Add to ORKGObjective: Large waist circumference (WC) is associated with cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. The present study determined differences in lipoprotein particle size and subclass concentration and markers of vascular smooth muscle function in children using WC percentile cutoffs. Research Design and Methods: Participants were 182 children (87 black, 92 female) aged 8\u96<18 yr. Each participant had a measurement of WC and a fasting blood draw for the measurement of lipoprotein particle concentration and size and circulating biomarkers of endothelial function. Participants were divided into age-, sex-, and ethnicity-specific WC percentiles of below 75th, 75th to 90th, and at least 90th percentiles, and differences in lipoproteins an...
