P-values for AUCs comparison in men: BMI-WC: 0.51; BMI-WHR: 0.84; BMI-WHtR: 0.11; BMI-HC: < 0.001; WC-WHR: 0.80; WC-WHtR: 0.002; WC-HC: < 0.001; WHtR-HC: < 0.001; WHR-WHtR: 0.10; WHR-HC: < 0.001. P-values for AUCs comparison in women: BMI-WC: 0.002; BMI-WHR: 0.68; BMI-WHtR: < 0.001; BMI-HC: < 0.001; WC-WHR: 0.001; WC-WHtR: 0.004; WC-HC: < 0.001; WHtR-HC: < 0.001; WHR-WHtR: < 0.001; WHR-HC: 0.003.
