Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between body fat content and serum lipids in college students. A total of 61 (15 males and 46 females) students of W university in Iksan, between June 2015 and July 2015, were enrolled for analysis. The relationship of serum lipid with BMI, and body fat percent measured by impedance fat meter (InBody 520) was analyzed. The study population was divided into three groups according to the InBody 520's guideline. Group I accounted for 26.7% of men and 10.9% of women. Weight and BMI were significantly different among the three groups in men and women (p<0.05); whereas height was not. In men, serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, and hemoglobin were significantly different between the three groups (p<0.05). Conversely, in women, serum total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, and alanine transferase were significantly different between the three groups (p<0.05). However, there were no differences in other variables between the three groups. BMI was significantly different among three groups in both men and women (p<0.05). In men and women, body fat percent was correlated with BMI, weight, total cholesterol, and low density lipoprotein cholesterol. Multiple regression analysis on total cholesterol indicates that body fat percent, BMI, and hemoglobin were not significantly independent variables in men and women. This study showed that body fat percent was significantly associated with other obesity markers and serum lipids.

본 연구는 대학생을 대상으로 체지방률과 혈청 지질 수준의 관련성을 알아보고자 시행하였다. 2015년 6월부터 8월까지 W대학에 재학중인 남자 15명 여자 46명을 대상으로 신체계측, 체지방률, 혈액 검사 등을 실시하였다. 체지방률을 InBody 제조사 guideline에 따라 세 그룹으로 나누었는데 1군 남자의 비율은 26.7%, 여자의 비율은 10.9%였다. 세 그룹에서 체중과 체질량지수는 남녀 모두 유의한 차이를 보였으나(p<0.05) 신장은 유의한 차이가 없었다. 남자는 세 그룹에서 총콜레스테롤, 중성지방, 저밀도지단백콜레스테롤, 헤모글로빈이 유의한 차이를 보였고(p<0.05), 여자에서는 총콜레스테롤, 저밀도지단백콜레스테롤, 알라닌전이효소가 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 남녀 모두 각 변수들과의 상관관계를 분석한 결과 체지방 비율은 BMI와 높은 상관관계를 가지고 있었고, 체중, 총콜레스테롤, LDL-C와 유의한 상관관계를 보였다(p<0.05). 또한 심혈관계 질환의 위험인자인 총콜레스테롤에 영향을 미치는 변수를 파악하기 위해 총콜레스테롤을 종속변수로 하고 BMI, 체지방률, 헤모글로빈을 독립변수로 하여 다중회귀분석을 실시하였으나 남녀 모두 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 본 연구는 체지방률과 혈청 지질 수준과 유의한 관계가 있음을 보여준다.
