Adenovirus-36 (Adv-36) has been implicated in the etiology of obesity. This study attempts to identify the prevalence of Adv-36 antibodies and compare BMI among obese Missouri adolescents. Thirteen obese Missouri adolescents were tested for Adv-36 antibodies via ELISA assay. Adv-36 antibodies were detected among 6 (46.2%) subjects. Mean BMI of the Adv-36 positive group and negative group was 43.5 kg/m2 and 35.4 kg/m2 (p < 0.05), respectively. This is the first such study of Adv-36 status among Missouri adolescents.
腺病毒36型(Adv - 36)被认为与肥胖的病因有关。本研究旨在确定密苏里州肥胖青少年中Adv - 36抗体的流行率,并比较他们的体重指数(BMI)。通过酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)对13名密苏里州肥胖青少年进行了Adv - 36抗体检测。在6名(46.2%)受试者中检测到了Adv - 36抗体。Adv - 36阳性组和阴性组的平均BMI分别为43.5kg/m²和35.4kg/m²(p < 0.05)。这是首次针对密苏里州青少年Adv - 36状况的此类研究。
