The variations in health cost based on the traditional obesity parameters among patients with coronary artery diseases undergoing cardiac catheterization.

Background: In the literature, obesity has been correlated with coronary artery diseases (CADs) and high health costs. This study aimed to investigate the relationships between obesity parameters and the health costs among patients with CADs undergoing cardiac catheterization.

Method: A secondary data analysis was done for an original study.

The association of traditional obesity parameters with the length of stay among patients with coronary artery disease: A cross-sectional study.

There is a strong association between obesity and coronary artery disease (CAD). Obesity is measured using traditional obesity parameters, such as body mass index, body adiposity index, waist circumference (WC), and hip circumference. The aim of this study is to explore the association between traditional obesity parameters and the length of stay (LOS) among hospitalized CAD patients.

The Role of Traditional Obesity Parameters in Predicting Frailty among Coronary Artery Disease Patients Undergoing Cardiac Catheterization.

Background: Obesity has been reported to be associated with frailty and coronary artery disease (CAD).

Objective: The present study aimed to investigate the role of the seven traditional obesity parameters body mass index (BMI), waist-height ratio (WHtR), waist-hip ratio (WHR), body adiposity index (BAI), body shape index (BSI), waist circumference (WC), and hip circumference (HC) in the prediction of frailty among CAD patients undergoing cardiac catheterization.

Design: A secondary data analysis was conducted.

The role of traditional obesity parameters in predicting the number of stenosed coronary arteries (≥ 60%) among patients undergoing cardiac catheterization.

The correlation between obesity and coronary artery disease (CAD) has been well-documented in the literature. Body mass index, waist-height ratio, waist-hip ratio, body adiposity index, body shape index, waist circumference, and hip circumference are traditional obesity parameters used to measure obesity. This study aimed to investigate the role of these traditional obesity parameters in the prediction of the number of stenosed coronary arteries (≥ 60%) among patients undergoing cardiac catheterization.
