Refining Osteoarthritis Risk Prediction: Average Sagittal Abdominal Diameter Complements and Enhances Body Mass Index With Sex‐Specific Insights From National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey

Health Care Science, EarlyView.
Our findings support the integration of ASAD alongside BMI in OA risk assessment, particularly in female populations, to address limitations of BMI‐centric models. Implementing our proposed approach could enable refined, sex‐, and age‐targeted preventive interventions.
