체질량지수(BMI)와 복부지방단층촬영(Fat-CT)의 융합을 통한 인천지역 중년 여성의 비만 검사연구

초록

To figure out the causes of obesity against middle-aged women, this study aimed to provide basic data for setting an obesity-related policy through analysis on diverse related factors. Against the healthy middle-aged women who visited ‘N’ Hospital Health Center in Incheon from April to November 2014, anthropometric assessment, body composition test and abdominal fat distribution test were conducted using Fat-CT. They were carried out against 159 women who agreed with the purpose of the study, using BMD, Q-CT. According to Fat-CT, subcutaneous and visceral types accounted for 39% (76 women) and 61% (119 respondents) respectively. In terms of BMI, ‘underweight (18.5kg/m²)’ and ‘overweight (25kg/m² or above)’ were 13 women (6.7%) and 60 women (30.8%) each with the average of 23.5± 4.11kg/m². Mean while, waist circumference, diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure and neutral fat were statistically significant at the 5% significance level. As getting older, muscle weakness offsets increase in body weight with abdominal obesity. A group with low BMI should also be considered due to increase in waist circumference.
