BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The use of anthropometric indicators as discriminators of hypertriglyceridemia has not been thoroughly investigated. The purpose of this article is to comparatively evaluate anthropometric indicators as discriminators of hypertriglyceridemia in older Brazilian adults.
METHODS: This cross-sectional study derived from population-based epidemiological research involving 316 community-dwelling older adults (60-105 years old).
RESULTS: Except for the conicity index and the body adiposity index in the group of women, all other anthropometric indicators (i. e., body mass index, waist and calf circumferences, triceps skinfold thickness, and waist-stature and waist-hip ratios) were sufficient to identify hypertriglyceridemia in the population.
CONCLUSIONS: We endorse anthropometric indicators for use in screening for hypertriglyceridemia in older Brazilian adults.
