Abstract: OBJECTIVETo assess the predictive capacity of a recently described equation that we have termed CUN-BAE (Clínica Universidad de Navarra-Body Adiposity Estimator) based on BMI, sex, and age for estimating body fat percentage (BF%) and to study its clinical usefulness.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODSWe conducted a comparison study of the developed equation with many other anthropometric indices regarding its correlation with actual BF% in a large cohort of 6,510 white subjects from both sexes (67% female) representin… Show more

“…Additionally, we considered two dietary variables derived from a validated diet history [27]: adherence to the Mediterranean diet, according to the Trichopoulou index [28], and total energy intake. Regarding adiposity, we estimated the percentage (%) of body fat using the CUN-BAE equation, which is based on sex, age, weight and height [29]. Finally, we obtained information on morbidity.…”
