ANTHROPOMETRIC CALIBRATION STUDY

本子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能已经从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是中心的，不一定是研究者的机构。本研究的目的是检验生活在中国的亚洲人和生活在美国的白种人和非洲裔美国人：(1)BMI与糖尿病、血脂异常和高血压的关系；(2)腰围、腰臀比与糖尿病、血脂异常、高血压的关系；(3) BMI、腰围和腰臀比与全因死亡率的关系（使用中华人民共和国研究和社区动脉粥样硬化风险研究的范围数据）。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The purpose of this research is to examine Asians living in China and Caucasians and African Americans living in the United States to (1) relationships of BMI with diabetes, dyslipidemia and hypertension; (2) relationships of waist circumference and waist to hip ratio with diabetes, dyslipidemia and hypertension; and (3) relationships of BMI, waist circumference and waist to hip ratio with all cause mortality using extent data from the People's Republic of China Study and the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study.
