Sagital Abdominal Diameter, But Not Waist Circumference Is Strongly Associated With Glycemia, Triacilglycerols And Hdl-c Levels In Overweight Adults [diámetro Abdominal Sagital, Pero No La Circunferencia De La Cintura Se Asocia Fuertemente Con La Glucemia, Triacilglycerols Y Hdl-c En Adultos Con Sobrepeso]

Aim: To correlate the sagittal abdominal diameter (SAD) and waist circumference (WC) with metabolic syndrome-associated abnormalities in adults. Methods: This cross-sectional study included one-hundred twelve adults (M = 27, F = 85) aging 54.0 ± 11.2 yrs and average body mass index (BMI) of 30.5 ± 9.0 kg/m 2. The assessment included blood pressure, plasma and anthropometric measurements. Results: In both men and female, SAD and WC were associated positively with body fat% (r = 0.53 vs r = 0.55), uric acid (r = 0.45 vs r = 0.45), us-PCR (r = 0.50 vs r = 0.44), insulin (r = 0.89 vs r = 0.75), insulin resistance HOMA-IR (r = 0.86 vs r = 0.65), LDL-ox (r = 0.51 vs r = 0.28), GGT (r = 0.70 vs r = 0.61), and diastolic blood pressure (r = 0.35 vs r = 0.33), and negatively with insulin sensibility QUICKI (r = -0.89 vs r = -0.82) and total choles-terol/TG ratio (r = -0.40 vs r = -0.22). Glycemia, TG, and HDL-c were associated significantly only with SAD (r = 0.31; r = 39, r = -0.43, respectively). Conclusion: Though the SAD and WC were associated with numerous metabolic abnormalities, only SAD correlated with dyslipidemia (TG and HDL-c) and hyperglycemia (glycemia).26511251129Fuller, N.J., Jebb, S.A., Laskey, M.A., Coward, W.A., Ella, M., Four-component model for the assessment of body composition in humans: Comparison with alternative methods, and evaluation of the density and hydration of fat-free mass (1992) Clin Sci, 82 (6), pp. 687-693Biaggi, R.R., Vollman, M.W., Nies, M.A., Brener, C.E., Flakoll, P.L., Levenhagen, D.K., Comparison of air-displacement plethysmography with hydrostatic weighing and bioelectrical impedance analysis for the assessment of body composition in healthy adults (1999) Am J Clin Nutr, 69 (5), pp. 898-903Risérus, U., Arnlov, J., Brismar, K., Zethelius, B., Berglund, L., Vessby, B., Sagittal abdominal diameter is a strong anthropometric marker of insulin resistance and hyperproinsulinemia in obese men (2004) Diabetes Care, 27 (8), pp. 2041-2046Öhrvall, M., Berglund, L., Vessby, B., Sagittal abdominal diameter compared with other anthropometric measurements in relation to cardiovascular risk (2000) Int J Obes, 24 (4), pp. 497-501Petersson, H., Daryani, A., Riserus, U., Sagittal abdominal diameter as a marker of inflammation and insulin resistance among immigrant women from the Middle East and native Swedish women: A cross-sectional study (2007) CardDiabetol, 6, pp. 1-7Brekke, H.K., Lenner, R.A., Taskinen, M.R., Mansson, J.E., Funahashi, T., Matsuzawa, Lifestyle modification improves risk factors in type 2 diabetes relatives (2005) Diabetes Res Clin Prac, 68 (1), pp. 18-28Pimentel, G.D., Portero-Mclellan, K.C., Oliveira, E.R., Spada, A.P., Oshiiwa, M., Zemdegs, J.C., Long-term nutrition education reduces several risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus in Brazilians with impaired glucose tolerance (2010) Nutr Res, 30 (3), pp. 186-190Albert, K.G., Zimmet, P., Shaw, J., The metabolic syndrome-a new worldwide definition (2005) Lancet, 366 (9491), pp. 1059-1062Grundy, S.M., Hypertriglyceridemia, insulin resistance, and the metabolic syndrome (1992) Am J Cardiol, 83 (9 B), pp. 25-29Nordhamn, K., Sodergren, E., Olsson, E., Karlstrom, B., Vessby, B., Berglund, L., Reliability of anthropometric measurements in overweight and lean subjects: Consequences for correlations between anthropometric and other variables (2000) Int J Obes, 24 (5), pp. 652-657Schoen, R.E., Thaete, F.L., Sankey, S.S., Weissfeld, J.L., Kuller, L.H., Sagittal diameter in comparison with single slice CT as a predictor of total visceral adipose tissue volume (1998) Int J Obes RelatMetab Disord, 22 (4), pp. 338-342Frenhani, P.B., Pimentel, G.D., Portero-Mclellan, K.C., Burini, R.C., Sagittal abdominal diameter as a predictor of visceral abdominal fat, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and inflammation in overweight Brazilian adults (2008) Clin Nutr Suppl, 3 (SUPPL. 1), p. 126. , AbstractHeyward, V.H., Stolarczyk, L.M., Avaliagao da composigao corporal aplicada (2000) Led, , Barueri: Sao PauloSegal, K.R., van Loan, M., Fitzgerald, P.I., Hodgdon, J.A., van Itallie, T.B., Lean body mass estimation by bioeletrical impedance analysis: A four-site cross-validation study (1988) Am J Clin Nutr, 47 (1), pp. 7-14Friedewald, T., Levy, R.I., Frederickson, D.S., Estimation of the concentration of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in plasma, without use of the preparative ultracentrifuge (1972) Clin Chem, 18 (6), pp. 499-502Tsimihodimos, V., Gazi, I., Kostara, C., Tselepis, A.D., Elisaf, M., Plasma lipoproteins and triacylglycerol are predictors of small, dense LDL particles (2007) Lipids, 42 (5), pp. 403-409Levy, J., Mattews, D.R., Hermans, M.P., Correct homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) evaluation uses the computer program (1998) Diabetes Care, 21 (12), pp. 2191-2192Clasey, J.L., Bouchard, C., Teates, C.D., Riblett, J.E., Thorner, M.O., Hartman, M.L., The use of anthropometric and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measures to estimate total abdominal and abdominal visceral fat in men and women (1999) Obes Tfes, 7 (3), pp. 256-264Piernas Sanchez, C.M., Morales Falo, E.M., Zamora Navarro, S., Garaulet Aza, M., Study and classification of the abdominal adiposity throughout the application of the two-dimensional predictive equation Garaulet et al., in the clinical practice (2010) Nutr Hosp, 25 (2), pp. 270-274Koenig, W., Sund, M., Frohlich, M., Fischer, H.G., d Lówel, H., Dóring, A., C-Reactive protein, a sensitive marker of inflammation, predicts future risk of coronary heart disease in initially healthy middle-aged men: Results from the MONICA (Monitoring Trends and Determinants in Cardiovascular Disease) Augsburg Cohort Study, 1984 to 1992 (1999) Circulation, 99 (2), pp. 237-242Tracy, R.P., Lemaitre, R.N., Psaty, B.M., Ives, D.G., Evans, R.W., Cushman, M., Relationship of C-reactive protein to risk of cardiovascular disease in the elderly.
