Abstract | The link between abdominal obesity and other serious complications such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and even some cancers, is now fully recognized. Abdominal obesity is characterized by adipose mass in the trunk and abdomen. In men, a waist to hip ratco higher than 1.0 is considered a sign of abdominal obesity, whereas one higher than 0.85 is the sign of this type in women. | |
Summary | Povezava med trebušno debelostjo in resnejšimi posledicami, kot so npr. sladkorna bolezen, bolezni srca in ožilja in nekatere vrste raka, je danes že dobro poznana. Značilno za trebušno debelost je nalaganje maščevja v predelu trupa in trebuha. Pri moškem se razmerje med obsegom trebuha in bokov, večje kot 1.0, že šteje za trebušno debelost, pri ženskah pa mora biti to razmerje večje kot 0.85. | |
