ABSTRACT
Introduction: Obesity is a severe public health problem in Mexico and around the world. Abdominal
adiposity is closely related to cardiovascular disease (CVD), besides visceral adipose tissue has been
associated to insulin resistance, type 2 Diabetes, CVD, also in pulse wave velocity increase; which is a
related indicator to arterial stiffness.
Material and methods: It is a descriptive, cross-sectional study.
The participants were 40 young-adult-male aged between 21 and 32. Adiposity anthropometric
measurements like weight and height were taken in order to determine the BMI and waist circumference.
Besides total body, fat percentage was measured using X-ray dual absorptiometry and MRI for visceral
adipose tissue; also they got determined serum glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol, HDL and LDL
cholesterol. Moreover, arterial tension and radio-brachial pulse wave velocity were taken too.
Results:
BMI, waist circumference and visceral adipose tissue showed equal number of significative correlation
with cardiovascular risk factors. Visceral adipose tissue was the only item related to radio-brachial pulse
wave velocity.
Conclusions: Adiposity indicators are strongly related to cardiovascular disease in young
men.
