Multivariate analysis was adjusted by age ≥ 65 years, male gender, presence of arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular event, SBP ≥140 mmHg, DBP ≥ 90 mmHg, PP ≥ 60 mmHg, TC ≥ 190 mg/dL, LDL ≥ 100 mg/dL, FPG ≥ 126 mg/dL, HbA1C ≥ 6.5%, eGFR < 60 ml/min, and use of antidiabetic and antihypertensive drugs.
ABSI, a body shape index; AVI, abdominal volume index; BAI, body adiposity index; BMI, body mass index; BRI, body roundness index; CI, conicity index; CUN-BAE, Clínica Universidad de Navarra-Body Adiposity Estimator; WHR, waist-to-hip ratio; WHtR, waist-to-height ratio; WWI, weigh adjusted waist index. Bold means statistically significant values.
