Visceral obesity is a major risk factor for diabetes; therefore, it is crucial to identify visceral adiposity.\u00a0Visceral obesity, is associated with an increased risk of metabolic diseases<\/a>, such as dysglycemia (pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes), dyslipidemia, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease.<\/p>\n

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) are the gold standard for determining visceral obesity. However, they are unsuitable for clinical practices because they are time-consuming, costly and harmful.<\/p>\n

Visceral Adiposity Index can replace imaging procedures with the advantages of reduced economic burden and can be used as screening tool for surveillance of cardiometabolic risk\u00a0 in Indian population.<\/a><\/p>\n

The simplicity of WC and BMI measurement and TG and HDL assessment, make Visceral Adiposity Index an easily applicable index to estimate visceral adiposity.<\/p>\n

Visceral Adiposity Index is calculated as following (both TG and HDL-C\u00a0 expressed in mmol\/L):<\/p>\n

Males: VAI=(WC\/39.68+(1.88\u00d7BMI))\u00d7(TG\/1.03)\u00d7(1.31\/HDL\u2212C)
\nFemales:VAI=(WC\/36.58+(1.89\u00d7BMI))\u00d7(TG\/0.81)\u00d7(1.52\/HDL\u2212C)<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

Chinese VAI, a better index\u00a0 is calculated by the following formula:<\/a><\/p>\n
