Association between cardiometabolic index and hypertension among US adults from NHANES 1999–2020
Hypertension, a major global health issue and leading cause of death, is often under-assessed by traditional metrics like Body Mass Index which fail to capture comprehensive cardiovascular risks associated with obesity.

Ethnic differences in adiposity and diabetes risk – insights from genetic studies [PDF]
Type 2 diabetes is more common in non-Europeans and starts at a younger age and at lower BMI cut-offs. This review discusses the insights from genetic studies about pathophysiological mechanisms which determine risk of disease with a focus on the role of
