Anthropometric measures of adiposity as correlates of atherogenic index of plasma in non-obese sedentary Nigerian males

The increase in cardiovascular events has necessitated the identification of possible predictors that can help in predicting atherogenicity. The study sought to identify the anthropometric measures of adiposity that are associated with atherogenic risk in sedentary, non-obese, young male adults. A c...

description The increase in cardiovascular events has necessitated the identification of possible predictors that can help in predicting atherogenicity. The study sought to identify the anthropometric measures of adiposity that are associated with atherogenic risk in sedentary, non-obese, young male adults. A cross-sectional design was used to recruit a purposive sample of 414 sedentary males in a university campus. Anthropometric measures of adiposity, lipid parameters, and atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) were assessed. Pearson correlation and stepwise multiple regression were used to analyze the data collected. Alpha level was set at p
