Rapid eating has been demonstrated to be associated with obesity and overweight. However, few studies have characterized the separate relationships of eating speed with visceral and subcutaneous fat mass or circulating adiponectin concentration. We hypothesized that rapid eating is associated with the larger visceral fat tissue (VFT) area and lower adiponectin concentration, but not with the subcutaneous fat tissue (SFT) area in men and women. We performed a cross-sectional study of 712 adults aged 20-86 years (528 men and 184 women; mean ± SD age 59.36 ± 13.61 years). The participants completed a self-reported questionnaire, and underwent anthropometric and laboratory measurements and computed tomographic imaging of the abdomen as a part of annual medical check-ups. Multivariate linear regression analyses revealed that rapid eating was associated with larger visceral (B = 24.74; 95% CI 8.87-40.61, p = 0.002) and subcutaneous fat areas (B = 31.31; 95% CI 12.23-50.38, p = 0.001), lower adiponectin concentration (B = - 2.92; 95% CI - 4.39- - 1.46, p < 0.001), higher body mass index (BMI) (B = 2.13; 95% CI 1.02-3.25, p < 0.001), and larger waist circumference (B = 5.23; 95% CI 2.16-8.30, p < 0.001) in men, which is partially consistent with the hypothesis. In contrast, rapid eating was found to be associated only with BMI, and not with abdominal adipose area or adiponectin concentration in women, which is a result that is not consistent with the hypothesis. These results suggest that there is no difference in the association of rapid eating with VFT and SFT areas.
快速进食已被证明与肥胖和超重有关。然而，很少有研究描述进食速度与内脏和皮下脂肪量或循环脂联素浓度的单独关系。我们假设，在男性和女性中，快速进食与更大的内脏脂肪组织（VFT）面积和较低的脂联素浓度有关，但与皮下脂肪组织（SFT）面积无关。我们对 712 名年龄在 20-86 岁的成年人（528 名男性和 184 名女性；平均年龄 59.36±13.61 岁）进行了一项横断面研究。参与者完成了一份自我报告的问卷，并接受了人体测量学和实验室测量以及腹部计算机断层扫描成像，作为年度体检的一部分。多变量线性回归分析显示，快速进食与更大的内脏（B=24.74；95%CI 8.87-40.61，p=0.002）和皮下脂肪面积（B=31.31；95%CI 12.23-50.38，p=0.001）、较低的脂联素浓度（B=-2.92；95%CI-4.39-1.46，p<0.001）、更高的体重指数（BMI）（B=2.13；95%CI 1.02-3.25，p<0.001）和更大的腰围（B=5.23；95%CI 2.16-8.30，p<0.001）有关，这在一定程度上符合假设。相比之下，在女性中，快速进食仅与 BMI 相关，而与腹部脂肪面积或脂联素浓度无关，这与假设不符。这些结果表明，快速进食与 VFT 和 SFT 面积的关联没有差异。
