Novel anthropometric indices like Waist-to-Weight Index (WWI) and Relative Fat Mass (RFM) show a stronger association with Overactive Bladder (OAB) than traditional measures. These new metrics offer improved diagnostic value for OAB risk assessment.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Public Health
  • Anthropometry

Background:

  • Abdominal obesity is a known risk factor for Overactive Bladder (OAB).
  • Traditional obesity measures (BMI, WHtR) may not fully represent body fat distribution.
  • Need for more accurate obesity assessment in relation to OAB.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the relationship between novel anthropometric indices and OAB.
  • To assess the diagnostic accuracy of new indices compared to traditional ones.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data (2007-2018) with 27,560 participants.
  • Assessed novel indices: Body Roundness Index (BRI), A Body Shape Index (ABSI), Waist-to-Weight Index (WWI), and Relative Fat Mass (RFM).
  • Employed multivariable logistic regression, restricted cubic spline (RCS), subgroup, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses.

Main Results:

  • Higher novel anthropometric indices positively correlated with OAB prevalence.
  • WWI and RFM showed superior diagnostic accuracy (AUC 0.680 and 0.661) for OAB compared to BMI (AUC 0.599).
  • A non-linear relationship was observed between RFM and OAB.

Conclusions:

  • Novel anthropometric indices, particularly WWI and RFM, are associated with OAB.
  • WWI and RFM offer better diagnostic value for OAB than BMI and WHtR.
  • Future research should explore combined indices and prospective studies for causality.
