Popis:	Background: Besides body mass index (BMI), new parameters have been developed to classify individual body shape. Aim: To investigate the relationship between BMI, waist circumference (WC), a body shape index (ABSI) and ABSI-adolescents among adolescents and verify which would better predict lower adiponectin/leptin (A/L) ratio and disturbances on glucose metabolism. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional study with 197 Brazilian adolescents of 14–18 years. Serum leptin, adiponectin, glucose and insulin were measured. A/L ratio, ABSI, ABSI-adolescents, BMI, homeostasis model assessment estimates of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and β-cell function (HOMA-β) and the quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI) were calculated. Results: ABSI-adolescents positively correlated with WC (r = 0.83, p
