Background: As metabolic diseases continue to rise globally, there is a growing need improve risk assessment strategies beyond traditional measures such as BMI and waist circumference, which may fail identify individuals at risk. This study develops validates novel classification system that incorporates body fat percentage (%BF), circumference (WC), grip strength (GS) in Mexican adults. It aims stratification evaluate the association with syndrome. Methods: cross-sectional involved 300 young adults (18–22 years) from university Mexico City, utilizing composition (%BF) anthropometric (WC, GS) categorize them into four groups: protective, low risk, increased high A retrospective cohort of 166 (18–65 complete clinical records was used for validation. Results: The inclusion GS significantly shifted distribution adult cohort, reducing “no risk” category (15.5% males, 11.6% females) expanding higher-risk categories (70.2% 69% females). Metabolic parameters fasting glucose, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, blood pressure worsened progressively across (p < 0.001). high-risk group exhibited markedly odds ratio syndrome 28.23 (10.83–73.6, p 0.001), no cases protective low-risk groups. Conclusions: Integrating %BF WC substantially enhances stratification, identifies at-risk not previously detected, confirms group. validated provides robust tool early detection targeted interventions, improving public health outcomes health.

Managing obesity in children remains challenging. In addition to body mass index (BMI), incorporating composition into evaluations of postobesity interventions would help assess changes adiposity. This study aimed identify the relationship between dietary intake, physical activity, and BMI z scores adiposity among with obesity. Children aged 7-15 years received monthly activity instructions for 6 months. Three-day records questionnaires were collected at 0, 3, Body was measured using bioelectrical impedance analysis. These relationships analyzed uni- multivariate linear regression analyses. A total 155 completed 6-month study. higher protein intake per ideal weight height significantly correlated a decrease score trunk fat (trunk [FM] kg/height m2).

Excessive body adiposity is a significant public health challenge on global scale. This study aimed to investigate the association between various sociodemographic factors and healthy lifestyle habits presence or absence of elevated levels. Two studies were conducted, retrospective longitudinal cross-sectional descriptive study. The analysis included 44,939 healthcare workers, categorised into four professional groups, explore relationship age, sex, smoking, physical activity, adherence Mediterranean diet adiposity, assessed as fat (BF) visceral (VF) Descriptive statistics encompassed categorical quantitative variables, analysed using frequencies, Student's t-tests, chi-square tests, multinomial logistic regression models. Associations, concordances, correlations further examined Cohen's Pearson's kappa coefficients. Age, activity most strongly associated with BF VF Odds ratios (ORs) indicated following associations: individuals aged 60 years older exhibited ORs 6.71 (95% CI: 5.68-7.74) for 12.18 10.01-14.26) VF; male sex was 2.21 2.06-2.36) 12.51 11.29-13.74) VF.

Elevated among personnel are significantly by factors, pronounced risk observed in orderlies. Further research focusing causal relationships behaviours this population will provide valuable insights support design targeted preventive strategies mitigate its prevalence.
