However, the universally recognized cutoffs for these measures may be inadequate individuals of Ethiopian descent. Due to lack applicable cutoffs, studies recommend tailoring optimal screening thresholds each population's specific characteristics. Therefore, this study aimed determine body composition-based WC, WHR, WHtR healthy adult...
