AbstractObjectiveTo analyze studies that assessed the anthropometric parameters waist circumference (WC), waist-to-height ratio (WHR) and neck circumference (NC) as indicators of central obesity in children.Data sourcesWe searched PubMed and SciELO databases using the combined descriptors: “Waist circumference”, “Waist-to-height ratio”, “Neck circumference”, “Children” and “Abdominal fat” in Portuguese, English and Spanish. Inclusion criteria were original articles with information about the WC, WHR and NC in the assessment of central obesity in children. We excluded review articles, short communications, letters and editorials.Data synthesis1,525 abstracts were obtained in the search, and 68 articles were selected for analysis. Of these, 4...
