The purpose of this study was to establish health-related waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) cut-points associating with FITNESSGRAM’s body mass index (BMI) criterion-referenced standards in low-income children.
A secondary aim was to examine the classification agreement between the derived WHtR cut-points and various cardiometabolic blood markers using current recommendations.
Participants were 219 children from low-income schools (mean age = 10.5 ± 0.6 years).
Waist circumference, height, weight, and cardiometabolic blood markers were collected in a fasting state before school hours.
Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine WHtR cut-points that associated with a child meeting FITNESSGRAM’s age- and sex-specific criterion-referenced standards for BMI.
The derived WHtR cut-point was 0.50 (AUC = 0.89, p<0.001; sensitivity = 0.86, specificity = 0.82, and accuracy = 84.3%).
Classification agreement using the derived WHtR cut-point with various blood marker standards was statistically significant but considered weak to fair (kappa 0.14–0.34, agreement = 59%–67%, and p<0.01).
The WHtR cut-point of 0.50 can be used with strong accuracy to distinguish low-income children who met FITNESSGRAM’s criterion-referenced standards for body composition; however, the evidence was weaker for its use in distinguishing low-income children meeting specific cardiometabolic blood marker recommendations.
