Waist and hip circumferences have independent and opposite effects on cardiovascular disease risk factors: the Quebec Family Study
Waist circumference hip circumference waist-to-hip ratio

A high waist-to-hip ratio is associated with unfavorable
cardiovascular disease risk factors. This could be due to
either a relatively large waist or a small hip girth.

The higher risk of type 2 diabetes in persons with a high waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) or waist-to-thigh ratio (WTR) has mostly been attributed to increased visceral fat accumulation. However, smaller hip...
Ultrasound measurements of intraabdominal fat estimate the metabolic syndrome better than do measurements of waist circumference
