The height-weight difference index (HWDI) is a new indicator for evaluating obesity status. While body-fat percentage (BF%) is considered to be the most accurate obesity evaluation tool, it is a more expensive method and more difficult to measure than the others.<jats:italic>Objective<\/jats:italic>. Our objectives were to find the relationship between HWDI and BF% and to find a BF% prediction model from HWDI in relation to age and gender.<jats:italic>Method<\/jats:italic>. Bioelectrical impedance analysis was used to measure BF% in 2,771 healthy adult Thais. HWDI was calculated as the difference between height and weight. Pearson\u2019s correlation coefficient was used to assess the relationship between HWDI and BF%. Multiple linear and nonlinear regression analysis were used to construct the BF% prediction model.<jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. HWDI and BF% were found to be inverse which related to a tendency toward a linear relationship. Results of a multivariate linear regression analysis, which included HWDI and age as variables in the model, predicted BF% to be 34.508 \u2212 0.159 (HWDI) + 0.161 (age) for men and 53.35 \u2212 0.265 (HWDI) + 0.132 (age) for women.<jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>. The prediction model provides an easy-to-use obesity evaluation tool that should help awareness of underweight and obesity conditions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2017\/7258607","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,6,11]],"date-time":"2017-06-11T17:02:58Z","timestamp":1497200578000},"page":"1-8","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Relationship
