Summary: This study examined the association between Weight-adjusted Waist Index (WWI) and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in the US. A total of 26,882 individuals from the NHANES were included. Higher WWI levels were found to be independently associated with increased risk of cardiovascular mortality and all-cause death.

Summary: This study explores the association between weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) and the risk of all-cause mortality in an urban community-dwelling population in China. The findings suggest that WWI is associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality, and this association is more pronounced in the highest WWI category.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the association between the weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) and the incidence of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (T2D) among participants in rural areas of China. A total of 9205 non-diabetic individuals were included at baseline, and followed up for a median of 4.6 years. The study found that increasing WWI was significantly associated with a higher incidence of newly diagnosed T2D among rural Chinese adults.

Summary: The study aimed to investigate the effects of waist circumference (WC), arm circumference (AC), calf circumference (CC), and thigh circumference (TC) on all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. The results showed that central obesity, as measured by WC, was positively associated with all-cause mortality, while measures of extremity obesity (AC, CC, and TC) were negatively associated with all-cause mortality. These findings suggest that central obesity is a risk factor for mortality, while extremity obesity may have a protective effect.

Summary: This study examined the association between obesity indices and hospitalization rates in Iranian adults. Obese individuals and those with high waist circumference had higher rates of hospitalization, particularly in women, suggesting that obesity prevention programs may reduce hospitalizations.

Summary: This study investigated the associations between anthropometric parameters and cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality among diabetic patients. The results showed that arm circumference (AC) and arm-to-waist ratio (AC/WC) were inversely associated with CVD and all-cause mortality among individuals with diabetes. These anthropometric parameters are important for diabetic patients.

Summary: This study found that low BMI and WC were associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality in older Chinese individuals, regardless of hypertension status. The lowest risk of death associated with BMI was observed in the overweight group among normotensive participants, and in the obesity group among hypertensive participants.

Summary: This study found a significant association between sleep duration <5 hours or >9 hours and increased risks of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. It was estimated that 187,000 cardiovascular disease events were attributable to short sleep duration and 947,000 cardiovascular disease events were attributable to long sleep duration.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the association between hearing loss and all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality, as well as the potential modification by chronic conditions in middle-aged and older Chinese adults. The results showed that hearing loss was independently associated with an increased risk of all-cause and CVD mortality, and the risk increased with the severity of hearing loss. Additionally, individuals with both hearing loss and diabetes or hypertension had a higher risk of mortality.

Summary: The study found a positive association between baseline plasma copper levels and the risk of first stroke, particularly ischemic stroke, in Chinese community-dwelling population. Despite most participants having copper levels within the normal range, there was an increased risk of stroke associated with higher copper levels, warranting further investigation.

Summary: This study evaluated the relationship between four surrogate markers of insulin resistance and chronic kidney disease in Chinese hypertensive patients. All four markers were found to be independently and positively correlated with CKD, with the lipid accumulation product index (LAP) performing better than the others in predicting CKD. Higher levels of triglyceride-glucose index (TyG), visceral adiposity index (VAI), and triglycerides to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL) were found to be closely related to the increased prevalence of CKD only among participants aged over 65 years.
