Assessing the prevalence of major risk factors for cardiovascular disease in a sample population of university students and their relationship with body composition.
A prevalence study was carried out on a random sample of 193 16 to 26 year-old university students (94 females and 99 males). Total cholesterol, high density lipoproteins (HDL), low density lipoproteins (LDL), triglycerides (TG) and glucose, resting blood pressure, waist circumference, height, weight and body fat and muscle mass percentages were measured. The participants answered a survey to assess their nutritional habits, lifestyle and stress.
The major cardiovascular risk factors for males were ≥100 mg/dl (60.6%) LDL-C, >20% (50.0%) body fat percentage (BF%) and <40 mg/dl (39.4%) HDL-C; female risk factors were >33% (63.0%) BF%, ≥100 mg/dl (39.4%) LDL-C and <50 mg/dl (91.5%) HDL-C. Both male (12.1%) and female students (21.3 %) had criteria for metabolic syndrome and males (19.2%) and females (27.7%) had a high atherogenic index of plasma (AIP). Significant correlations with body composition were found.
Cardiovascular risk factors had high prevalence in this sample of undergraduate students due to alterations in their blood, lipid profile and anthropometric changes, suggesting that modifications must be made regarding their lifestyles and body composition.
评估大学生样本群体中心血管疾病主要危险因素的患病率及其与身体成分的关系。
对193名年龄在16至26岁的大学生（94名女性和99名男性）进行随机抽样患病率研究。测量总胆固醇、高密度脂蛋白（HDL）、低密度脂蛋白（LDL）、甘油三酯（TG）和血糖、静息血压、腰围、身高、体重以及身体脂肪和肌肉质量百分比。参与者回答了一项调查，以评估他们的营养习惯、生活方式和压力情况。
男性主要的心血管危险因素为LDL-C≥100mg/dl（60.6%）、体脂百分比（BF%）>20%（50.0%）以及HDL-C<40mg/dl（39.4%）；女性的危险因素为BF%>33%（63.0%）、LDL-C≥100mg/dl（39.4%）以及HDL-C<50mg/dl（91.5%）。男（12.1%）女（21.3%）学生均有代谢综合征标准，男（19.2%）女（27.7%）学生血浆动脉粥样硬化指数（AIP）较高。发现与身体成分存在显著相关性。
由于该本科生样本群体血液、血脂谱和人体测量学变化，心血管危险因素患病率较高，这表明必须对他们的生活方式和身体成分进行调整。
