Abstract :

OBJECTIVE: 1.To study the level of HsCRP in different class of obese people without past history of Hypertension [HTn], Diabetes Mellitus [DM], Ischemic Heart Disease [IHD], Cereovascular Diseases[CVD]. 2. To study the correlation of HsCRP with Body Mass Index [BMI], Waist Circumference and S.High Density Lipoprotein [HDL] levels. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This study consisted 50 patients [pts], either admitted or attended Outdoor department at General Hospital,who had high BMI value and No past history of HTn, DM, IHD, CVD. All pts were subjected to routine investigations as well as HsCRP levels. The results were assessed in terms of BMI, Waist Hip Ratio, S.Lipids as well as HsCRP levels in obesity and their correlations. RESULT: 1. Out of 50 pts, 38% were male while 62% were female and maximum 80% in age group of 40-60 years. 2. Most cases with high HsCRP level is seen in obesity class II {48%} and class III {40%}. 3. BMI has a strong and positive relationship with HsCRP. 4. Waist circumference > 90 cm for male is associated with 34% high HsCRP level and Waist circumference > 80 cm for female is associated with 60% high HsCRP level. 5. S.HDL below 40mg/dl is associated with 60% of high HsCRP level
