Abstract

 Background: Identifying the best marker for appropriate screening of risk factors of chronic diseases seems necessary in any society. Objectives: This study aimed at performing a comparative evaluation of anthropometric indices to determine a better marker forprediction of high blood pressure in ADOLESCENTs. Methods: This cross-sectional study was done during 2013 on 1046 students, aged 11 to 19 year old in Kashan, who were chosen bycluster and class sampling method. Height, WAIST CIRCUMFERENCE (WC), WAIST-TO-HIP RATIO (WHR), WAIST-TO-HIGH RATIO (WHtR), systolicblood pressure (SBP), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of the subjects were measured. Blood pressure of all subjects, whohad theirblood pressuresmeasuredduring the first visit, wasmeasuredduring the secondandthird visit again, andthe threemeasuredbloodpressure averages was considered as subjects’ blood pressure. Results: This study showed a significant positive correlation between BP and BODY MASS INDEX (BMI), WC, WHR, and WHtR indices(P < 0. 001). Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis was performed. Area under the curve (AUC) was obtained for BMI(0. 62 to 0. 73), WC(0. 67 to 0. 76), WHR(0. 57 to 0. 67), andWHtR(0. 63 to 0. 77) in diastolic blood pressureandBMI(0. 66 to 0. 76), WC(0. 68to 0. 78), WHR (0. 57 to 0. 67) and WHtR (0. 67 to 0. 77) in systolic blood pressure. The WHtR in ADOLESCENTs had better distinguishingpower than other anthropometric indices. Conclusions: TheWHtR, as a relatively simple, inexpensive, andconvenient measurementmethodis the best anthropometric indexfor determination of blood pressure in these subjects.
