  2. CHG-CVAI is associated with cardiovascular disease in humans (17% higher CVD risk per 1-SD rise).

    “Per 1‐SD rise in baseline CHG‐WC and CHG‐CVAI corresponded to 19% and 17% higher CVD risk, respectively.”

Blood and body-size scores linked to cardiovascular risk

In 5,304 Chinese adults, one score was linked to new cardiovascular disease with a hazard ratio of 1.213 per standard-deviation increase.In 5,304 Chinese adults, one score was linked to new cardiovascular disease with a hazard ratio of 1.213 per standard-deviation increase.
