Using different anthropometric indices to assess prediction ability of type 2 diabetes in elderly population: a 5 year prospective study.




Emerging studies have investigated the association between different anthropometric indices with diabetes risk but the results were inconsistent. The aims of the study were to examine the associations of different anthropometric indices with incident diabetes risk and whether novel anthropometric indices improve diabetes prediction beyond traditional indices among elderly Chinese.
