BACKGROUND: Nowadays, obesity has become a public health issue. Weight-adjusted waist circumference index (WWI) is gaining attention as a new obesity indicator. Evidence regarding the association between WWI and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality among the general adult population in the United States remains limited.
METHODS: This retrospective cohort study analyzed 3,081 U.S. adults from the 1999-2018 NHANES database. Weighted Cox regression, trend chi-square test, Kaplan-Meier analysis, and comprehensive predictive performance assessments were used to explore the association between WWI and all-cause/cardiovascular mortality, and validate WWI's predictive value versus BMI/waist circumference/body weight. Subgroup and interaction analyses were also performed.
RESULTS: WWI was positively associated with all-cause (Model 3 HR = 1.944, p < 0.001) and cardiovascular mortality (Model 3 HR = 1.854, p = 0.013), with a significant linear upward trend in mortality risks with increasing WWI quartiles (all p < 0.001). WWI had higher AUC than traditional indices, with significant DeLong test differences, stable long-term predictive performance, and superior net benefit in clinically relevant DCA threshold ranges.
CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates a significant association between WWI and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality among the general adult population in the United States, Our findings suggest that older people, women, low-income and low-educated people, smokers have higher WWI, and people with high WWI also have higher prevalence of hypertension and diabetes, Integrating WWI into clinical risk assessment may help identify high-risk populations and guide targeted interventions to reduce mortality risk.
