Anthropometric Measures and Lipid Coronary Heart Disease Risk Factors in Korean Immigrants With Type 2 Diabetes
Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing, 08/23/2011

Gender difference in the association between central obesity measures and lipid types should be considered in CHD risk assessment of Korean immigrants with T2DM.
