Generalised and abdominal obesity and risk of diabetes, hypertension and hypertension–diabetes co-morbidity in England
Objectives To look at trends in generalised (body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg m –2 ) and abdominal (waist circumference (WC) >102 cm in men, >88 cm in women) obesity among adults between 1993 and 2003, and to evaluate their association with diabetes, hypertension and hypertension–diabetes co-morbidity (HDC) in England. Design Analyses of nationally representative cross-sectional population surveys, the Health Survey for England (HSE). Subjects Non-in…
