Heatmap of the correlation between anthropometric indices. Age—age at recruitment; AVI—Abdominal Volume Index; ABSI—A Body Shape Index; BMI—Body Mass Index (marked with *** for visibility); BRI—Body Roundness Index; ConI—Conicity Index; eTBF—estimated Total Body Fat; HC—Hip Circumference; HI—Hip Index; RFM—Relative Fat Mass; WC—Waist Circumference; WCadjBMI—WC adjusted for BMI; WHR—Waist-to-Hip Ratio; WHRadjBMI—WHR adjusted for BMI; WHtR—Waist-to-Height Ratio; WWI—Weight-adjusted Waist Index; Cells—partial Pearson correlation coefficients (adjustment for age at recruitment and study centre, except for age at recruitment, which was adjusted only for study centre); Men—bottom-left half; Women—top-right half; *—WC, WHR and ABSI were used as representatives of the strongly, moderately correlated and uncorrelated groups of waist indices in the main analyses (the correlation groups are separated with black lines and indices within them are shown in alphabetical order).
