Objectives of the study are to estimate prevalence of weight categories in a western Austrian population and to determine differences in primary coronary risk factors between weight categories in adults. The study population consists of 635 males and 693 females aged 25 to 64 years from the state Vorarlberg in western Austria. Age-standardized prevalence of body-mass-index 25.0 to 29.9 kg/m2 is 42.8% in men and 23.0% in women. The prevalence of a body-mass-index of 30.0 kg/m2 or more is 8.6% in men and 13.3% in women. Categories of relative weight correlated in both sexes significantly with all investigated risk factors, i.e. total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting blood glucose and systolic blood pressure. Significance remained in multivariate regression analysis in all parameters for both sexes, when controlling for age. Thus, the survey clearly shows the importance of relative weight as an indicator of elevated coronary risk and the importance of overweight for public health.
本研究的目的是估计奥地利西部人群中体重类别的患病率,并确定成年人不同体重类别之间主要冠状动脉危险因素的差异。研究人群包括来自奥地利西部福拉尔贝格州的635名男性和693名年龄在25至64岁之间的女性。体重指数在25.0至29.9 kg/m²的年龄标准化患病率在男性中为42.8%,在女性中为23.0%。体重指数为30.0 kg/m²或更高的患病率在男性中为8.6%,在女性中为13.3%。相对体重类别在两性中均与所有调查的危险因素显著相关,即总胆固醇、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇、甘油三酯、空腹血糖和收缩压。在控制年龄后,两性所有参数在多变量回归分析中仍具有显著性。因此,该调查清楚地表明了相对体重作为冠状动脉风险升高指标的重要性以及超重对公共卫生的重要性。
