Estimation of Some Biochemical Tests in the Serum of Obese Men with Normal Blood Pressure and High Blood Pressure

Abstract

Obesity is a medical word that refers to a state in which a person's body fat levels are excessively high. Obesity is linked to a variety of health issues in humans, like the emergence of hypertension. This study aimed to look at the blood glucose concentration, urea, creatinine, and lipid profile factors in obese and hypertension-overweight men's sera. The study included 75 people who were evenly divided into three groups: healthy controls, normotensive obese people, and hypertension-obese people. When comparing obese males to controls, there was a significant increase (P<0.01) in blood glucose, urea, creatinine, cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C) although only triglycerides (TGs) and VLDL-C were substantially different in hypertension obese versus normotensive obese. Compared to controls, Obese men had significantly lower levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). High levels of triglycerides (TGs) and Very Low-density Lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL) in hypertensive obese males show they play a role in hypertension problems.
