Abstract

To describe the body composition of overweight/obese adults and its association with some blood lipid index in overweight/obese adults in Hanoi. Method: A cross sectional study among 80 overweight/obese adults aged 40-60 in Hanoi, from August, 2020 to October, 2020. Results: Among overweight and obese people, the percentage of high cholesterol were 57,5%, the percentage of high LDL cholesterol were 65,0%, the percentage of high triglyceride were 58,8%. Linear regression showed that there were positive associations between LDL cholesterol with body fat mass, percent body mass and visceral fat (p<0.05) and negative association between HDL cholesterol with weight, BMI index, body fat mass, and visceral fat (p<0.05). Conclusions: The percentage of total cholesterol, high LDL cholesterol and triglyceride among overweight and obese people in Hanoi were high (57,5%, 65,0% and 58,8%, respectively). Some body composition indexes might have correlation with blood lipid indexes, but further studies need to be done to confirm these correlations.
