Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Stage Niemann-Pick Disease Type C using neurological severity domains including vertical supranuclear gaze palsy, ataxia, dystonia, and cognitive decline

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Neurological severity domains including vertical supranuclear gaze palsy — The neurological severity domains including vertical supranuclear gaze palsy recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Ataxia — The ataxia recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Dystonia — The dystonia recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Cognitive decline — The cognitive decline recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the npc staging result against the thresholds and context described above.
