A waist circumference above 80 cm for women and above 94 cm for men is associated with an increased risk of chronic conditions. The representativeness of the AusDiab cohort is further supported by the similar prevalences of BMI-defined weight reported in the 20072008NHS.13 Furthermore, small differences in prevalences of weight status have only a small impact on total cost estimates. recognition and measurement requirements of AASB 138 Intangible Assets.
