A Comparative Study of Blood Pressure, Oral Glucose Tolerance Test and Lipid Profile between Non Diabetic Obese and Non-Obese Women
2015
Obesity had been the most prevalent disorder in developed countries, but now considered to be the common nutritional disorder in both developing and developed countries. To compare blood pressure, glucose levels and lipid profile between non diabetic obese women in comparison to non-diabetic non obese women, 50 obese non diabetic and 50 non obese non diabetic women residing in Tirupathi were selected and were subjected to Blood pressure measurement, OGTT and Lipid profile. There was significant increase in the systolic blood pressure, FBS, PPBS, triglycerides and total cholesterol levels in obese non diabetic women compared to non obese non diabetic women(p<0.05). However there was significant decrease in HDL levels in obese women. Results suggests that obese non diabetic women had increased risk of developing metabolic disorders compared to non obese non diabetic women.
