2.5.1. Anthropometry 
CREST
Height was only measured at the baseline. The participant was asked to remove shoes and to stand upright with the back to the wall-mounted stadiometer so that the back of the head, back, and buttock touched the stadiometer. The participant was further instructed to look straight ahead and to hold the arms relaxed, hanging next to the body. The height was recorded in centimeters to the nearest 0.5 cm.Body weight and waist circumference were measured after the participant had emptied the bladder. Body weight was measured using a calibrated digital scale (Tanita WB-110MA). The participant was weighed in light clothes and asked to stand in the middle of the platform on the scale with a straight neck and eyes looking straight ahead while distributing the weight evenly on both feet. Body weight was recorded in kilograms to the nearest 0.1 kg.The waist circumference was measured with the participant standing to ensure equal weight distribution on both feet. The waist circumference was measured twice on the skin with a non-elastic band to the nearest 0.5 cm between the lower rib and the hip crest, and when the participant exhaled. The average of these two measurements was used.
