Lipid accumulation product is associated with blood glucose in female university students
The use of anthropometric indexes, to follow up cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors, has been the focus of several studies during the last years. The Lipid Accumulation Product (LAP) innovates in combining waist circumference (WC), an anthropometric parameter, with fasting triglycerides, a biochemical parameter: the. The LAP was proposed in 2005 by Kahn as a better index than the Body Mass Index (BMI) to predict cardiovascular risk. The few studies published do not present LAP in young female population. For this reason, our study analyzed the association between LAP and fasting glycemia in female university students. A significant positive correlation was found, confirming previous studies with different populations.
