| Abstract | Results: Pearson’s correlation indicated a significant positive association between changes in NC and changes in body mass index and WC in both men and women. ROC analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) for NC and BMI >25 kg/m2 was 0.80 for men, 0.69 for women, respectively, while that for BMI>30 kg/m2 was 0.88 for men, 0.75 for women, respectively. NC ≥ 38 cm for men and ≥ 36 cm for women were the best cut-off points for determining subjects with overweight. |
