In terms of research annually, USA, India, Japan, Brazil and Canada are some of the leading countries where maximum studies related to bloodstream infection are being carried out. As reported from the above article, The body mass index (BMI), or Quetelet index, is a measure of relative weight based on an individual's mass and height. The BMI is used in a wide variety of contexts as a simple method to assess how much an individual's body weight departs from what is normal or desirable for a person of his or her height. There is however often vigorous debate, particularly regarding at which value of the BMI scale the threshold for overweight and obese should be set, but also about a range of perceived limitations and problems with the BMI.
