hypertriglyCeridemiC body mass index
South Asians have a higher incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD) than individuals of European descent1 and present with first acute myocardial infarction at younger ages.2 In the study by Joshi et al,2 among the several CHD risk factors that differentiated native South Asians from those living in other countries was an increase in abdominal obesity.

متن کاملUtility of the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype in the cardiometabolic risk assessment of youth stratified by body mass index.
BACKGROUND It is unclear whether the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype (HTWP) can be used to identify those at most risk of cardiometabolic disorders. OBJECTIVES The utility of the HTWP as a useful predictor of cardiometabolic risk in youth stratified by body mass index was assessed. METHODS Three hundred and eighty-seven children (12-17.5 years) were used within this cross-sectional stu...
متن کاملHypertriglyceridemic waist and cardiometabolic risk in hypertensive women.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association between hypertriglyceridemic waist (HW) and cardiometabolic risk factors in women with hypertension. METHODS A cross-sectional study was performed in 218 patients monitored by HiperDia (Enrollment and Monitoring Program for Hypertensive and Diabetic Individuals) in two health units in São Luis, MA, Brazil.

متن کاملHypertriglyceridemic Waist
Background—The present study tested the hypothesis that simple variables, such as waist circumference and fasting plasma triglyceride (TG) concentrations, could be used as screening tools for the identification of men characterized by a metabolic triad of nontraditional risk factors (elevated insulin and apolipoprotein [apo] B and small, dense LDL particles). Methods and Results—Results of the ...
