Body height (BH) [cm], body mass (BM) [kg] and waist circumference (WC) [cm] were measured for the needs of the study. BH was taken without shoes, in a standing position to the nearest 1 mm, with the head in the Frankfurt plane, with a stadiometer (Seca 231 stadiometer, Hamburg, Germany). BM was measured in the standing position with a standardized medical scale (Beurer PS 240, Budapest, Hungary), with an accuracy of 50 g. Waist circumference (WC) was taken to the nearest 1 mm with an anthropometric tape between the lower edge of the costal arch and the upper edge of the iliac crest with the subject in a standing position and registered at the end of a gentle expiration. Waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) was obtained by dividing waist circumference (in cm) by height (in cm).

Body mass (BM) [kg], body height (BH) [cm] and waist circumference (WC) [cm] were used in the study. BM, BH and WC were measured in a standing position, in underwear, with the head in the Frankfurt plane. BM was measured with a medical scale (Beurer PS 240, Budapest, Hungary) with an accuracy of 50 g. BH was measured with an accuracy of 1 mm with a stadiometer (Seca 231 stadiometer, Hamburg, Germany). Waist circumference (WC) was measured last during free exhalation using an anthropometric tape, between the upper edge of the iliac crest and the lower edge of the costal arch. Based on the obtained BM and BH, the body mass index (BMI) [kg/m2] was calculated.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
