Anthropometric-derived measure vs. DXA-derived measure of (A) total adiposity and (B) central adiposity as predictors of hypertension. There are no significant differences in areas under curve (AUC) for the different body composition measures [(A.) p = 0.9785 and (B.) p = 0.7965] (n = 273). ROC, receiver operating characteristic (ROC); WC, waist circumference; WHtR, waist-to-height ratio; FM, fat mass.
