  2. Cut points ofOBESITY Dr. Khalili PhD candidate in epidemiology Shahidbeheshti university (MC)

  3. Some Points About Dichotomizing continuous predictors Trade off Simplicity & Practicality Measurement error & low Power • We loss some information • Throwing about 1/3 of data away • Avoid of assumptions • Calculate better effect measurements

  4. Some Points About Dichotomizing continuous predictors Dichotomizing: to create two relatively homogenous group According to variable distribution Dichotomizing 85% or …of percentile Using a gold standard (usually another variable or event )

  5. Cut points based on a Gold Standard • Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (ROC) AUC (area Under the Curve)

  6. Cut points based on a Gold Standard (ROC) Sensitivity 1 1 - specificity Min Sensitivity + Specificity -1 Max

  7. Cut points based on a Gold Standard • Calculating an effect measure (OR, RR, HR, …) • To compare with a reference • Agreement Chart

National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys Survey Dates Ages NHES I 1960-62 18-79 years NHES II 1963-65 6-11 years NHES III 1966-70 12-17 years NHANES I 1971-75 1-74 years NHANES II 1976-80 6 mo.-74 years HHANES 1982-84 6 mo.-74 years NHANES III 1988-94 2 mo. + NHANES 1999- All ages OP96025

  9. NIH consensus conference (1985): • According to NHANES II and85th percentile values (men and women ages 20-29 y) • BMI of 27.8 for men • BMI of 27.3 for women

  10. Probloms of this statistical approach: • Distribution Changes • Theoretical Curves • Need of more information on BMI complication • Low sensitivity because of underestimation of Obesity Age-adjusted trends in obesity (BMI >=30): United States

  11. 1995 WHO expert committee report BMI cut-points of 25 (overweight) and 30 (obesity) recommended by expert committees • For adults, the Expert Committee proposed classification of BMI with the cut-off points 25, 30 and 40…This classification is based principally on the association between BMI and mortality.

  12. Relation between mortality and BMI Data from Lew EA: Mortality and weight: insured lives and the American Cancer Society studies. Ann Intern Med103:1024-1029, 1985.

  13. The method used to establish BMI cut-off points has been largely arbitrary. In essence, it has been based on visual inspection of the relationship between BMI and mortality: the cut-off of 30 is based on the point of flexion of the curve.

  14. 1998 NHLBI (National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute ) • Clinical Guidelines In this report, overweight is defined as a BMI of 25.0 to 29.9 kg/m2 and obesity as a BMI of 30 kg/m2. The rationale behind these definitions is based on epidemiological data that show increases in mortality with BMIs above 25 kg/m2. The increase in mortality, however, tends to be modest until a BMI of 30 kg/m2 is reached.

  15. Recent study in western Europe and North America “Body-mass index and cause-specific mortality in 900 000 adults: collaborative analyses of 57 prospective studies” BMI is in itself a strong predictor of overall mortality both above and below the apparent optimum of about 22·5–25 kg/m2. The progressive excess mortality above this range is due mainly to vascular disease and is probably largely causal. At 30–35 kg/m2, median survival is reduced by 2–4 years; at 40–45 kg/m2, it is reduced by 8–10 years (which is comparable with the effects of smoking). The definite excess mortality below22· 5 kg/m2 is due mainly to smoking-related diseases, and is not fully explained. Lancet. 2009 March 28; 373(9669): 1083–1096.

  16. Ischaemic heart disease and stroke mortality versus BMI in the range 15–50 kg/m2 Lancet. 2009 March 28; 373(9669): 1083–1096.

  17. Because of some Reasons:WC instead of BMI

  18. WC cut points • According to: • - Lean MEJ, Han TS, Morrison CE. Waist circumference as a measure for indicating need for weight management. BMJ 1995;311:158–61. Randomly recruited 904 men and 1014 women, aged 25 to 74 years, from the general population of north Glasgow between January and August 1992, excluding only those who were chair bound.

  19. BMI as Gold Standard Using in ATPIII & EGIR

  20. These cutpoints have been shown, in a random sample of 2183 men and 2698 women from the Netherlands, to be associated crosssectionally with an adverse cardiovascular risk profile. T S Han, EMvan Leer, J C Seidell, ME J Lean Waist circumference action levels in the identification of cardiovascular risk factors: prevalence study in a random sample. BMJ, 1995;311:1401-5

  21. BMI 25 at action level I or 30 at action level 2 as Gold standard T S Han, EMvan Leer, J C Seidell, ME J Lean 1995;311:1401-5

  22. T S Han, EMvan Leer, J C Seidell, ME J Lean 1995;311:1401-5

  23. ShanKuan Zhu, Am J ClinNutr2002;76:743–9. Current WC cutoffs proposed by the National Institutes of Health and the World Health Organization were not chosen on the basis of their empirical relation to risk factors. Rather, these cutoffs were derived by identifying WC values corresponding to BMI cutoffs for overweight (BMI = 25) or obesity (BMI = 30) (2, 21_). If WC has an independent or a stronger association with risk factors than BMI has, then it is inappropriate to base WC thresholds on their association with BMI thresholds. Rather, thresholds for each should be based on their relation to risk factors. Hence, existing cutoff recommendations may not take full advantage of the relation between WC and obesity-related cardiovascular disease risk factors.
