Values are mean ± SD. BMI-SDS, body mass index standard deviation score; WC-SDS, waist circumference standard deviation score; WHtR, waist-to-height ratio; WHpR, waist-to-hip ratio; SSFT, sum of skinfold thicknesses; TCh, total cholesterol; TG, triglycerides; LDL, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; BP, blood pressure.

^aEvaluated according to IOTF standards [34].

^bEvaluated according to the Polish reference for WC [35].

^cAdjusted by height.
