Abstract
The effect of weight loss on body fat distribution was examined through the android/legs tissue and fat mass ratios indexes of central, abdominal obesity determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and their relationship with lipid profile changes.
Following parameters were determined before and after weight loss: body mass index (BMI), body weight (BW), android (A) and legs (L) tissue mass (TM) and fat mass (FM) and their %, with DXA and their ratios, indexes of abdominal fat distribution A/L-TM and TM% and A/L-FM and FM%, as well as lipid profile: total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), HDL-C, LDL-C, LDL/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C, TG/HDL-C.
BW of 62.96±1.2 kg and BMI value of 28.98±0.78 kg/m2 before the weight loss lowered to 49.96±1.3 kg (p<0.012) and normal BMI 22.81±0.62 kg/m2 (p<0.012). A/L-TMf% value decrease from 1.01±0.07 to 0.84±0.014 was significant (p<0.005) and A/L-FM% value decrease from 1.03±0.04 to 0.87±0.07 was also significant (p<0.004). A/L-TM value decreased significantly from 0.28±0.04 to normal value 0.23±0.02 (p<0.041). A/L-FM index value decreased significantly from 0.28±0.04 to normal value 0.19±0.02 (p<0.004). A/L-TM and A/L-FM after weight loss reached normal values. TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, LDL/HDL-C, TC/HDL-C changes were also significant.
It was confirmed that DXA indexes of central, abdominal obesity A/L-TM and A/L-FM were increased in overweight subjects before the weight loss and lowered significantly after the weight loss to normal values, indicating that normal BMI and BW reached after the weight loss were associated with normalized body fat distribution, and significant reduction of the atherogenic lipid profile indicating reduced atherogenic risk.
