ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the differences in visceral fat area measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis in different sex and age groups, and explore the relationship between visceral fat area and other metabolic risk factors. Methods This study enrolled 72 in-patients in the department of cardiology in Peking University First Hospital between August, 2014 and October, 2014. The visceral fat area and the subcutaneous fat area were measured by DUALSCAN HDS-2000 in all patients. Results were compared between different sex and age groups and the relationship between visceral fat area and metabolic risk factors were analyzed. Resu1ts Male had larger visceral fat area than female [ ( 114. 04 ± 38. 27 ) cm2 vs. (92. 09 ±30. 57)cm2, P=0. 019], while female had larger subcutaneous fat areas than male [(223. 92 ± 73. 58)cm2 vs. (270. 35 ± 82. 13) cm2, P =0. 019] . Subcutaneous fat area and visceral fat area were positively correlated in both male ( r=0. 777, P﹤0. 001) and female ( r=0. 601, P=0. 002). There were no significant differences in visceral fat area among different age groups (P=0. 582). And visceral fat area had a positive correlation with body mass index (r=0. 748, P﹤0. 001), waist-hip ratio (r=0. 577, P﹤0. 001), abdominal circumference (r =0. 752, P ﹤0. 001) and HbA1c levels (r =0. 413, P =0. 001). Conc1usions There are sex differences in visceral fat area and subcutaneous fat area. The visceral fat area max be related to blood glucose levels and presence of diabetes.
