A Body Shape Index

Introduction: The body roundness index (BRI) and a body shape index (ABSI) are novel anthropometric indices established to determine both the amount visceral adipose tissue and body fat. Objective: to investigate whether BRI and ABSI are better predictors of hypertension than body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC) or waist-to-height ratio (WHtR). Methods: A systematic search was conducted in the Scopus, PubMed and Web of Science databases up until 31 December 2020. Results: The estimated pooled area under curve [AUC (95% CI)] for BRI [0.67 (0.65–0.70)] for the prediction of hypertension were superior to that of ABSI (0.58 (0.56–0.60)), similar to that of BMI [0.67 (0.64–0.69)], and lower than those WC [0.68 (0.66–0.70)] and WHtR [0.68 (0.66–0.71)]. Nevertheless, the difference of BRI compared to WC and WHtR in the context of predicting hypertension was non-significant. ABSI was significantly lower (p < 0.05) than BRI, BMI, WC and WHtR. Similar findings were observed with the summary receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-SROC). There were no significant differences between subgroups according to type of population or diagnostic criteria of hypertension. The diagnostic odds ratio (dORs) proved that increased BRI and ABSI were related with an elevated hypertension risk. Conclusions: BRI and ABSI have discriminatory power for hypertension in adult women and men from different populations. Although, WHtR and WC provided the best performance when assessing hypertension, no significant differences were found for BRI. Finally, BRI was significantly better predictor of hypertension than ABSI.

Abstract Background This study assessed the performance of visceral adiposity index and body shape index in predicting diabetes mellitus (DM) risk and compared their predictive ability to that of body mass index and waist circumference. Methods Among 8249 consecutive subjects who attended the Nationwide Health Check Up System for Senior Citizens (≥ 65 years) between 2008 and 2018, we examined the associations of several adiposity indices with DM risk and explored gender differences. Results Among all adiposity indicators, Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI) demonstrated the highest discriminatory ability for diabetes mellitus with area under receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC) of 0.65, 0.68, and 0.66 for men, women, and all participants, respectively, and optimal cut-offs set as 126.09 in men and 117.77 in women. Compared with body shape index (ABSI), both CVAI and VAI were strongly associated with baseline DM (adjusted OR: 4.85, 95% CI: 4.05–5.82 and 4.22, 95% CI: 3.53–5.05 for 4th vs 1st quartile groups by CVAI and VAI, P < 0.001), which was more pronounced in older adult women (Pinteraction < 0.05). Over a median of 5.25 years (IQR: 3.07–6.44 years) follow-up, Cox regression models showed higher predictive ability of CVAI and VAI compared to ABSI. Further, both CVAI and VAI independently predicted new-onset DM (adjusted HR: 1.29, 95% CI: 1.22–1.37 and 1.16, 95% CI: 1.11–1.21 by CVAI and VAI) and composite endpoint of new DM and death among those without baseline DM. Conclusions Our population-based data demonstrated that Chinese visceral adiposity index may serve as a superior clinical indicator of diabetes when compared with conventional anthropometric indices among older adult Chinese, especially in women.

Obesity is one of the nutrition problems that the prevalence increases continuously. People from low socioeconomic status significantly increase. Likewise, obesity in a woman is more prone than man. This study aims to explore the causes of obesity in adult women who come from middle and lower families. The research was conducted using qualitative principles, which research method in-depth interviews and observations. The primary informants involved ten adult women who have obese nutritional status and the key informants were community leader and family members. Results showed the influence perception of body shape on the intention and willingness to lose weight. Wrong eating patterns are excess food intake and consumption of food and beverages, which lead to obesity along with less exercise and passive activity. Its behavior is affected by individual perceptions, social support, and the environment..

Abstrak Pembuatan pola busana merupakan salah satu proses terpenting dalam pembuatan suatu busana, karena pola merupakan jiplakan bentuk badan yang digambar sesuai dengan ukuran badan seseorang yang diukur secara cermat dan tepat. Pola  busana wanita dengan bentuk tubuh gemuk memerlukan sistem pola khusus dibandingkan dengan wanita dengan bentuk tubuh ideal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat kelemahan, cara memperbaiki, kesesuaian pola dasar sistem Indonesia untuk wanita Indonesia dengan bentuk tubuh gemuk. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian terapan, objek penelitiannya yaitu pola dasar sistem indonesia yang di fitting sebanyak tiga kali pada wanita dewasa dengan bentuk tubuh gemuk, dengan tiga panelis yaitu dosen yang ahli dibidang pembuatan pola. Teknik pengumpulan data penelitian ini diperoleh dengan menyebarkan instrumen penelitian yang disusun berdasarkan kuesioner atau angket berupa skala likers, sedangkan teknik analisis data yang digunakan yaitu, modus, median dan persentase untuk menetukan kecenderungan terbanyak dalam penilaian kesesuaian pola dasar sistem Indonesia pada wanita dengan bentuk tubuh gemuk. Hasil penelitian, menunjukkan bahwa pola dasar sistem Indonesia terdapat kelemahan dengan persentase 71% dan diklasifikasikan dengan kategori sesuai. Perbaikan dengan persentase 95% dengan klasifikasi sangat sesuai. Secara keseluruhan pola dasar sistem Indonesia setelah dilakukan penyesuaian diperoleh persentase 95% dan diklasifikasikan dengan kategori sangat sesuai untuk wanita dengan bentuk tubuh gemuk.Kata Kunci : pola Indonesia,wanita, gemukAbstact Making fashion patterns is one of the most important processes in making clothes, because the pattern is a copy of the body shape drawn in accordance with the size of a person's body that is measured carefully and precisely. Women's clothing patterns with fat body shapes require a special pattern system compared to women with ideal body shape. This study aims to see weaknesses, ways to improve, the suitability of the basic pattern of the Indonesian system for Indonesian women with a fat body shape. This research is an applied research, the object of the research is the basic pattern of the Indonesian system that has been fitted three times in adult women with obese bodies, with three panelists namely lecturers who are experts in pattern making. The data collection technique of this research was obtained by distributing research instruments compiled based on questionnaires in the form of likers scale, while the data analysis techniques used were, mode, median and percentage to determine the most trends in assessing the suitability of the Indonesian system's basic pattern in women with obese bodies . The results of the study indicate that the basic pattern of the Indonesian system has weaknesses with a percentage of 71% and classified in the appropriate category. Repairing with a percentage of 95% with classification is very appropriate. Overall the basic pattern of the Indonesian system after adjustments was obtained was a percentage of 95% and classified with a category very suitable for women with fat body shape.Keywords : pattern of indonesia, women, obese bodies
