Comparison on area under curves for diagnosing with any one of the CVD risk factors between different waist and hip indices within each BMI category. Comparison on the area under different indices curves was based on Delong test; $ mean that AUROC of those indices were similar to each other (P > 0.05) for identifying with any one of CVD risk factors within the specific BMI category, and meanwhile their AUROC were the highest in the six anthropometric indices (P < 0.05). AUROC, area under receiver operator curves; ROC, receiver operator curves; BMI, body mass index; WC, waist circumstance; WHtR, waist height ratio; ABSI, a body shape index; BRI, body round index; HC, hip circumstance; WHR, waist hip ratio.
