Abstract
The objective was to identify the relationship between the level of physical activity and the coronary risk of the administrative staff of the Universidad Nacional de Trujillo, 2022. Observational, relational and cross-sectional study. 111 administrative workers participated in the research to whom a survey was applied to determine their level of physical activity and height and weight were measured. In the lipidprofile assay, a fasting blood sample was taken. The IBM SPSS Statistics version 26 software was then used to calculate the mean, standard deviation, and 95% confidence intervals for the factors: BMI, total cholesterol, LDL, VLDL, and TC/HDL-cholesterol (Castelli index). Subsequently, Pearson's Chi-square analysis was performed. A sedentary lifestyle was mainly associated with twice the coronary risk (α< 0.05). The Castelli index is useful for the diagnosis of dyslipidemia and as a predictor of cardiovascular risk in patients with metabolic syndrome.
