在诺斯威克公园心脏研究中，对 2,948 名白人参与者的血压、血清胆固醇、血浆纤维蛋白原和凝血因子 VIIc 与四个部位（前臂、三头肌、肩胛上肌和肩胛下肌）皮褶厚度的关系进行了检查。单独考虑时，所有四种皮褶均与男性的四种心血管危险因素显着相关。在两个肢体皮褶中，前臂始终比三头肌与危险因素的相关性更强。前臂皮褶与危险因素之间的关联程度与两个躯干皮褶（肩胛上皮褶和肩胛下皮褶）相似。多元回归分析表明，当考虑到其他皮褶时，前臂皮褶与男性胆固醇和血压存在独立关联。两个躯干皮褶与危险因素的关联强度没有一致的差异。除收缩压外，男性心血管危险因素与皮褶厚度之间的关联在年轻时更强。对于女性来说，结果有些不同。两个躯干皮褶与四个危险因素的关联始终强于四肢皮褶。除血浆纤维蛋白原外，肱三头肌与危险因素的相关性比前臂皮褶的相关性更强。因此，皮下脂肪的分布与心血管危险因素的关联存在性别差异。
The relation of blood pressure, serum cholesterol, plasma fibrinogen, and coagulation factor VIIc with skinfold thickness at four sites (forearm, triceps, suprailiac, and subscapular) was examined in 2,948 white participants in the Northwick Park Heart Study. When considered separately, all four skinfolds were significantly associated with the four cardiovascular risk factors in males. Of the two limb skinfolds, forearm was consistently more strongly associated than triceps with the risk factors. The magnitude of the association between forearm skinfold and the risk factors was similar to that of the two trunk skinfolds, suprailiac and subscapular. Multiple regression analysis suggested an independent association of forearm skinfold with cholesterol and blood pressure in males when the other skinfolds were taken into account. There was no consistent difference in the strength of the associations of the two trunk skinfolds with the risk factors. With the exception of systolic blood pressure, the associations between the cardiovascular risk factors and skinfold thickness in males were stronger at younger ages. In the case of females the findings were somewhat different. The associations with the four risk factors were consistently stronger for the two trunk skinfolds than the limb skinfolds. Triceps was somewhat more strongly associated with the risk factors than forearm skinfold except for plasma fibrinogen. Thus there are sex differences in the association of the distribution of subcutaneous fat with cardiovascular risk factors.
