目的：描述白令海峡地区成年阿拉斯加原住民的体脂含量和分布。设计：1994年春季的横断面筛选。对象：来自阿拉斯加四个乡村的454名未怀孕的原住民。测量：身高、体重、腰围、臀围和大腿围、生物电阻抗、矢状腹径、三头肌、二头肌、髂上肌、肩胛下和大腿皮褶。结果：男性的平均身高、体重和肩胛下肌与肱三头肌的比例均高于女性。这些女性的腰围、臀围和大腿围都比男性大，身体肥胖度也更高，皮肤褶皱也更大。男性和女性在测量身体脂肪分布方面没有明显差异。将低（< 25 kg/m2）、中（25-30 kg/m2）和高（> 30 kg/m2）体重指数（BMI）组中具有高腰臀比（女性≥ 0.8，男性≥ 0.9）的女性和男性比例与加拿大所有种族的研究进行比较。1在最低BMI亚组（< 25 kg/m2）中，爱斯基摩女性（91%）的腰臀比高于爱斯基摩男性（42%）或加拿大女性（29%）或男性（51%）。在BMI最高的亚组中（> 30 kg/m2）爱斯基摩女性的高腰臀比比例（99%）与爱斯基摩男性（100%）相似，但仍比加拿大男性（90%）或女性（76%）高腰臀比的受试者比例高得多。在爱斯基摩女性中发现的大腹部脂肪库与男性相似，这可能表明未来糖尿病和其他代谢改变的增加是可以预期的。
OBJECTIVE: To describe the body fat content and distribution of adult Alaska Natives of the Bering Straits Region.DESIGN: Cross-sectional screening in the spring of 1994.SUBJECTS: 454 non-pregnant native residents from four rural Alaskan villages.MEASUREMENTS: Height, weight, waist, hip and thigh circumference, bioelectrical impedance, sagittal abdominal diameter, and triceps, biceps, suprailiac, subscapular and thigh skinfolds.RESULTS: Mean height, weight and subscapular-to-triceps ratio were higher in men than women. The women had larger waist, hip and thigh circumferences, higher body fatness, as well as larger skinfolds than the men. There were no demonstrable differences between men and women in measures of body fat distribution. The proportions of women and men with high waist-to-hip ratio (≥ 0.8 for women,≥ 0.9 for men) for low (< 25 kg/m 2), medium (25–30 kg/m 2) and high (> 30 kg/m 2) body mass index (BMI) groups were compared with a Canadian study of all races. 1 In the lowest BMI subgroup (< 25 kg/m 2) a much higher proportion of Eskimo women exhibited a high waist-to-hip ratio (91%) than Eskimo men (42%) or Canadian women (29%) or men (51%). In the highest BMI subgroup (> 30 kg/m 2) Eskimo women were similar in proportion of high waist-to-hip ratio (99%) compared to Eskimo men (100%), but still demonstrated a much greater proportion of subjects with high waist-to-hip ratio than either Canadian men (90%) or women (76%).CONCLUSIONS: The large abdominal fat depots found in Eskimo women were similar to men, and may indicate that future increases in diabetes mellitus and other metabolic alterations can be anticipated.
