Obesity and aging are associated with an inflammatory state, which represents the common background for a wide range of diseases. This study aims to explore the correlation between hsCRP, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, IFN-γ, and white blood cell count (WBC) and adipometrics (arm, waist, and hip circumferences: AC, WC, HC; total body fat mass: TBFM, visceral fat level: VFL, body mass index: BMI; waist/hip ratio: WHR; waist/height ratio: WHtR) in young and healthy adults aged 20-35 years old. The subjects were divided by BMI into the overweight/obesity (OW/OB) group and normal weight (NW) group, and by hsCRP level into Group 1 (<1 mg/L), Group 2 (≥1-2.99 mg/L), and Group 3 (≥3 mg/L). The concentration of all inflammatory biomarkers was significantly higher in the OW/OB group compared to the NW group, with the exception of IL-1β. Significant positive correlations were found between hsCRP, TNF-α, WBC, and all adipometrics; between IL-6 and WHR, WHtR, BMI, TBFM, and VFL; and between IFN-γ and HC, BMI, and TBFM. IL-1β correlates positively with WHR and VFL. In Groups 1-3, all the differences between the adipometrics showed significant differences. Subclinical inflammation persists in association with being overweight and obese in healthy young adults aged 20-35 years old.
肥胖和衰老与炎症状态有关,炎症状态是多种疾病的共同背景。本研究旨在探讨 hsCRP、IL-1β、IL-6、TNF-α、IFN-γ 和白细胞计数(WBC)与体脂参数(臂围、腰围和臀围:AC、WC、HC;全身脂肪量:TBFM、内脏脂肪水平:VFL、体重指数:BMI;腰臀比:WHR;腰高比:WHtR)在 20-35 岁年轻健康成年人中的相关性。受试者根据 BMI 分为超重/肥胖(OW/OB)组和正常体重(NW)组,根据 hsCRP 水平分为第 1 组(<1mg/L)、第 2 组(≥1-2.99mg/L)和第 3 组(≥3mg/L)。与 NW 组相比,OW/OB 组所有炎症生物标志物的浓度均显著升高,除了 IL-1β。hsCRP、TNF-α、WBC 与所有体脂参数呈显著正相关;IL-6 与 WHR、WHtR、BMI、TBFM 和 VFL 呈显著正相关;IFN-γ 与 HC、BMI 和 TBFM 呈显著正相关。IL-1β 与 WHR 和 VFL 呈正相关。在第 1-3 组中,所有体脂参数之间的差异均有显著差异。在 20-35 岁的健康年轻成年人中,超重和肥胖与亚临床炎症持续存在相关。
