Mid-upper-arm and calf circumferences are useful predictors of underweight in women of reproductive age in northern Vietnam
Publicado 2014“…Mid-upper-arm circumference (MUAC) and calf circumference (CC) are correlated with body mass index (BMI) in adults and may be useful for screening women with underweight (BMI < 18.5 kg/m2). However, there is no consensus on appropriate MUAC and CC cutoff points in diverse populations, especially in women of reproductive age.To assess the accuracy of different MUAC and CC cutoff points to screen for underweight and to identify the most appropriate cutoff points in a sample of women of reproductive age from rural northern Vietnam.Anthropometric measurements (weight, height, MUAC, CC, and triceps and subscapular skinfold thicknesses) were obtained for 4,981 women of reproductive age who participated in a micronutrient intervention trial (PRECONCEPT) in Thái Nguyên Province, Viet- nam. …”
