Visceral obesity
Introduction
Introduction The new term "visceral obesity" is familiar to people. The so-called visceral obesity is mainly caused by metabolic problems, so the symptoms of visceral obesity can also be said to be "metabolic syndrome", which mainly refers to a series of complex diseases such as obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia. The state of living habits. "visceral obesity" is an excess of nutrients in the body. The clinical manifestations of "visceral obesity" are fatty liver, pancreatitis, heart disease, stroke and other diseases.
Cause
Cause
The enterohepatic circulation is a body fluid including bile, a body fluid circulation from the intestine to the liver. 95% of the bile is reabsorbed at the end of the ileum, back to the liver through the portal vein of the liver, and it is repeated 6-8 times a day. In this process, if the toxin or fat intake exceeds the decomposition capacity of bile, it will accumulate in the body, which is the cause of visceral obesity. A decrease in the function of the liver to regulate fat metabolism leads to weight gain. In addition, impaired liver function also reduces the synthesis of HDL (good cholesterol), causing LDL (bad cholesterol) to deposit in the body, leading to cardiovascular diseases such as arteriosclerosis, hypertension, and stroke.
Examine
an examination
If the first item is met in the following terms, or if two of the items in the second item to the fourth item are satisfied, then it is certain that the visceral obesity is suffering.
A visceral fatty obesity: the cross section of the abdomen, the area of visceral fat is more than 100 square centimeters. (Boys have a belly circumference of 85 cm or more, and girls have a circumference of more than 90 cm.) Two high blood sugars: The blood sugar level is above 110 mg/dL on an empty stomach.
Three hypertension; blood pressure above 130 mmHg during contraction, or blood pressure above 85 mmHg during dilation, or both cases.
Four hyperlipidemia symptoms: serum fat content above 150mg / dL, or serum HDL cholesterol value of less than 40mg / dL, or both conditions are consistent. If you have visceral fat obesity, the chance of having diabetes is 7-9 times higher than usual. And complicated with myocardial infarction, the probability of cerebral hemorrhage will be about 3 times higher than usual.
The so-called visceral fat fat is divided into subcutaneous fat and visceral fat, and the cause of visceral obesity is mainly visceral fat, that is, apple type obesity.
Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
Subcutaneous obesity
Features: Fat is mainly distributed in the subcutaneous tissue of the abdomen, buttocks and thighs.
Visceral obesity
Features: Fat is mainly distributed in the peritoneum in the abdominal cavity.
The visceral obesity obesity has a marked increase in blood cholesterol, and after glucose is administered, the rate of blood glucose decline is significantly slower than that of normal people. This type of obese person is more susceptible to hypertension, atherosclerosis and diabetes. If the first item is met in the following terms, or if two of the items in the second item to the fourth item are satisfied, then it is certain that the visceral obesity is suffering.
First, visceral fat obesity: the cross section of the abdomen, the area of visceral fat is more than 100 square centimeters. (The male's abdominal circumference is above 85 cm, and the female's abdominal circumference is above 90 cm)
Second, high blood sugar: fasting blood sugar content above 110mg / dL.
Third, high blood pressure; blood pressure is above 130mmHg during contraction, or blood pressure is higher than 85mmHg when dilated, or both cases are consistent.
Fourth, hyperlipidemia symptoms: serum fat content of 150mg / dL or more, or serum HDL cholesterol value of less than 40mg / dL, or both conditions are consistent.
If you have visceral fat obesity, the chance of having diabetes is 7-9 times higher than usual. And complicated with myocardial infarction, the probability of cerebral hemorrhage will be about 3 times higher than usual. The so-called visceral fat fat is divided into subcutaneous fat and visceral fat, and the cause of visceral obesity is mainly visceral fat, that is, apple type obesity.
