- ASSOCIATION AMONG LIFESTYLE STATUS, PLASMA ADIPONECTIN LEVEL AND METABOLIC SYNDROME IN OBESE MIDDLE AGED MEN Hamid Mohebbi Mehrzad Moghadasi Farhad Rahmani-Nia Sadegh Hassan-Nia Hamid Noroozi Salud Insulin resistance Hypoadiponectinemia Breslow´s lifestyle index Low plasma levels of the adiponectin characterize obesity and high levels of metabolic syndrome components. The aim of this study was to determine whether lifestyle status affects the metabolic syndrome or plasma adiponectin level. Thirty three obese middle aged men (aged: 41.93 ± 6.2 years and BMI: 30.2 ± 3.4 kg/m2; mean ± SD) participated in this study as subjects. Each subject´s lifestyle status was assessed by a self-administered questionnaire based on Breslow´s lifestyle index. Pearson´s correlation demonstrated a positive relationship between Breslow´s index and the plasma adiponectin (P<0.01), and an inverse correlation between Breslow´s index and some of the metabolic syndrome components (P<0.05). The results, also, showed that the plasma adiponectin level tend to decrease as some of the metabolic syndrome components increased. In conclusion, unhealthy lifestyles may cause hypoadiponectinemia and metabolic syndrome. These findings present reasonable explanations for the relationships between lifestyles and lifestyles-related diseases. 2009 artículo científico 1981-6324 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=93012711005 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=930 Brazilian Journal of Biomotricity application/pdf Universidade Iguaçu Brazilian Journal of Biomotricity (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.3
