This study aimed to investigate the somatotype and obesity of adults in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China and to explore multivariate path analysis for the feasibility and scientificity of using somatotypes to evaluate obesity.
According to anthropometric methods, a cross-sectional study was performed on 10 indexes of 3438 adults (1690 men and 1748 women, aged > 20 years) living in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China (including Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Xibe, Uzbek, Tatar and Tajik). The Heath-Carter anthropometric method and body mass index (BMI) were used to evaluate somatotype and obesity, respectively. The feasibility and scientificity of using somatotypes to evaluate obesity were analysed by correspondence analysis.
Among the six populations, the somatotypes were mainly distributed as endomorphic mesomorph, mesomorph-endomorph and mesomorphic endomorph populations, accounting for 66.5% of males and 78.8% of females. The obesity rate (27.4% in males, 27.8% in females) of the six populations in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China was much higher than the average Chinese adult obesity rate (12.1%) and the global adult obesity rate (male: 11%, female: 15%). The distribution of BMI was significantly different (male: 0.000, female: 0.033) in different populations, and the incidence of overweight and obesity in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China increased gradually. This study found that there were significant differences in somatotype distribution among different obesity groups in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China (P=0.000). There was a strong correlation between overweight or obesity and endomorph-mesomorph, endomorphic mesomorph and mesomorphic endomorph. Furthermore, this study indicated that using somatotypes to evaluate obesity was reliable and scientific.
This study concluded that the somatotype of overweight or obese people was mainly related to endomorphic mesomorph, mesomorph-endomorph, and mesomorphic endomorph.
本研究旨在调查中国新疆维吾尔自治区成年人的体型和肥胖情况,并探索多元路径分析以评估体型用于评价肥胖的可行性和科学性。
按照人体测量方法,对居住在中国新疆维吾尔自治区(包括哈萨克族、柯尔克孜族、锡伯族、乌兹别克族、塔塔尔族和塔吉克族)的3438名成年人(1690名男性和1748名女性,年龄>20岁)的10项指标进行横断面研究。分别采用希思-卡特人体测量法和体重指数(BMI)来评估体型和肥胖。通过对应分析分析体型用于评价肥胖的可行性和科学性。
在这六个群体中,体型主要分布为内胚层-中胚层型、中胚层-内胚层型和中胚层-内胚层型群体,占男性的66.5%和女性的78.8%。中国新疆维吾尔自治区这六个群体的肥胖率(男性为27.4%,女性为27.8%)远高于中国成年人平均肥胖率(12.1%)和全球成年人肥胖率(男性:11%,女性:15%)。不同群体的BMI分布存在显著差异(男性:0.000,女性:0.033),中国新疆维吾尔自治区超重和肥胖的发生率逐渐增加。本研究发现,中国新疆维吾尔自治区不同肥胖组之间的体型分布存在显著差异(P = 0.000)。超重或肥胖与内胚层-中胚层型、中胚层-内胚层型和中胚层-内胚层型之间存在很强的相关性。此外,本研究表明用体型来评价肥胖是可靠且科学的。
本研究得出结论,超重或肥胖人群的体型主要与内胚层-中胚层型、中胚层-内胚层型和中胚层-内胚层型有关。
