Lipid profiles and body mass index of young students in Jordan Dr.Balasim Rasheed Habeeb Alquraishi ,Eman Rababah Abstract Objective: Toanalyze the lipid profile in a population of young university students in relation with their BMI. Methods: This study assessed 96 students with age between 18 and 31 years old who were classified according to their sex and their body mass index (BMI). The fastingserum submitted to lipid profile analysis, including serum level of total cholesterol (TC) , High(HDL-c) , triglycerides (TG)were measured by using enzymatic methodandNon HDLD and a fraction of cholesterol of low (LDL-c) which calculated mathematically besides of life habits and atherogenic data . Results:The mean BMI (Kg/cm2) in male (27.75 5.76) is higher than the mean BMI in female (23.17 2.78), P value (0.0001). The mean total concentration of cholesterol, LDL-c and Non HDL (mg/dl) in males (165.88 32.20, 85.00 39.94, 105.09 34.22) respectively is less than in females (194.27 52.04, 125.32 50.39, 139.14 51.35) correspondingly. The mean total concentration of HDL-c and TG (61.97 13.29, 94.80 35.51) correspondingly. Lipid indices, total cholesterol/HDL, LDL/HDL and Non HDL/HDL in male (2.91 1.02, 1.50 0.86, 1.87 0.99) respectively are less than those in female (3.73 1.24, 2.47 1.24, 2.75 1.25). Conclusions: The obesity of young males (25.00%) is more prevalence than the obesity of young females (2.28%). The risk concentration of total cholesterol,LDL-c and Non HDLand the lipid indices (Total cholesterol/HDL,LDL/HDL and Non HDL/HDL) are higher in females than males and this indicate that the young females have more risk to develop cardiac problems in older ages .

Assessment of lipid profile in some middle and upper class individuals based on their life-style and dietary habit was carried out using 35 volunteer human 19 males and 16 females. Their life-style and dietary habit were determined using a questionnaire. Anthropometric measurements of weight, height, waist and hip circumferences were taken, Body Mass Index (BMI) and waist hip ratio (WHR) were calculated, while the lipid profile was determined using standard biochemical proce-dures. The results of the anthropometric measurements showed that the mean weight, height and Body Mass Index (BMI) were 80.1±13.8 kg, 1.7±1.1 m, 26.4±4.9 kg m-2, respectively for the males and 78.5±16.5 kg, 1.6±1.2 m and 25.8±5.5 kg m-2, respectively for the females. There was no statisti-cally significant difference (p > 0.05) in all the anthropometric parameters measured for both sexes except for waist/height ratio (WHR). The results of the lipid profile showed that the mean total cholesterol (TC), High density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglycerides (TRG) were within normal reference range. Both sexes however, had mean low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) of 101.8±45.2 mg dL-1 and 119.5±43.7 mg dL-1 for males and females respectively. The total cholesterol/high density lipoprotein (TC/HDL-C) ratio revealed that mean values for the males and the females were 4.5±1.1 and 4.9±2.1 respectively. Correlation analysis showed positive correlations between BMI and LDL-C (r=0439; p=0.018), WHR and TAG (r=0.488; p=0.003), waist circumference (WC) and TRG (r=0.379; p=0.025). A high prevalence of overweight/obesity and dyslipidaemia (high LDL-C and triglycerides) were observed among the adults. Appropriate interventions such as regular exercise and periodic lipid profile screening should be advocated.Keywords: Lipid profile, dietary habit, anthropometry, Abia State

Methods: This study is a cross sectional study. The number of samples obtained was 42 samples where all were taken in the second trimester. Samples taken from RSUP Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Manado and networking hospitals around Manado that meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. All patient patients were explained about the research procedure and the signing of consent information. Blood samples were taken for examination of blood sugar (fasting blood sugar and 2 hours post-prandial blood sugar) and lipid profiles (total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides). After the data is collected, it is included in the SPSS version 22.0 program for data analysis. Results: Found 2 subjects (4.76%) who had abnormal fasting blood sugar and found 4 subjects (9.53%) who had abnormal 2-prandial 2-hour blood sugar. For lipid profiles, it was found 16 subjects (38.1%) who had abnormal total cholesterol levels, for LDL there were 13 subjects (30.96%) who had abnormal levels, for HDL there were 4 subjects (11.9%) who had abnormal levels and for triglycerides there were 23 subjects (54.76%) who had abnormal levels. There was a significant negative correlation between LDL cholesterol and fasting blood sugar (p = 0.002; r = - 0.455), and so did total cholesterol with fasting blood sugar (p = 0.047; r = - 0.302). There was a significant correlation between BMI and total cholesterol (p = 0.013; r = 0.371). There was 1 subject (2.38%) diagnosed with gestational diabetes melt and fasting blood sugar at 190 mg / dL, for prandial 2 hours post blood sugar at 309 mg / dL and for triglycerides at 617 mg / dL. Conclusions: Based on this study found the incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus 2.38% of all trimester II pregnancies. There is a positive but not significant correlation between blood sugar and triglycerides, whereas there is no significant relationship between blood sugar and other lipid profiles. There is a positive but not significant correlation of BMI in trimester pregnancy with total cholesterol.

Background: Diabetes is an important public health problem as global prevalence of diabetes has nearly doubled reflecting an increase in risk factors like overweight or obesity and dyslipidemia. Both obesity and dyslipidemia share a common pathogenesis associated with “insulin resistance”. Thus the aim of this study is to find out correlation between BMI and lipid profile in type 2 diabetics. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 136 type 2 diabetes patients visiting the Diabetes Clinic of College of Medical Sciences, Bharatpur, Nepal during Jan-Dec 2017 and who went through lipid profile testing. The informations were taken from hospital records. To find the significant association between categorical variables chi-square test was used. P-value less than 0.05 were considered as statistically significant. To find the association between continuous variables correlation was used. Results: Out of 136 diabetic patients 77.2% of patients were either overweight or obese. 92.6% of patients had dyslipidemia. Among which 58.1% had high TG levels, 56.6% had high LDL levels, 34.6% had high TC levels and 44.9% had low HDL levels. The overall mean ± SD of age was 54.54±12.03 years and of BMI was 28.54±4.57. Positive correlation was seen between BMI with LDL levels and negative correlation with HDL levels. The correlation with other lipid profile parameters were negative. These correlations were found to be statistically not significant. But statistically significant association was seen between gender with weight, total cholesterol and HDL levels. Conclusions: Obesity and dyslipidemia were highly prevalent. As BMI increases LDL levels increases and HDL levels decreases. Also increased weight and abnormal lipid levels of total cholesterol and HDL were found significantly higher among females than males.

Background: Obesity is a global health problem, especially in the Arab region, the prevalence of obesity is increasing. High body mass index (BMI) is a risk factor for many diseases, including cancer. Noticeably, breast cancer (BC) cases in Saudi Arabia occur at a younger age than western countries and different life style behaviours such as maintaining healthy body weight and physical activity may play a role in this. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between BMI and BC clinicopathological features. Methods: This retrospective study was conducted by reviewing the records of females diagnosed with non-metastatic BC over four years. The association between BMI and patients’ demographics, BC histological type, receptor status, differentiation grade, tumor size, involvement of axillary lymph node, and performed procedures was analysed. Result: We studied 315 patients with non-metastatic BC. The mean age at the time of diagnosis was 52.43 years ±11.63. The mean BMI was 30.21±5.77. The mean tumor size was 3.19 cm ± 3.52. We found that the mean age of diagnosis is significantly greater in obese women than other BMI groups with a P-value = 0.025. A significant relationship was observed between BMI classification and tumor size in obese female patients aged ⩾ 40 years with P-value=0.022 Conclusion: The relationship between BMI and BC is still not clear, in this study we found an association with age at diagnosis and tumor size in older patients, characteristics as histological types, receptor status, lymph node involvement, and grade were not statistically significant.

(1) Objective: This study analyzes the evolution of the body mass index (BMI) throughout the academic year associated with changes in the lifestyle associated with the place where students live during the course, lifestyle design, and health strategies for the university community. (2) Methods: A total of 93 first-year nursing students participated in this study. Data were collected throughout the course by administering self-reported questionnaires about eating habits and lifestyles, weight, and height to calculate their BMI and place of residence throughout the course. Data were analyzed using statistical analysis (Mann–Whitney, chi-square, Student’s t-test, repeated-measures analysis of variance, and least significant difference tests). (3) Results: We found that the mean BMI increases significantly throughout the course among all students regardless of sex, age, eating habits, or where they live during the course. At the beginning of the course, the mean BMI was 22.10 ± 3.64. The mean difference between the beginning of the course and the middle has a value of p-value < 0.015 and between the middle of the course and the end a p-value < 0.009. The group that increased the most is found among students who continue to live in the family nucleus rather than those who live alone or in residence. Students significantly changed their eating and health habits, especially those who live alone or in residence. (4) Conclusions: There is an increase in BMI among students. It is necessary to carry out seminars or talks that can help students understand the importance of good eating practices and healthy habits to maintain their weight and, therefore, their health, in the short, medium, and long term and acquire a good quality of life.

AIM: To investigate the effect of bariatric surgery on HbA1c and serum cortisol levels in morbidly obese patients without type 2 diabetes mellitus.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-nine patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy and whose body mass index was> 40 were included in the present study. Patients' files were reviewed retrospectively. Those with diabetes mellitus and those with age <18 were excluded from the study. Pre-operative and 1-year post operative data were documented. The obtained data were analysed by SPSS statistical program.RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 27.4 ± 8.4. 5 of the patients were male, and 24 were female. The mean body mass index of the patients was 44 ± 2.3. 1 patient [3.4%] had hypertension. Four patients [13.7%] had gastroesophageal reflux disease. The number of smokers was 7 [24.1%], and the number of alcohol users was 3 [10.3%]. There was a statistically significant decrease in HbA1c, body mass index values after operation [p value <0.01], but cortisol was not different [p value = 0.72].CONCLUSION: In this present study we found that bariatric surgery caused a significant decrease in HbA1c levels in non-diabetic patients, suggesting that bariatric surgery may prevent Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in obese patients.

Lipid profile comparative analysis was performed to reveal the interdependence of lipids with Circadian locomoter output cycles protein kaput (CLOCK) 3111T/C gene polymorphism in menopausal women with/without a body mass index (BMI) of ≥25 kg/m2. Methods: A total of 193 female volunteers aged 45 to 60 years were divided into two groups: Those with BMI < 25 kg/m2 (control) and those with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2. Each group was then divided into two subgroups: Those with the CLOCK TT-genotype and those with the CLOCK TC-, CC-genotypes. Lipid metabolism parameters were determined by the enzymatic method. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected via polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism technology. Results: There were no differences in CLOCK 3111T/C genotypes or allele frequency between the control and main groups. In addition, there were no differences in lipid profile parameters between women of the control group and different CLOCK 3111T/C genotypes. The total cholesterol (p = 0.041) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p = 0.036) levels were higher in the subgroup of women with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 and CLOCK TT-genotype as compared to the subgroup with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 and minor allele 3111C. Conclusions: SNP 3111T/C of the CLOCK gene is not associated with BMI however, data suggest that the minor allele of the CLOCK 3111T/C gene polymorphism may have a protective role in atherogenic lipid levels in women with a BMI greater than or equal to 25 kg/m2.

Gall Stone Disease

Introduction: Gall stone disease is common in northern regions of India including Uttarakhand. It is traditionally seen in fat, fertile, female of fourty. Apart from this, age, obesity, hyperlipidemia, smoking & diabetes are other risk factors. Gall stones show more association with elevated levels of triglyceride and low high density lipoprotein (HDL-C) where less association with total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein (LDL-C). Increased prevalence of gall stone reported in overweight. This present study conducted with an aim to find out the co-relation of lipid profile, BMI (body mass index) and gall stones in Uttarakhand population attending Shridev Suman Subharti Medical College Teaching Hospital, Dehradun. Material & Methods: Total 120 patients (10 M, 110 F) were included in the study following confirmation of diagnosis of gall stones on ultrasound. Age, sex, dietary habits, occupation, medical history and drug history of each patient were recorded in predesigned, tested proforma. The BMI calculated as weight in Kg/height in meter square. BMI of 18 to 24.9 were regarded as normal, whereas, 25 to 29.9 as overweight, 30 to 39.9 as obese and above 40 as morbid obese. The serum cholesterol, LDL, HDL and Triglyceride were estimated on a fasting sample by keeping patient nil orally for 12hrs after their normal meal. Results: Out of total 120 patients, 110(91.67%) were female & 10(8.33%) were male, with female to male ratio 9:1. The age-group of 21 to 40 years was the most common, with 64(53.33%) patients belonging to this group. Triglyceride was raised in 35(29.17%) patients, total cholesterol was raised in 7(5.83%) patients and LDL was raised in 5(4.17%) patients. The cholesterol was lowered in 13(10.83%) patients, HDL was lowered in 8(6.66%) patients and triglyceride was lowered in 3(2.5%) patients. Triglyceride & LDL were raised in 4(3.3%) patients, cholesterol and triglyceride were raised in 3(2.5%) patients and cholesterol and HDL were lowered in 4 (3.33%) patients. Patients with BMI of 18.0-24.9 were 72(60.00%), BMI of 25-29.9 were 36(30.00%) and BMI of 30-39.9 were 9(7.50%) respectively. Conclusion: The present study on presence of Gall stones which are more commonly found in females aged 21 to 40 years. Raised levels of Triglyceride and lower levels of cholesterol are associated with gall stones. There is no association between Increased BMI & presence of gall stones. BMI is associated with higher level of   Triglyceride. Key Words: Gall stone, BMI, Triglyceride, Cholesterol, and HDL-C.

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the treatment with bacuri seed butter (BB) on body weight, growth, body mass index, lipid profile, atherosclerotic indices, and liver function in dyslipidemic hamsters. Freshly weaned, male hamsters were divided into four groups: (1) normal group (NG)—maintained with standard chow (AIN-93G); (2) dyslipidemia group (DG)—maintained with hyperlipidemic chow (AIN-93G modified) throughout the follow-up period; (3) bacuri seed butter 25 mg/kg/day (BB-25); and (4) bacuri seed butter 50 mg/kg/day (BB-50). BB groups (25 and 50 mg/kg/day) were also maintained with hyperlipidemic chow throughout the follow-up period, and the treatment started after 21 days receiving a hyperlipidemic diet to induce hypercholesterolemia and maintained for 28 days. No significant differences in triglycerides and total cholesterol were observed for BB-25 and BB-50 groups when compared with NG and DG groups. On the contrary, BB-25 and BB-50 induced both increase of HDL-c (51.40 ± 1.69 and 51.00 ± 2.34, respectively) and decrease of LDL-c (103.80 ± 6.87 and 100.50 ± 3.95, respectively) when compared with DG (41.00 ± 2.94 and 132.70 ± 9.41, respectively). In addition, BB promoted a reduction in the risk of atherosclerotic disease by decreasing p < 0.05 the atherogenic index, coronary artery risk index, and LDL/CT ratio p < 0.05 and increasing HDL/CT ratio. On the contrary, no changes were observed in total cholesterol and triglyceride levels or in body weight, growth, body mass index, or liver function parameters. Thus, bacuri seed butter at doses of 25 and 50 mg/kg/day has positive repercussions on the lipid profile, more precisely on plasma HDL-c and LDL-c, and additionally promotes reduction in the risk of atherosclerosis in hamsters.

Background: A hormonal contraception which considered ideal is depot medroxy progesteron acetat. There are large number of acceptors choose this contraception because this contraception is considered safe, effective, and can be used after labor. The possible side effect which can occur are increase of lipid profile, body fat percentage, and waist circumference. The purpose of this study is to see the differences between lipid profile, body fat percentage, and the waist circumference of women of childbearing age who use depot medroxy progesteron acetat injection compared with non-acceptors.Methods: This study was observational study with a cross sectional comparative approach and was conducted at the Regional Technical Services Unit (UPTD) at Regional Health Laboratory in West Sumatera Province from December 2017 until June 2018. The samples were 46 DMPA acceptors and 46 non-acceptors. The sampling method used random sampling technique. The measurements of lipid profile was conducted with colorimetric enzymatic method, which is GPO-PAP for triglycerides, and CHOD-PAP for total cholesterol, HDL and LDL. The percentage of body fat examination was conducted using Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA). The obtained data were analyzed by using t-test. Abnormal data were confirmed by Mann-whitney non-parametric test with p<0.05.Results: The results showed a significant difference between DMPA acceptors and non-acceptors (p<0.05). In total cholesterol (p = 0.000), LDL (p = 0.000), triglycerides (p = 0.000), body fat percentage (p = 0.007), body mass index (p = 0.004), and waist circumference (p = 0.001). But, in HDL there was no significant difference between DMPA acceptors and non-acceptors with p value = 0.302 (p>0.05). There were significant differences in total cholesterol, LDL, triglycerides, fat percentage, body mass index, and the circumference of waist in both DMPA acceptors and non acceptors. There were no significant difference in HDL levels between DMPA acceptors and non acceptors.Conclusions: There were significant differences in total cholesterol, LDL, triglycerides, fat percentage, body mass index, and waist circumference between DMPA acceptors and non-acceptors. There was no significant difference in HDL between DMPA acceptors and non-acceptors.
