comparison of novel coronary artery disease risk factors between obese and normal adolescent
Authors
abstract
background: coronary artery disease is considered as the most common cause of death in all societies including iran. this study seeks to compare the new risk factors of coronary-artery diseases in obese adolescents and control group. methods: in this cross-sectional study, amongst the obese adolescents registered in the nutrition clinic of ghaem hospital, 80 individuals were selected. as the control group, additional 80 adolescent students having the same gender and age as the obese group, but with normal weight were selected. these two groups were selected randomly and their serum level of vitamin d, anti-heat shock protein27 (hsp27), balance of oxidants and antioxidants, and homocysteine were determined and compared. results: in this study, 42 (53.2%) and 37 (46.8%) of the obese and normal weight groups were male, respectively. the mean value of triglyceride, cholesterol, and ldl in the obese group was higher than the normal group, but the mean value for hdl, vitamin d, homocysteine, pab (preoxidant and antioxidants balance), and anti-hsp27 was not significantly different between the groups. in the base of homocysteine >15 µmol/l, 26.6% of the obese group had hyperhomocysteinemia, therefore homocysteine may be a new risk factor for coronary artery disease in obese adolescents (χ2=4.072; p value=0.091). conclusion: the findings of this study showed that despite the presence of obesity in adolescence and adolescents, new risk factors are not present among them more than the control group. this was in contrast to what was seen in adults.
