The accuracy of self-reported weight and height to measure obesity has been evaluated, but no information is available on the possible error effects of self-reporting when estimating the association between body mass index (BMI) categories and the occurrence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We aim to evaluate if two different sources of information on height and weight (reported vs. measured) result in different risk estimates for non-fatal AMI events.
