Поиск антропометрических параметров, позволяющих дифференцировать метаболически здоровый фенотип (МЗФ) и метаболически нездоровый фенотип (МНЗФ), у подростков – северных монголоидов.</p></sec><sec><title>Материалы и методы</title><p>Материалы и методы. Одноцентровое кросс-секционное исследование проведено в 02.2015–10.2016 гг. на территории Республики Бурятия и Иркутской области: антропометрическое обследование и определение уровня гликемии крови, анализ липидограммы, калипометрия и измерение обхватных параметров. Итого в исследование отобраны 227 детей: 137 мальчиков и 90 девочек. </p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. Сравнение антропометрических параметров и индексов в выборках мальчиков с метаболическими нарушениями показали статически значимые различия ОТ, ОБ, ОТ/ОБ, толщины подкожно-жировой клетчатки во всех измеряемых локациях и индекса округлости у мальчиков с избыточной массой тела. Аналогичный анализ у девочек изучаемых групп не выявил статистически значимых различий между девочками с МЗФ и МНЗФ. Наиболее информативными параметрами метаболически нездорового фенотипа у мальчиков-азиатов являются индекс висцерального ожирения (AUC = 0,92), SDS ИМТ (AUC = 0,73), толщины подкожно-жировой клетчатки возле пупка (AUC = 0,73) и на передней поверхности плеча (AUC = 0,74). Оптимальное значение отсечки SDSИМТдляпрогнозированияметаболическихнарушенийсоставляет 2,29 у.е.; толщины подкожно-жировой клетчатки возле пупка более 3,5 см и на передней поверхности плеча более 1,0 см. У девочек-северных монголоидов наибольшие площади под кривой для индекс висцерального ожирения (AUC = 0,84), окружности бедер (AUC = 0,7) и индекса конусности (AUC = 0,7).</p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p>Заключение. Индекс висцерального ожирения у подростков обоих полов является самым информативным показателем метаболических отклонений. Для мальчиков-северных азиатов SDS ИМТ – хороший показатель для верификации метаболически нездорового фенотипа, для девочек – окружность бедер и индекс конусности.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Introduction</title><p>Introduction.

To identify anthropometric parameters that differentiate between metabolically healthy phenotype (MHP) and metabolically unhealthy phenotype (MUHP) in adolescent northern mongoloid populations.</p></sec><sec><title>Materials and methods</title><p>Materials and methods. A single-center cross-sectional study conducted in 02.2015–10.2016 in the territory of the Republic of Buryatia and Irkutsk region: anthropometric examination and determination of blood glycemia level, lipidogram analysis, calipometry and measurement of girth parameters. In total 227 children were selected for the study: 137 boys and 90 girls.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results. All adolescents with metabolically unhealthy phenotype had abnormal HDL levels. Comparison of anthropometric parameters and indices in samples of boys with metabolicdisordersshowedstatisticallysignifi antdiff encesinWC,HC,WC/HC,subcutaneous fat thickness in all measured locations and roundness index in overweight boys. Comparative analysis of anthropometric parameters and indices in girls of the studied groups did not reveal statistically signifi ant diff ences between girls with MHP and MUHP. The most informative parameters of metabolically unhealthy phenotype in Asian boys are visceral obesity index (AUC = 0.92), SDS BMI (AUC = 0.73), abdominal subcutaneous fat thickness (AUC = 0.73) and on the anterior surface of the upper arm (AUC = 0.74). The optimal SDS BMI cutoff value for predicting metabolic disorders is 2.29 c.u; abdominal subcutaneous fat thickness more than 3.5 cm and on the anterior surface of the upper arm more than 1.0 cm Northern Mongoloid girls had the largest areas under the curve for visceral obesity index (AUC = 0.84), hip circumference (AUC = 0.7) and taper index (AUC = 0.7). </p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Conclusion. Visceral adiposity index in adolescents of both sexes is the most informative indicator of metabolic abnormalities. For North Asian boys SDS BMI is a good indicator for verification of metabolically unhealthy phenotype. For girls, hip circumference and taper index can used to screen metabolically unhealthy phenotype.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>антропометрия</kwd><kwd>детское ожирение</kwd><kwd>толщина кожной складки</kwd><kwd>фенотипы ожирения</kwd><kwd>индекс висцерального ожирения</kwd><kwd>этнические группы</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>anthropometry</kwd><kwd>childhood obesity</kwd><kwd>skinfold thickness</kwd><kwd>obesity phenotypes</kwd><kwd>visceral obesity index</kwd><kwd>ethnic grou</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">NCD Risk Factor Collaboration (NCD-RisC).
