Agarwal is one of the largest business communities in India. To determine prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and their distribution according to educational status (ES) in this community we performed a study.
1781 (men 1039, women 742) of 2500 selected subjects (71.2%) were evaluated and fasting blood sample obtained in 1130.
Age-adjusted prevalence of risk factors was tobacco use 12.2%, sedentary habits 54.2%, overweight/obesity 54.4%, obesity 19.5%, abdominal obesity 61.2%, hypertension 36.0%, diabetes 19.2%, hypercholesterolemia ≥200 mg/dl 25.8%, low HDL cholesterol 29.2%, hypertriglyceridemia 32.8% and metabolic syndrome 22.3%. Low ES subjects had significantly greater prevalence of sedentary habits, low fruit/vegetable intake, hypertension, low HDL cholesterol and diabetes.
Cardiometabolic risk factors are highly prevalent in the Agarwal business community. Prevalence is greater in subjects with low educational status.
阿加瓦尔家族是印度最大的商业群体之一。为了确定该群体中心血管危险因素的患病率及其根据教育程度（ES）的分布情况，我们开展了一项研究。
在2500名选定受试者中，对1781名（男性1039名，女性742名，占71.2%）进行了评估，并采集了1130人的空腹血样。
经年龄调整后的危险因素患病率分别为：吸烟12.2%、久坐习惯54.2%、超重/肥胖54.4%、肥胖19.5%、腹型肥胖61.2%、高血压36.0%、糖尿病19.2%、高胆固醇血症（≥200mg/dl）25.8%、低高密度脂蛋白胆固醇29.2%、高甘油三酯血症32.8%以及代谢综合征22.3%。低教育程度受试者的久坐习惯、低水果/蔬菜摄入量、高血压、低高密度脂蛋白胆固醇和糖尿病的患病率显著更高。
在阿加瓦尔商业群体中，心脏代谢危险因素非常普遍。在教育程度低的受试者中患病率更高。
