“…These findings also concur with the higher prevalences reported in the Mexicans and Hispanics in the USA 3337 38 The extreme high prevalences we observed in Hindustani are comparable with published figures in populations like Malaysia,2 Sri Lanka28 and India 39. The Masala Study shows that in South Asians only modestly increased BMI is already associated with high levels of total and regional adiposity 40.…”

BackgroundThe metabolic syndrome (MetS) indicates increased risk for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. We estimated the overall and ethnic-specific prevalence of MetS and explored the associations of risk factors with MetS among Amerindian, Creole, Hindustani, Javanese, Maroon and Mixed ethnic groups.MethodWe used the 2009 Joint Interim Statement (JIS) to define MetS in a subgroup of 2946 participants of the Suriname Health Study, a national survey designed according to the WHO Steps guidelines. The prevalences of MetS and its components were determined for all ethnicities. Hierarchical logistic regressions were used to determine the associations of ethnicity, sex, age, marital status, educational level, income status, employment, smoking status, residence, physical activity, fruit and vegetable intake with MetS.ResultsThe overall estimated prevalence of MetS was 39.2%. From MetS components, central obesity and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) had the highest prevalences. The prevalence of MetS was highest for the Hindustanis (52.7%) and lowest for Maroons (24.2%). The analyses showed that in the overall population sex (women: OR 1.4; 95% CI 1.2 to 1.6), age (OR 5.5 CI 4.3 to 7.2), education (OR 0.7 CI 0.6 to 0.9), living area (OR 0.6 CI 0.5 to 0.8), income (OR 0.7 CI 0.5 to 0.9) and marital status (OR 1.3 CI 1.1 to 1.6) were associated with MetS. Variations observed in the associations of the risk factors with MetS in the ethnic groups did not materially influence the associations of ethnicities with MetS.ConclusionsThe prevalence of MetS was high and varied widely among ethnicities. Overall, central obesity and low HDL-C contributed most to MetS. Further studies are needed to assess the prospective associations of risk factors with MetS in different ethnic groups.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of exercise with High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) and Moderate Intensity Training (MIT) on inflammatory profile of proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-6 on the subject of obesity.This research is used 39 wistar rats of male-sex obesity. Intervention training is given for 6 weeks with frequency 4 times per week, HIIT intensity (90-100% of base line capability), MIT (60-80% of base line capability) TNF-α and IL-6 levels are obtained from blood testing with using ELISA test. Data analysis using Anova test.The results of this study showed that there were differences in levels of TNF-α HIIT with control (P = 0.003), MIT with control (P = 0.001) and no difference between HIIT group and MIT (P = 0.945). There was a difference of IL-6 levels between HIIT and control (P = 0.000), HIIT with MIT (P = 0.002), no difference in MIT group with control (P = 0.747). Exercise with the method of HIIT and MIT for 6 weeks with a frequency of 4 times per week can not create levels of TNF-α on the subject of obesity are lower as compared with sedentary groups, even the levels of TNF-α group of HIIT and MIT were significantly higher compared with the sedentary group. As for the levels of IL-6, HIIT is more effective in influencing the low IL-6 compared to MIT.
