ABSTRACT

Introduction:

Obesity is a chronic disease with excessive accumulation of body fat, exceeding the normal health level and affecting the physiological functioning of the body.

Objective:

To establish an obesity evaluation standard closely related to health based on sports medicine indexes, and to provide a new theory and method for the formulation of an obesity evaluation standard in China.

Methods:

Height, weight, skin fold thickness (shoulder, arm) and medical indexes (SBP, DBP, TC, TG, HDL, INS) of 108 female subjects in a city were tested by means of anthropometry, experiment, and mathematical statistics. All the selected medical indicators were evaluated according to clinical medical standards.

Results:

the body mass index of 108 women was positively correlated with such medical indexes as systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, insulin and so on (P<0.05~0.01).

Conclusions:

The correlation between medical indexes and BMI is high, and the abnormal rate increases with the increase in the level of obesity. Clinical indicators can be used as an important scientific basis for the establishment of obesity evaluation criteria. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment results.
