Obesity and its complications observed in health examinations: introduction of ACI as an index of type of obesity.

Abstract:

:The prevalence of obesity observed in this study seems higher than that reported in the previous study. This is probably due to the characteristics of the subjects studied, since they were subjects admitted for health examinations with possible selection. However, the observation in this study clearly indicated that obesity was a strong risk factor for glucose and lipid metabolism, and cardiovascular system, implying a serious effect on health itself in the future. On the other hand, it was also noted that the reduction of body weight largely contributed to the improvement of these abnormal conditions, giving the rationale of weight reduction in the obese people. The type of obesity or regional fat distribution is reported important in relation to the complications. ACI, which was proposed here as a new index for evaluation of type of obesity, was predictive of the complications even in the subjects with normal OBI, suggesting its usefulness in health care.
