Body mass index and mortality in asian populations: implications for obesity cut-points.

June Stevens1, Eric M Nowicki.   

Abstract

Investigators have questioned whether body mass index (BMI, kg/m2) cut-points for obesity used in the United States and Europe are appropriate for Asian countries. A recent study examined the association between BMI and mortality in a population-based cohort of Japanese men and women. These and other results did not indicate a need for lower cut-points in Asians.
