Within-person variability in calculated risk factors: Comparing the aetiological association of adiposity ratios with risk of coronary heart disease

Background Within-person variability in measured values of a risk factor can bias its association with disease. We investigated the extent of regression dilution bias in calculated variables and its implications for comparing the aetiological associations of risk factors. Methods Using a numerical i...
