Summary

The association between Morphological Indicators and Body Fat Distribution was studied in 1099 schoolchildren residing in Madrid. The contrast analyses between individuals who were normal weight and overweight or obese, reveal the utility of the parameters studied as complementary criteria in the diagnosis of the nutritional condition. We can highlight the adaptation to this purpose of the waist girth.
