Abstract

Obesity is associated with higher prevalence of type2 diabetes and hypertension. Objectives were determining prevalence of obesity, type2 diabetes and hypertension in a rural village. This cross sectional study included 1,000 male and female ≥ 20 years. Blood pressure, anthropometry, fasting and 2 hr post-prandial glucose were determined. Results showed 29.7% overweight and 45.6% obese. Visceral obesity, by waist circumference (WC), was 24.4% in males and 69.2% in females. Prevalence of pre-diabetes and diabetes was 5.7% and 9.6%, respectively, while hypertension was 32.1%. BMIcut-off diabetes predictors were 27.5-29.8 Kg/m² while hypertension predictors were 26.05–28.6 Kg/m². WCcut-off diabetes predictors were 93.5 cm in males and 97.5 cm for females, while for hypertension were 90.5 and 94.5 cm similarly. Logistic regression showed WC, age and family history of diabetes increasing risk of comorbidities. To conclude, obesity is associated with increased prevalence of type2 diabetes and hypertension thus we recommend introducing simple anthropometry for early detection of obesity and its' comorbidities.

人体测量指标在预测埃及农村人口肥胖合并症中的作用
肥胖与2型糖尿病和高血压的高患病率有关。目的是确定农村肥胖、2型糖尿病和高血压的患病率。这项横断面研究包括1000名年龄≥20岁的男性和女性。测量血压、人体测量、空腹和餐后2小时血糖。结果:29.7%超重,45.6%肥胖。以腰围(WC)计算,内脏型肥胖男性占24.4%,女性占69.2%。糖尿病前期和糖尿病患病率分别为5.7%和9.6%,高血压患病率为32.1%。bmiccut -off糖尿病预测因子为27.5-29.8 Kg/m²,高血压预测因子为26.05-28.6 Kg/m²。WCcut-off糖尿病预测因子男性为93.5 cm,女性为97.5 cm,而高血压预测因子同样为90.5 cm和94.5 cm。Logistic回归分析显示,WC、年龄和糖尿病家族史增加了合并症的风险。综上所述,肥胖与2型糖尿病和高血压的患病率增加有关,因此我们建议引入简单的人体测量法来早期发现肥胖及其合并症。
