Objective: To compare the sensitivities of BMI, waist circumference and waist hip ratio (WHR) in identifying subjects who should be screened for diabetes and/or for obesity-associated dyslipidaemia.Design: Cross-sectional study.Setting: Central-western France.Participants: More than 3000 men and women, aged 40 - 64 years, from the French study: data from an epidemiological study on the insulin resistance syndrome ( D. E. S. I. R.).Main outcome measures: Sensitivity and specificity for screened diabetes ( fasting plasma glucose >= 7.0 mmol/l) and screened dyslipidaemia (triglycerides >= 2.3 mmol/l and/or HDL-cholesterol = 27/26 kg/ m(2) (men/women) or waist >= 96/83 cm or WHR >= 0.96/0.83. These values were chosen as thresholds. In men, BMI had a nonsignificantly higher sensitivity than waist or WHR for both diabetes and dyslipidaemia (77 vs 74 and 66% P
