背景:心肺功能是促进健康的关键健康指标之一。了解体重指数(BMI)与心肺功能之间的相关性可能有助于创建循证疗法,专注于解决与肥胖相关的困难。
目的:评估北边境大学医学生的BMI与心肺功能之间的相关性。
方法:对北边境大学的医学生进行了一项横断面研究,沙特阿拉伯。血压(BP),呼吸频率(RR),心率(HR),平均动脉压(MAP),脉压(PP),并测量了学生的BMI。
结果:学生的平均年龄为17.1±1.9岁。近40%的学生超重或肥胖。我们的研究揭示了BMI和BP之间的显著正相关,RR,潮气量(TV),地图。
结论:我们研究的相关性分析显示,BMI与BP呈显著正相关,RR,电视,地图。
BACKGROUND: Cardiorespiratory function is one of the key health indicators that promote good health. Knowing the correlation between body mass index (BMI) and cardiorespiratory functioning might assist in the creation of evidence-based therapies that focus on addressing difficulties associated with obesity.
OBJECTIVE: To assess the correlation between BMI and cardiorespiratory functions among medical students at Northern Border University.
METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted among medical students at Northern Border University, Saudi Arabia. The blood pressure (BP), respiratory rate (RR), heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), pulse pressure (PP), and BMI of the students were measured.
RESULTS: The mean age of the students was 17.1 ± 1.9 years. Nearly 40% of students were overweight or obese. Our study revealed a significant positive correlation between BMI and BP, RR, tidal volume (TV), and MAP.
CONCLUSIONS: The correlation analysis of our study revealed a significant positive correlation of BMI with BP, RR, TV, and MAP.
