According to the research studies, overweight and obesity increase biosynthesis of the prostaglandin and consequently increase the severity of dysmenorrhea. The aim of this study was to examine the prevalence and severity of primary dismenorrhea and its relation to anthropometr...

BACKGROUND Obesity, measured as body mass index, is associated with venous thromboembolism (VTE). Body mass index is a marker of excess weight and correlates well with body fat content in adults; however, it fails to consider the distribution of body fat. We assessed the association between anthropometric variables and VTE. METHODS AND RESULTS From 1993 to 1997, 27 178 men and 29 876 women 50...

BACKGROUND Obesity in pregnancy is a global health problem which is associated with poor pregnancy outcomes. The use of weight and height, measured at about ten weeks of gestation, to produce pre-gestational body mass index is recommended for the diagnoses of the condition but limitations abound in under resourced settings. OBJECTIVES To measure anthropometric indices such as mid upper arm ci...

The objective of the present study was to investigate the relationship between plasma n-3 PUFA composition and weight status. A total of 124 adults, stratified by weight status: healthy weight (n 21), overweight (n 40) and obese (n 63) were recruited. Fasting blood samples, anthropometric measures and body composition were collected. Plasma fatty acid composition was determined by GC. BMI, wais...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association between alcohol consumption and abdominal fat. METHODS Cross-sectional study carried out in a sample of male blood donors (n=1,235), aged 20-59 years, in the city of Cuiabá, Central-West Brazil, between August 1999 and January 2000. Waist circumference and waist-to-hip ratio were indicators of abdominal fat, adjusted for total adiposity. Weight, height, w...

Introduction: Anthropometric indices and metabolic risk factors of cardiovascular disease due to inadequate physical activity have been identified as factors influencing health. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to compare the anthropometric indices and cardiovascular risk factors with standard norms in academic members. Materials and Methods: The statistical sample of the study cons...

BACKGROUND Screen time has been associated with pediatric overweight. However, it is unclear whether overweight predicts or is predicted by excessive amounts of screen time. The aim of this study was to examine the direction of the association between screen time and body fatness in Dutch adolescents. METHODS Longitudinal data of 465 Dutch adolescents (mean age at baseline 13 years, 53% boys)...

Aim: The main purpose of this study was to examine the accuracy of a specific pedometer (Silva model Pedometer Plus 56013-3) and accelerometer (Silva model Ex3 plus 56026) in women suffering from obesity. The second aim was to study the impact of BMI, waist and hip circumference and waist-hip ratio on different pedometer and accelerometer positions on the body. Methods: Forty women with a BMI >...

BACKGROUND Previous studies have relied predominantly on the body-mass index (BMI, the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters) to assess the association of adiposity with the risk of death, but few have examined whether the distribution of body fat contributes to the prediction of death. METHODS We examined the association of BMI, waist circumference, and waist-to-h...
