广东韶关僧尼人群体脂分布对血脂、血糖及血压水平的影响

Influence of the Body Fat Distribution on Serum Lipides,Blood Sugar and Blood Pressure in Buddhist Monks and Nuns in Shaoguan District,Guangdong Province

目的 :调查纯素食的佛教僧尼人群体脂分布特征及对血脂、血糖及血压的影响。 方法 :测量体重指数 (BMI)、腰臀比 (WHR)、血压、血清总胆固醇 (TC)、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇 (HDL C)、甘油三酯 (TG)、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇 (LDL C)、HDL C/TC和血糖 (FBS) ,并统计学进行比较。 结果 :僧尼膳食为纯素食。经年龄调整后WHR 4分位组间各参数的均值比较结果显示除女性的舒张压 (DBP)随WHR升高而升高外 ,其余各项指标组间均值的差异无显著性。 结论 :僧尼的体脂更易积聚于腰腹部。WHR对僧尼血脂、血糖等代谢指标影响不显著。纯素食但缺乏运动不减低僧尼高血压的患病率。

Objective:To investigate the characteristic of the body fat distribution of the buddhists and its influence on serum lipids,blood sugar and blood pressure. Methods:In 372 buddhists,the body mass index (BMI),waist-to-hip ratio (WHR),systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP,DBP),total cholesterol (TC),high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),triglyceride (TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),HDL-C/TC ratio and fasting blood sugar were measured. Results:①In the buddhist monks,mean WHR were higher and mean BMI were lower than those in the buddhist nuns.②Only DBP in the buddhist nuns were significantly elevated with the increased WHR. Conclusion:In the buddhists the body fat distribution has their own characteristics,The body fat inclined to accumulate at waist and abdomen.This may be due to lack of exercise in their daily life.These characteristic did not influence the serum lipid level.The prevalence of hypertesion in Buddhists is not lower than that in common people.
