Association between visceral adiposity index and kidney stones in American adults: A cross-sectional analysis of NHANES 2007–2018

Abstract: ObjectiveTo explore the association between Visceral Adiposity Index (VAI) and kidney stones in an American adult population.Materials and methodsNational Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) datasets from 2007 to 2018 were used. Participants aged ≥20 years who reported kidney stone history and VAI were included. Weighted proportions, multivariable analysis, generalized additive model (GAM), and spline smoothing were used to evaluate the associations between VAI and kidney stones by adjusting gende… Show more

“…However, evidence regarding the association between CVAI and kidney stones (KS) is limited. Recently, a study conducted by Jiahao Wang et al [ 20 ], involving 13,871 American adults from the NHENSE database, found that for VAI values < 75.130, with each unit increase in VAI, the risk of kidney stones increased by 5‰. Another study by Bingbing Hou et al [ 21 ], using the NHENSE database and including 59,842 American adults, after standardizing VAI using LN transformation, the prevalence of kidney stones increased by 13% with each unit increase in VAI, dose-response and threshold effect analyses revealed a linear correlation between VAI and the presence of kidney stones.…”

“…Furthermore, the effectiveness of the body roundness index (BRI) as a dependable indicator of metabolic syndrome has been demonstrated in diverse populations and ethnic groups [ 16 ]. Wang J et al discovered a positive correlation between the prevalence of kidney stone disease (KSD) and the visceral adiposity index (VAI), suggesting that a lower VAI is associated with a reduced risk of future kidney stone formation [ 17 ]. Moreover, Lee MR and colleagues also unveiled that waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), and VAI were all linked to a higher prevalence of KSD and an increased likelihood of developing incident KSD.…”
