HUBUNGAN OBESITAS SENTRAL DENGAN PROFIL LIPID PADA ORANG DEWASA UMUR 25-65 TAHUN DI KOTA BOGOR (Baseline Studi Penyakit Tidak Menular di Kota Bogor, Jawa Barat)

We compared waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) with traditional anthropometric indices in healthy women aged 21 to 45 years from urban slums of Mumbai city, India. Lipid profile and inflammatory markers were measured in a subsample of 200 women, and their relationship with WHtR was examined. Mean WHtR was 0.50 ± 0.1, but a little more than half (51.9%) of the women had WHtR ≥0.50. WHtR could correctly identify centrally obese adult women, even when they were categorized as healthy or normal according to body mass index, waist circumference, waist to hip ratio, and percentage body fat. Also, in centrally obese women, inflammatory markers-namely, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, and interleukin-10-were significantly and positively correlated with WHtR. Thus, results of this study indicate that WHtR is a simple and effective anthropometric variable that has the potential to identify central obesity and the associated inflammation even in women with normal BMI.

The Relationship Between Waist/Height Ratio With Fasting Blood Glucose, Blood Pressure and Several Body Measurements in College Students

A cross sectional study was carried out to determine the relationship between glucose level, lipid profiles, and waist to height ratio (WHtR) among adults in a workplace setting. Respondents were recruited from government staff in two ministries, each from the federal territories of Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya, Malaysia. Socio-demographic information was collected using a set of questionnaire and anthropometric measurement including weight, height, percent body fat, and waist and hip circumference were measured. Antropometric assessments were measured and blood sample was collected in the morning before 10 AM, after the respondents undergone 12 hours of overnight fasting. A fingerpick blood sample was collected to measure blood glucose and lipid profiles. A total of 210 respondents were recruited for this study. The majority of the respondents (81.9%) were aged 34 years and younger. Approximately 16.8% were obese and 25.1% overweight. Based on WHtR, 47.1% of the respondents were classified as having WHtR≥0.5. Based on odds ratio, having a high WHtR (≥0.5) was found to be related to increased risk of having high BMI (OR=18.125; 95% CI 8.583-38.276), high triglyceride (OR=6.202; 95% CI 2.517-15.281), elevated blood pressure (systolic OR=4.351; 95% CI 2.026-9.344, diastolic OR=4.932; 95% CI 1.571-15.484), high blood glucose (OR=3.084; 95% CI 1.186-7.831) and low HDLC (OR=3.506; 95% CI 1.862-6.600). For the Short Research Article Hazizi et al.; IBRR, 4(2): 1-9, 2015; Article no.IBRR.19616 2 subjects of this study, WHtR was found to be significantly related to lipid profile and blood glucose level.
