- W3141061524 abstract "Obesity is emerging as a serious health problem in the majority of the developing countries. Even in rural areas the problem is spreading in an uncontrolled way. To study the prevalence a simple anthropometric survey was conducted among a rural population in randomly selected backward villages of Dindigul District, Tamil Nadu. A total of 270 individuals (107 males and 163 non-pregnant females) over the age of 18 years were examined to ascertain the prevalence of the problem. A community based randomized sample of 270 respondents were measured for height, weight, waist circumference and hip circumference. The body mass index (BMI) and waist to hip ratio (WHR) were computed from the collected data. The cut off level of waist circumference for male and female was fixed as 89cm and 79cm respectively, above which is said to be at risk. Waist-hip ratio cut off level for male was fixed as 0.95 and for female it was 0.8, above which is said to be at risk. It was concluded that obesity is a growing problem even in rural population. Having higher body mass index, waist circumference and waist-hip ratio, the females are more vulnerable to non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and cardio vascular diseases than that of male." @default.
