Body composition and dyslipidemia in postmenopausal medical workers: a cross-sectional study

FYFangfang YaoJNJingwen NiuYZYingbin Zheng

Key Points

  • The research aims to explore the relationships between body composition and dyslipidemia in postmenopausal medical workers.
  • Conducted a cross-sectional study on postmenopausal medical workers
  • Measured skeletal muscle mass index, body fat percentage, visceral fat area, minerals, and total body water
  • Analyzed correlations between body composition factors and dyslipidemia indicators
  • Body composition factors are strongly correlated with dyslipidemia
  • Higher skeletal muscle mass index and lower body fat percentage relate to better lipid profiles
  • Body composition assessments could aid in early dyslipidemia screening for at-risk individuals

Abstract

Skeletal muscle mass index, body fat percentage visceral fat area, minerals, and total body water are strongly correlated with dyslipidemia and can serve as predictors. Our study indicates that body composition is closely related to dyslipidemia. Accordingly, body composition assessment can be introduced in health check-ups for early screening, and interventions involving exercise and diet can be implemented for at-risk populations, providing comprehensive support for the prevention and control of dyslipidemia.
