Receiver operating characteristic curves of identifying (A) IDF-adoMetS and (B) JIS-AdMetS for selected adiposity indicators in girls and boys, the ado-NAHSIT study. The AUCs of identifying IDF-adoMetS for AVI, WC, LAP, and PC1 were significantly higher than that for WHR in girls and boys (all p values ≤ 0.020), and the AUCs of determining JIS-AdMetS for AVI, WC, LAP, and PC1 were also significantly greater than that for WHR in girls and boys (all p values ≤ 0.028). AUC, area under receiver operating characteristic curve; WHR, waist-to-hip ratio; AVI, abdominal volume index; WC, waist circumference; LAP, lipid accumulation product; PC1, principal component 1 (bodyfat-enhanced factor).
