Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 3

Abstract

Introduction: In the rapidly changing scenario of food habits among young working population obesity becoming a measure thrust for health. For this reason, we influence to study its possible association with CVD & DD. The aim of study was to determine direct effect of different grade of isolated obesity on DD. Material and Methods: A case control study was designed to study obesity and DD. A total 57 cases and 57 control taken in study group using standard sampling procedure. Calculating BMI (Asian criteria) of all subjects then ECHO cardio graphic assessment done of all subjects in both groups. Result: This study was conducted at Department of Medicine, NSCB MCH Jabalpur (M.P.) Out of 57 cases 14 have found DD which is 24.6% of total cases (x2=12.97, p<0.0001). In cases group DD is present in different obese group not in overweight individuals. In study groups correlation of BMI with grading of DD we found there is grade 2 DD present only in severe obese group (BMI>30kg/m2). We found DD in both genders equally, there is no significant difference found. A significant linear trend of DD with increased BMI was seen. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that obesity is significantly related to the development of left ventricular DD when other known causes are excluded. A significant linear trend of DD with increased BMI was seen. In cases and controls groups there is significant different in biochemical parameters. DD appears not to be influenced by sex.
