Abstract:
Objective To compare the obesity-related laboratory results between single abdominal obesity and symmetric obesity in adolescents. Methods A total of 11 460 young students in two provinces were surveyed.Among them 31 students with symmetric obesity (SO group) and 39 students with single abdominal obesity (SAOgroup) were enrolled into the analysis. The age, gender, and body weight were matched between two groups.Blood pressure (Bp), lipids, leptin (LP), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), fasting insulin (FINS), insulin sensi-tivity index (ISI), and serum uric acid (UA) were measured. Liver ultrasonic imaging was performed. The differ-ences of the laboratory results were compared. Results Compared with the SO group, in the SAO group, the inci- dence of fatty liver ( P = 0. 04 ), triglyceride ( P < 0. 001 ), apelipoprotein B ( P < 0. 005 ) as well as FINS, LP,and UA (all P <0. 001 ) were significantly higher, while apolipoprotein A was significantly lower (P <0. 005). LP were positively correlated with FINS (P <0. 001 ) and negatively correlated with ISI (P <0. 001 ). FINS were posi-tively correlated with UA ( P < 0. 001 ) and negatively with ISI ( P < 0. O01 ). Conclusion Adolescents with ab-dominal obesity have higher risks of endocrine and cardiovascular diseases than those with ymmetrical obesity.
