摘要：
Introduction This study examined and compared the association between body mass index (BMI) and BMI with waist circumference (WC) on lifestyle measure and health outcomes in Canadian long-haul truck drivers (LHTDs). Methods Two hundred LHTDs completed a survey on diet and physical activity, and participated in objective measures of height, weight, WC, and blood pressure. Results More than half of the sample was classified as obese (57%). Body mass index risk was significantly associated with poorer health (P < 0.05), increased systolic and diastolic blood pressure, increased body fat (P < 0.001), and sleep apnea (P < 001). When BMI + WC was used, additional significant associations were observed with age, years of experience, eating breakfast, and hypertension and malignancy. Conclusion Body mass index + WC is a more sensitive measure in assessing cardiometabolic risk in LHTDs than using BMI alone.
