We examined the role of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) on the association between physical activity (PA) and abdominal fat content in adolescents. Abdominal fat content was measured by waist circumference, waist-to-height ratio and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at 3 regions (R1, R2, and R3). PA and CRF were assessed by accelerometry and the 20 m-shuttle run test, respectively. Vigorou...
The object of this study was to assess the obesity in postmenopausal women, according to age at childbirth.We analyzed the association between age at first childbirth, age at last childbirth, parity, and subject obesity status (general obesity; BMI >25 kg/m, nongeneral obesity; BMI ≤25 kg/m, abdominal obesity; waist circumference >85 cm, nonabdominal obesity; waist circumference ≤85 cm), using ...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence of overweight, abdominal obesity and associated factors in people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). METHOD Cross-sectional study with 270 PLWHA. A questionnaire was applied to investigate sociodemographic, clinical and lifestyle characteristics. Weight, height and waist circumference were measured. BMI ≥25 kg/m2 was considered overweight, while abdominal ob...
conclusions waist circumference, whr and whtr were positively associated with homocysteine concentration in migraine patients. however, further studies particularly of prospective nature are required to confirm our findings. results in this study, 7.7% of men and 18.8% of women had hyperhomocysteinemia. abdominal obesity was prevalent in 3.8% of men and 27.1% of women. in the entire population,...
BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with increased risk for stroke. The breath-holding index (BHI) is a measure of vasomotor reactivity of the brain which can be measured with the transcranial Doppler (TCD). We aim to evaluate obesity as an independent factor for altered cerebrovascular reactivity. METHODS Cerebrovascular hemodynamics (mean flow velocities MFV, pulsatility index, PI, resistance ...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between proportionality of fetal and placental growth measured at birth and the risk for congenital cerebral palsy (CP). STUDY DESIGN We identified all live-born singletons born in Denmark between 1995 and 2003 and followed them from 1 year of age until December 31st, 2008. Information on four indices of fetal growth: ponderal index, head circumference...
OBJECTIVE To verify the correlation between anthropometric indicators of abdominal obesity and serum lipids in the elderly. METHODS Cross-sectional, descriptive, and analytical study conducted with elderly individuals of both genders enrolled in the Family Health Strategy Program of Campina Grande, PB, Brazil. Abdominal obesity was assessed by waist circumference (WC), abdominal circumference...
AIMS To evaluate the changes in glycemia, insulinemia, and oxidative stress markers during an oral fat load test in nondiabetic subjects with abdominal obesity and to analyze the association between postprandial oxidative stress markers and postprandial glucose and insulin responses. METHODS We included 20 subjects with abdominal obesity (waist circumference > 102 cm for men and > 88 cm for w...
Many diseases are associated with excess abdominal fat like cardiovascular diseases. Monitoring and controlling led to one of the many factors that can change status a person’s health. Awareness waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) be guide adjusting lifestyle maintaining normal WHtR value. This study developed assessment device automatically calculates value, displays health status, suggests ideal wai...
BACKGROUND Increasing evidence suggests that general obesity [measured by body mass index (BMI)] is positively associated with risk of esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). In contrast, previous studies have shown inverse relations with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, it is still unclear whether body fat distribution, particularly abdominal obesity, is associated with each type o...
