WC [waist circumference] and calf circumference(CC) are simple and non-invasive measures that have been proposed as markers of adiposity and muscle mass, respectively, and have been used to assess frailty... The waist-calf circumference ratio(WCR) is [an] index that combines both measures, serving as an effective method for evaluating the imbalance between abdominal fat and leg muscle mass. WCR has been proposed as a reliable predictor of cognitive impairment..., carotid atherosclerosis..., and health-related quality of life..., and has been shown to be a superior predictor of health outcomes compared to BMI [body mass index], WC, or CC alone.  3, record 2, English, - waist%2Dcalf%20circumference%20ratio

Currently used general and central obesity anthropometric measures for assessing adiposity-related risk include : body mass index(BMI; weight in kilograms divided by square of height in meters), waist circumference(WC), hip circumference(HC), waist-to-hip ratio(WHR; ratio of WC to HC), waist-to-stature ratio(WSR; ratio of WC to height) and body adiposity index...(BAI; HC divided by height, and subtracting 18 from the result).  1, record 3, English, - waist%2Dto%2Dstature%20ratio

A simple way of classifying obesity would be to separate it into categories : early-and late-onset obesity. Early-onset obesity, predominantly inherited, gives a large body size with a moderate increase to cardiovascular health risks; late-onset obesity, however, is predominantly lifestyle dependent, giving visceral adiposity with a greater increase in cardiovascular health risks.  2, record 4, English, - late%2Donset%20obesity
