Abstract

Dear Editor-in-Chief: Abdominal obesity as determined by increased waist circumference (WC) is an established risk factor for metabolic syndrome (MS), diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in adults. However, it is often ignored as a potential cardiovascular risk factor in metabolically obese or non-obese children and adolescents. WC is reported to be associated with visceral fat, whereas body mass index (BMI) is more associated with subcutaneous fat in children. WC has also been associated with high inflammatory biomarker levels, such as C-reactive protein (CRP) and is reported to be an independent predictor of insulin resistance, an underlying determinant of MS. Recently the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) published definition of the MS in children and adolescents, including WC as a “sine qua non‟ for MS.
