Abstract
Obesity is an epidemic problem in the world and is present from an early age. The objective was to analyze the variability of excess weight, glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol, LDL and HDL in obese students. 276 school children, 9 to 16 years of municipal educational units of the Metropolitan District of Quito, cohort 2010-2011, whom blood measurement was performed after fasting for eight hours. The risk categorization was based on the American Diabetes Association and the National Cholesterol Education Program. Excess weight was calculated in kilograms, from the WHO reference for age and sex. The average adolescents showed greater excess weight unlike early adolescents and children (p <0.001). Glucose risk in 1.4%, triglycerides 24.7%, total cholesterol 8.4%, HDL and LDL 31.6% and 6.2% respectively was found. Significant positive correlation was found with triglycerides increased LDL (r = 14) and total cholesterol (r = 0.27), and decreased HDL (r=-0.29) fraction. Changes in biomarkers described should facilitate the strengthening of public policies for obesity prevention.References
