Association Between Visceral Adiposity Index and Metabolic Syndrome and Its Components: Evidence From the PERSIAN Guilan Cohort Study. [PDF]

Endocrinol Diabetes Metab
In 10,520 adults from the PERSIAN Guilan Cohort, higher Visceral Adiposity Index was strongly associated with metabolic syndrome, particularly in women, and demonstrated good discriminatory ability (AUC 0.84). Sex‐specific VAI cut‐offs may help identify individuals at increased metabolic risk.
