Fat distribution and gamma-glutamyl transferase in relation to serum lipids and blood pressure in 38-year old Dutch males.

摘要: In this study we describe the associations between indicators of fatness, fat distribution, and alcohol consumption (gamma-glutamyl transferase) with serum lipids blood pressure in a random selected group (n = 69) 38-year old men. Waist circumference, subscapular skinfold body mass index all had similar positive total cholesterol, triglycerides diastolic pressure. Gamma-glutamyl transferase levels were associated fatness distribution (waist waist/hip ratio, index, skinfold) (total LDL-cholesterol, triglycerides). both made independent contributions to explanation ratio. multiple regression analysis, gamma-glutamyl (after adjustment for ratio index) triglycerides), but not HDL-cholesterol Body only showed an relation triglyceride levels, whereas was regression. It is concluded that are potentially important indicator abdominal unfavourable lipoprotein profiles.
