Studies report that increased body fat can lead to health risks for individuals. However, some methods used for analyzing adiposity did not identify its distribution in the human body because they are typically measured using bioimpedance scales. This study aims to associate the presence of cardiometabolic risk factors in sedentary and active adult populations through anthropometric methods based on skinfold thickness measurements. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 946 adults aged between 18 and 79 years with prior informed consent. Clinical, anthropometric, and biochemical parameters, as well as some cardiometabolic risk factors, were evaluated. Almost half of the population (45.1%; n = 427) is sedentary. A significant association was found between the sum of the skinfolds (bicipital, tricipital, subscapular, and suprailiac) and the cardiometabolic risk factors evaluated, highlighting the cardiovascular risk associated with abdominal obesity, risk of insulin resistance, as well as the development of hyperglycemia, and hypertriglyceridemia. The bicipital fold was thicker (19.67 mm) in the population with a sedentary lifestyle than in the physically active population (18.30 mm). Furthermore, the skinfolds that predict higher metabolic risks were suprailiac and subscapular in sedentary and active populations. Thus, these skinfold measurements could be considered in assessing the adult population for early cardiometabolic risk detection, even in healthy and physically active people.
研究报告称,体脂增加会给个体带来健康风险。然而,一些用于分析肥胖的方法无法确定其在人体中的分布情况,因为它们通常是使用生物电阻抗秤进行测量的。本研究旨在通过基于皮褶厚度测量的人体测量方法,将久坐和活跃成年人群中心血管代谢风险因素的存在情况联系起来。对946名年龄在18至79岁之间且已获得事先知情同意的成年人进行了一项横断面研究。评估了临床、人体测量和生化参数,以及一些心血管代谢风险因素。几乎一半的人群(45.1%;n = 427)久坐不动。发现皮褶(肱二头肌、肱三头肌、肩胛下和髂上)总和与所评估的心血管代谢风险因素之间存在显著关联,突出了与腹部肥胖相关的心血管风险、胰岛素抵抗风险以及高血糖和高甘油三酯血症的发展。久坐不动人群的肱二头肌褶(19.67毫米)比体力活动人群(18.30毫米)更厚。此外,在久坐和活跃人群中,预测更高代谢风险的皮褶是髂上和肩胛下皮褶。因此,即使在健康和体力活动的人群中,在评估成年人群早期心血管代谢风险检测时也可考虑这些皮褶测量值。
