circumference, metabolic risk and executive function in adolescents: A cross-sectional mediation analysis
The main objective of this study was to investigate the associations between waist
circumference, metabolic risk factors, and executive function in adolescents. Methods: The
study was cross-sectional and included 558 adolescents (mean age 14.2 years).
Anthropometrics and systolic blood pressure (sysBP) were measured and fasting blood
samples were analyzed for metabolic risk factors. A metabolic risk factor cluster score (MetS-
cluster score) was computed from the sum of standardized sysBP, triglycerides (TG), inverse …
