Analysis of the relationship between body mass index,body adiposity index,and metabolic syndrome in women over 40 years old
To evaluate the relationship between body mass index(BMI),body adiposity index(BAI),and meta-bolic syndrome(MS)in women over the age of 40,a case-control study was carried out.246 patients diagnosed with MS from the community physical examination population in Ningde city of Fujian province were selected as the case group.The control group was paired 1∶1 according to the same period,region,age,and gender.The personal information,human morphology measurement indicators,and blood sample laboratory testing indica-tors of the case group and control group were analyzed.The data were analyzed using SPSS 21.0 software.Re-sults show that the fasting blood glucose,2-hour postprandial blood glucose,total cholesterol(TC),triglycer-ides(TG),low-density lipoprotein(LDL-C),systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,BAI,BMI,and waist circumference(WC)of the case group were all higher than those of the control group,with statistically sig-nificant differences(P<0.05).The correlation analysis results show that the correlation coefficients between BMI and fasting blood glucose and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose in MS patients are 0.417 and 0.314(P<0.001),respectively.The correlation coefficients between BAI and fasting blood glucose and 2-hour postpran-dial blood glucose are higher,with r values reaching 0.526 and 0.441(P<0.001),respectively.After adjusting for confounding factors such as age,BMI was the risk factor for MS,with an OR(95%CI)of 1.223(1.163,1.287)and BAI(95%CI)of 1.728(1.548,1.929).In conclusion,compared with BMI,the correlation between BAI and metabolic indicators of MS is more advantageous.On the other hand,similar to BMI,BAI can also bet-ter predict the abnormalities of metabolic indicators in women over 40 years old with MS.
