[eng] Introduction: Obesity is a chronic disease characterized by an increase in fat mass and consequently by weight gain. The increase in the prevalence of obesity implies an increase in the prevalence of several obesity-related comorbidities. Several indices have been developed to determine obesity. The BRI is a new index to assess obesity. So far, only a few studies have been done using BRI. To learn more about this new index, a study is proposed whose objective was to analyze, in a large population, the relationship between a new index to assess obesity, the LBBB, and different sociodemographic parameters and healthy habits. Methods: Descriptive and cross-sectional study in 60,799 Caucasian adult workers in which the BRI (Body Roundness...
