This cross-sectional study examined the associations between health-related physical fitness (HPF) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in overweight and obese university staff.
A total of 340 university staff (109 women, mean age 43.1 ± 9.7 years) with overweight ( = 284) and obesity ( = 56) were included. The HPF indicators included skeletal muscle mass index (SMI), body fat percentage (BFP), grip strength (GS), sit-and-reach test (SRT), and vital capacity index (VCI). CVD risk factors were measured, including uric acid (UA), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and glucose (GLU).
BFP, SMI, and GS were positively associated with UA level ( = 0.239, = 0.159, = 0.139, < 0.05). BFP was positively associated with TG and TG/HDL-C levels ( = 0.421, = 0.259, < 0.05). GS was positively associated with HDL-C level ( = 0.244, < 0.05). SRT was negatively associated with GLU level ( = -0.130, < 0.05).
In overweight and obese university staff, body composition, muscle strength, and flexibility were associated with CVD risk factors. An HPF test may be a practical nonmedical method to assess CVD risk.
本横断面研究旨在探讨超重和肥胖的大学教职工健康相关体适能（HPF）与心血管疾病（CVD）危险因素之间的关系。
共纳入 340 名超重（n=284）和肥胖（n=56）的大学教职工（女性 109 名，平均年龄 43.1±9.7 岁）。HPF 指标包括骨骼肌质量指数（SMI）、体脂肪百分比（BFP）、握力（GS）、坐立前伸测试（SRT）和肺活量指数（VCI）。测量 CVD 危险因素，包括尿酸（UA）、甘油三酯（TG）、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇（HDL-C）、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇（LDL-C）和血糖（GLU）。
BFP、SMI 和 GS 与 UA 水平呈正相关（ = 0.239、 = 0.159、 = 0.139，<0.05）。BFP 与 TG 和 TG/HDL-C 水平呈正相关（ = 0.421、 = 0.259，<0.05）。GS 与 HDL-C 水平呈正相关（ = 0.244，<0.05）。SRT 与 GLU 水平呈负相关（ = -0.130，<0.05）。
在超重和肥胖的大学教职工中，身体成分、肌肉力量和柔韧性与 CVD 危险因素相关。HPF 测试可能是评估 CVD 风险的一种实用的非医学方法。
