Obesity increases the risks of developing cardiovascular and metabolic diseases and
degrades quality of life, ultimately increasing the risk of death. However, not all forms of …

Multi-compartment body-composition models that divide the body into its multiple
constituents are the criterion method for measuring body fat percentage, fat mass, and fat …

Background: The higher risk of death resulting from excess adiposity may be attenuated by
physical activity (PA). However, the theoretical number of deaths reduced by eliminating …

In recent years, we've developed a much better grasp of the biological and other factors
associated with the development of obesity. Reflecting our evolving understanding of …

Abstract Background Visceral Fat (VF) is the underlying culprit for cardiovascular diseases,
type 2 diabetes, breast cancer, etc. VF can be estimated at present only by using expensive …

Objectives: Adiposity, defined by higher cardiometabolic index (CMI), lipid accumulation
product (LAP), and body adiposity index (BAI), has conferred increased metabolic risk …

Objective The worldwide prevalence of obesity mandates a widely accessible tool to
categorize adiposity that can best predict associated health risks. The body adiposity index …

Background & aims Visual body composition (VBC) estimates produced from smartphone-
based artificial intelligence represent a user-friendly and convenient way to automate body …

Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is a metabolically active organ, associated with higher risk of
malignancies. We evaluated whether VAT is associated with the risk of hepatocellular …

Summary Background & aims The Body Adiposity Index (BAI) is an anthropometric measure
developed to estimate body composition in field settings. Although this novel measure has …
