| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Normal BMI with higher body fat is so-called “kakure-himan” as the same meaning of normal weight obesity (NWO). In our study, body fat percentage (BFP) was measured using Impedance and DXA methods. Control group contains Normal BMI (18.5-24.9) with normal BFP (less than 20% in men and 25% in women). NWO group contains normal BMI with higher BFP (more than 20% in men and 25% in women). Obesity group contains Higher BMI (greater than 25.0) with higher BFP. Parameters associated with Met-S, lifestyle related diseases and arterial sclerosis were analyzed. NWO was recognized in 42% of men and in 60% of women, and percentages of the population were increased along to age. The serum levels of TG, FFA, UA, PWV were higher, while adiponectin was lower in NOW in contrst with control but some of that showed no difference between obesity group. These result suggest that kakure-himan, which could be a major risk for metabolic syndrome, lifestyle related diseases and arterial sclerosis.
