Perfil lipídico e glicídico de pacientes atendidos em ambulatório e sua correlação com índices antropométricos

Abstract: Among women, the anthropometric indices waist circumference, waist-to-height ratio and body mass index proved good predictors of HDL cholesterol, showing the importance of using these parameters in clinical practice and for screening of cardiovascular risk.

“…In the present study, among the anthropometric variables, WC was best correlated with TG (positively) and HDL (negatively). There was no significant difference in lipid profile among the two BMI groups in males and females; in contrast, the Brazilian study[ 6 ] reports gender differences influencing the association between lipid parameters and anthropometric variables.…”

“…2 The excess adipose tissue, mostly abdominal, is linked to a high prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD). 3 Obesity causes dyslipidemia where there are elevations of triglycerides (TG), production of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) particles, and reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). These abnormalities affect insulin resistance and lipid metabolism; apoprotein production and lipoprotein lipase regulation.…”
