Key result

Point-of-care screening identifies specific BMI and visceral fat cutoffs predicting hypertension and hyperuricemia in women.

  • n=139

Why the study?

Metabolic syndrome disproportionately affects women in Indonesia, and early detection via biomarkers is essential to provide insights into its prevalence and risk factors.

Population

139 female participants in South Sulawesi, Indonesia

Population
139 female participants undergoing a comprehensive point-of-care health assessment in South Sulawesi, Indonesia.

Point-of-care health screening including anthropometric, blood pressure, and biochemical measurements

Outcome
Prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors and predictive cutoff values of obesity indices for hypertension and hyperuricemiasurrogate

Point-of-care metabolic health screening in Indonesian women identified specific cutoff values for body weight, BMI, and visceral fat index that predict hypertension and hyperuricemia.

Limitations

  • Need for further validation

Cite This Study

Yustisia et al. (2025) conducted a cross-sectional in Cardiometabolic risk factors (n=139). Age and obesity indices was evaluated on Hypertension, hyperuricemia, hypercholesterolemia, and obesity. Point-of-care health screening in 139 women identified cutoff values for predicting hypertension (body weight 57.7 kg, BMI 24.8 kg/m2) and hyperuricemia (visceral fat index 8.8).
