SMRT: A smart mass ratio technique that outperforms body mass index (BMI) for predicting waist-to-height ratio. [PDF]
Ger Med SciBackground: Waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) is a superior indicator of central obesity and cardiometabolic risk compared with body mass index (BMI). However, its use in clinical practice is limited because waist circumference is often not measured or may be
