Weight-Adjusted Waist Index as a Novel Predictor of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Evidence from NHANES 2013-2018 by Wang H, Chen W, Guo F, Xu Z, Luo X, Wu J, Zhu Y, Wang Z

“…WWI (AUC=0.707) outperformed BMI (AUC=0.525) and waist circumference (AUC=0.609) in COPD prediction. A nonlinear threshold effect emerged at WWI=12.54. Subgroup analyses confirmed robustness across demographics.Conclusion: WWI is a simple, cost-effective tool for early COPD detection, outperforming BMI and waist circumference, especially in resource-limited settings, enabling timely intervention and reducing disease burden.Keywords: weight-adjusted-waist index, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, obesity, NHANES, cross-sectional study…”
