- W2891695964 abstract "Abstract Background Different anthropometric parameters have been proposed for assessing central obesity in children, but the ability of these anthropometric parameters to correctly measure central obesity in Pakistani children is questionable and needs to be assessed. The aims of this investigation were to examine the diagnostic performance of anthropometric parameters as indicators of central obesity in Pakistani children as measured by waist circumference (WC) and to determine the sex-specific best cut-off values for these parameters that would identify obese children. Methods Anthropometric measurements – height, weight, WC, waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), conicity index (CI) and neck circumference (NC) – from a cross-sectional sample of 5964 Pakistani children aged 5–12 years were analyzed. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analysis was used to examine the diagnostic performance and to determine the optimal cut-off point of each anthropometric parameter for identifying centrally obese children. Results It was found that WC had a significantly positive correlation with all studied anthropometric parameters. The ROC curve analysis indicated that all the parameters analyzed had good performance but WHtR had the highest value of the area under the curve (AUC). Optimal cut-off points associated with central obesity for boys and girls were, respectively, 0.47 and 0.48 for WHtR, 1.20 and 1.23 for CI, 0.96 and 0.96 for WHR and 26.36 and 26.54 cm for NC. Conclusions The sex-specific cut-off points for WHtR, CI, WHR and NC can be used to detect central obesity in Pakistani children." @default.
