      abstract     = {High levels of adiposity in the population have a major
                      impact on various diseases, but previous epidemiologic
                      studies have largely been restricted to simple
                      anthropometric measures such as the body mass index (BMI),
                      an imperfect predictor of disease risk. There is a critical
                      need for the use of improved measures of relative weight and
                      body composition in large-scale, population-based
                      research.The current article presents initial descriptive
                      results of body composition and fat distribution based on
                      the midterm baseline dataset of the German National Cohort,
                      which included 101,817 participants who were examined in
                      18 study centers in Germany between March 2014 and March
                      2017. The anthropometric measures encompassed body weight,
                      height, waist and hip circumference, bioelectrical impedance
                      analysis (BIA), sonography of abdominal adipose tissue,
                      3D-body scanning, and magnetic resonance imaging.BMI
                      analyses showed that $46.2\%$ of men and $29.7\%$ of women
                      were overweight and $23.5\%$ of men and $21.2\%$ of women
                      were obese. On average, women in almost all age groups
                      demonstrated more subcutaneous adipose tissue layer
                      thickness than men. The mean values of visceral adipose
                      tissue layer thickness, on the other hand, were higher among
                      men than among women in all age groups and increased
                      continuously across age groups in both sexes.The
                      comprehensive assessment of body composition and fat
                      distribution provides novel future opportunities for
                      detailed epidemiologic analyses of overweight and adiposity
                      in relation to the development of chronic diseases.},
