Table 4.

Female Associations. Correlations between age-specific waist circumference index (aWCI) and both height and waist circumference, and correlations between traditional waist circumference indices, with height raised to the 1.0 power (WHtR), raised to the 0.5 power (WCI1) and raised to the 2.0 power (WCI2), and both height and waist circumference. Correlations (and p-values) listed for each age in female FLS subjects.
