Relación entre masa muscular y dislipidemia aterogénica en adultos jóvenes de 20 a 45 años del Hospital Provincial Alfredo Noboa Montenegro de la ciudad de Guaranda.

Abstract

In this research the relationship between the muscle mass and atherogenic dyslipidemia in young adults was analyzed. Several data was collected through a survey applied to verify the lifestyles, backgrounds and a presence of chronic pathologies, anthropometric and bioimpedance information, cholesterol tests, and triglycerides in order to identify the level of TGL/cHDL which determines the atherogenic dyslipidemia. This study was a cross investigation, done on 93 adults. Results were checked according to descriptive statistics from different variables such as Anova and correlation test. It was identified that the muscle mass was higher in men (p:<,0001*),and it rises due to physical activity (p:0,0102), however when aging the muscle mass diminishes (p:<,0001*). The TGL/cHDL level increases through aging (p:<0,0015*), and so does fat (p:<,0001*). It does not exit correlation between muscular mass and atherogenic dyslipidemia (p: 0, 6151). As a conclusion, it was not found meaningful bonds between those two components, nevertheless those ones who had atherogenic dyslipidemia (62%), shown up less muscular mass than the others who did not. As a suggestion it is quite important to get a deeper study of this phenomenon for stopping the possible diseases worldwide.
