%X <B>BACKGROUND: </B>Obesity is characterized by a chronic low-grade inflammatory condition. Two emerging inflammatory biomarkers, the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), have gained attention. However, the relationships between obesity and SII/SRI remain unclear.<BR><B>METHODS: </B>In this study, we analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2011 to 2018 among adults. SII-SIRI/SII/SIRI were categorized into three groups based on tertiles. The association between obesity and SII-SIRI/SII/SIRI was assessed by multivariable logistic regression models. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) plots were used to examine the nonlinear association between obesity and SII/SIRI. Finally, potential independent associations between obesity and SII/SIRI were further explored using subgroup analyses.<BR><B>RESULTS: </B>The study included 20,011 adults, of whom 7,890 (39.32%) were obesity. In model 1, participants in the high (Q3) level of SII-SIRI had a significantly association with obesity than those in the low (Q1) level group. The high level of SII and SIRI were positively associated with obesity as compared to low levels. Model 2 revealed a positive association between obesity and high levels of SII-SIRI/SII/SIRI. Model 3 demonstrated a similar trend. RCS curves revealed a nonlinear association linking obesity to SII/SIRI. Subgroup analysis showed an interaction between SII/SIRI and age.<BR><B>CONCLUSIONS: </B>Our research suggested that obesity was positively associated with SII-SIRI/SII/SIRI in U.S. adults. SII/SIRI may represent a cost-effective and direct approach to assessing obesity.
