Mid-upper arm circumference for identifying adult overweight in large-scale population-based surveys: empirical evaluation using data of the EAT Addis study, Ethiopia

Tigest Shifraw et al.

Summary: This study found that waist circumference and mid-upper arm circumference are alternative tools to identify overweight women. Both waist circumference and mid-upper arm circumference are effective in identifying overweight women. It is recommended to use mid-upper arm circumference for large-scale population-based assessments in low-income settings as it is logistically simpler and operationally feasible.

High Prevalence of Overweight and Its Association with Mid-Upper Arm Circumference among Female and Male Farmers in Tanzania and Mozambique

Laila Eleraky et al.

Summary: The study revealed a higher prevalence of overweight among female farmers in East Africa, especially in southern Tanzania, compared to underweight. The measurement of mid-upper-arm circumference (MUAC) could be a simple and effective tool for screening underweight and overweight individuals, with cut-offs determined by linear regression or Youden's Index.
