What is A prospective study of waist circumference trajectories and incident cardiovascular disease in China: the Kailuan Cohort Study about?
## Background: Single measurements of waist circumference (wc) predict the incident cardiovascular disease (cvd); however, long-term patterns of wc and their association with the incidence of cvd are poorly characterized. ## Objective: We aimed to identify wc trajectories and determine their association with incident cvd (stroke and myocardial infarction) and examine whether the association persisted among individuals without obesity. ## Methods: We included 75,535 participants from a community-based cohort in china who were aged >18 y and free of stroke, coronary artery disease, and cancer in 2010 (the baseline). wc and other covariates were repeatedly measured in 2006, 2008, and 2010. wc trajectories were identified by latent mixture modeling. a cox proportional hazards model was used to examine the association between wc trajectories and incident cvd, after adjustment for age, sex, income, education, systolic blood pressure, lipid profiles, plasma concentrations of glucose, c-reactive protein, smoking, and alcohol drinking. ## Results: We identified 4 wc trajectories based on 2006 wc measurement and change patterns during 2006-2010: low stable (n = 12,072; mean wc 74.1-75.1 cm),
