Abstract Background: To assess association between different obesity parameters and lung function indicators in a Chinese rural adult population. Methods: A total of 8,284 adults aged 20 to 80 years old from Xinxiang were recruited this study. Obesity including BMI, waist circumference (WC), hip (HC), ratio (WHR), height (WHtR), body fat percentage (BFP), basal metabolism (BM), visceral index (VFI) such as forced vital capacity (FVC) expiratory volume 1 s (FEV ) measured according previous guidance. Results: The prevalence defined by WL, WHR, WHtR, BFP 23.2%, 58.2%, 66.7%, 69.2%, 56.5%. In general, the women was higher than that men. average levels FVC FEV participants 3.19 ± 0.72 (L) 2.68 0.64 (L), respectively. Men have women. Lung group lower those non-obesity group, regardless gender. Spearman correlation analyses showed WC, HC, BFP, BM, VFI significantly correlated with . After adjustment for potential confounders further linear regression analyses, WHtR negatively associated function, while WC WHR positively function. Conclusions: Taken together, status is closely related general Weight control lose an important strategy improve reduce incidence respiratory diseases.
