Additionally, the sum of skinfold thickness (bicipital, tricipital, suprailiac, and subscapular) was associated with abdominal obesity, waist-to-height ratio, hyperglycemia, HOMA-IR, and C-reactive protein; data were consistent with previous studies in adolescents that reported associations between the sum of skinfolds with HOMA-IR, C-reactive protein, and blood pressure [54]. Here, CRP is linked to Abdominal obesity.
