(1) Background: Commonly used anthropometric indices have limitations that discriminate their relevance. The subject of this research was to evaluate the health risks associated with body composition using the new weight-adjusted waist index (WWI). (2) Materials and Methods: The research group consisted of two hundred and thirty-nine Caucasian women. Body composition was analyzed by the MF-BIA method using InBody 970. The WWI was calculated as waist circumference divided by the square root of weight. Biochemical parameters (lipid profile, glucose, hs-CRP and uric acid) were analyzed using a Biolis 24i Premium biochemical analyser. One-factor variance analysis, a post-hoc test, Pearson correlation analysis and WWI quartiles were used for the statistical evaluation. (3) Results: The results showed significant differences between WWI quartiles. Compared to the lowest quartile, participants in the highest quartile groups had the highest values of body weight (58.49 vs. 87.17 kg; p < 0.001), waist circumference (WC) (76.47 vs. 109.45 cm; p < 0.001), body mass index (BMI) (20.65 vs. 32.06 kg/m2; p < 0.001), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) (0.84 vs. 1.03; p < 0.001), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) (0.46 vs. 0.66; p < 0.001), fat-free mass (FFM) (44.97 vs. 49.12 kg; p < 0.001), fat mass (FM) (13.52 vs. 38.05 kg; p < 0.001) and visceral fat area (VFA) (56.94 vs. 150.62 cm2; p < 0.001), confirming a higher risk of obesity. The women in the highest quartile had significantly higher values of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), glucose (GLU), uric acid (UA), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and systolic and diastolic blood pressure (BP). The correlations showed a strong positive relationship of the WWI with WC (r = 0.924), VFA (r = 0.907) and FM (r = 0.901) and a strong negative relationship with %FFM (r = −0.9) and %SMM (skeletal muscle mass) (r = −0.887). The correlation analysis also confirmed a strong positive association with WHR (r = 0.964), WHtR (r = 0.944), FMI (r = 0.902) and BMI (r = 0.863). (4) Conclusions: Our results confirmed that the WWI is a useful tool for assessing fat and muscle components, as well as for assessing health risks.

The article examines the issue of training medical specialists in the use of innovative technological approaches to creating presentations to present the results of the project method.Modern innovative technological approaches, in the form of digital tools, for creating presentations to present the results of the project method are considered. Updating the forms and methods of organizing educational activities for medical education applicants ensures an increase in the level of digital literacy and practical use of digital technologies. Studies prove that the modernization of the educational process to European standards, digitalization of the educational process contribute to the activation of cognitive activity in the future medical specialist, which will further allow them to perform their duties qualitatively and work with electronic medical information systems in healthcare institutions of Ukraine.
