Impact of Prognostic Values of Waist Circumference on E Point Septal Separation Value & Triglyceride Level
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
Now a day’s obesity is most common global epidemic disease either in developed or developing countries. if the obesity is more abdominally located like increase in waist girth then this follows many consequences like cardiovascular problems or precursor for this disease like increase in lipid levels in the blood. A total number of 40 male subjects were recruited for the study. They were divided on the basis of WC i.e. > 102 cm or < 102cm. twenty subjects in group 1 and group 2 respectively. Their BMI and W/H ratio, Lipid profile and echocardiography was done in all required medical precautions. The EPSS value was calculated from the echocardiogram. WC showing moderate correlation with EPSS in comparison with BMI. TG levels in the blood also varied with changing WC and the former one showing high positive correlation with EPSS values. The WC has high positive correlation with echocardiographic determinant like EPSS and the triglyceride levels may be worsening the condition. So WC can be preferred parameter or indicative tool for future studies. Keywords: Abdominal obesity, Echocardiography, EPSS, Waist circumference.
