Association between novel adiposity parameters and hyperuricemia: a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Body mass index (BMI) is a commonly used parameters to measure obesity, but it cannot well reflect the distribution of body fat, which has limitations in clinical practice. Novel adiposity parameters have emerged as substitution to BMI to assess obesity. This study aimed to comprehensively investigate the association between hyperuricemia and novel adiposity parameters.

Methods

We included data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 1999-2006. Weighted logistic regression was employed to evaluate the relations between hyperuricemia and novel adiposity parameters, including body roundness index (BRI), weight-adjusted waist index (WWI), a body shape index (ABSI), and conicity index (CoI). To assess the most diagnostic factor for hyperuricemia
