Compared to the subjects with normal weight and absent central obesity, the hazard ratio for chronic kidney disease incidence was 2.32 (1.26\u20134.27) among subjects with normal weight and central obesity and 1.81 (1.03\u20133.15) among subjects with obesity and central obesity.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec004\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Visceral adipose tissue was a significant risk factor for subsequent chronic kidney disease progression, and the association was identified only in the normal weight group.
