Derivation and validation of a new visceral adiposity index for predicting visceral obesity and cardiometabolic risk in a Korean population

The visceral adiposity index (VAI), an indirect marker of visceral adipose tissue, serves as a model associated with cardiometabolic risk, but has limitations regarding the Asian population. We sought to develop a new VAI (NVAI) for the Korean population and compare it to VAI for prediction of ather...
