Overvekt og fedme blant voksne og eldre nordmenn (KAN1).
Show summary
INNLEDNING Overvekt og fedme representerer en alvorlig folkehelseutfordring for Verdens Helseorganisasjons (WHO) Europeiske region. WHO har klart gitt uttrykk for et økende behov for kartlegging for å illustrere dimensjonen av denne fedmeepidemien. Formålet med denne studien var å kartlegge forekomsten av overvekt og fedme uttrykt som kroppsmasseindeks (KMI), midjeomkrets og hudfoldsmålinger. METODER Totalt 904 (441 kvinner og 463 menn) nordmenn (20 ? 85 år, gjennomsnitt; 51,3 år, SD; ±14,8 år) ble tilfeldig utvalgt for å delta i det nasjonale KAN1prosjektets fase II. Kroppsvekt, høyde, midjeomkrets, hudfoldsmål og KMI ble målt. RESULTATER Gjennomsnittlig KMI var 25,8 ±3,9 kg/m2. Totalt 39,9 % (29,9 % kvinner og 49,5 % menn) ble karakterisert som overvektige i tillegg til 12,7 % som ble klassifisert som fete (13,4 % kvinner og 12,1 % menn). Mennene hadde en høyere gjennomsnittlig midjeomkrets (94,7 ± 10,3 cm) sammenliknet med kvinnene (85,2 ± 11,9 cm) (p=0,001). Totalt 66,3 % av kvinnene og 51,3 % av mennene hadde en økt risiko for vektrelaterte metabolske komplikasjoner (WRMC) basert på WHO sine grenseverdier for midjeomkrets. Av disse hadde 37,6 % av kvinnene og 24,3 % av mennene en kraftig økt risiko for WRMC. DISKUSJON Resultatene indikerer at den norske befolkningen har en høyere andel overvektige og fete enn tidligere antatt og at mer enn halvparten av den norske befolkningen har en økt risiko for WRMC. Flere menn enn kvinner er karakterisert som overvektige, mens flere kvinner har en økt og kraftig økt risiko for WRMC sammenliknet med menn.

OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY IN NORWEGIAN ADULTS AND ELDERLY.
Show summary
Introduction Overweight and obesity are one of the most serious public health challenges for the World Health Organization?s (WHO) European region today. The WHO clearly state that health assessment is needed in order to illustrate the dimensions of the obesity epidemic. Therefore, the aim of this work was to investigate the prevalence of overweight and obesity in a representative sample of adult and elderly Norwegians. Methods A total of 901 (441 female and 460 male) adult and elderly Norwegians (20 ? 85yr, mean; 51,3 yr, SD; ±14,8yr) were randomly enrolled as part of the Norwegian KAN project phase II; health related physical fitness assessment. Body weight, height, waist circumference (WC) and skinfold measurements from 3 sites were measured, and body mass index (BMI) values were calculated. Results Mean BMI was 25,8 kg/m2 (SD; ±3,9 kg/m2), where females displayed significantly lower BMI (25,3 kg/m2) values than males (26,3 kg/m2). A total of 40,1% (29,9% females and 49,8% males) were classified as overweight and 12,7% as obese (13,4% females, 12,0% males). A significant increase was found in mean BMI values with increasing 10 year age range groups (p=0,037 females, p=0,001 males). Mean WC was 90,1 cm (SD; ±12,1 cm,), where males had a significantly higher mean value (94,7 cm) compared to females (85,2 cm) (p=0,001). In both males and females a significant increase in WC was detected with increased age (p=0.001 and p= 0.003, respectively). A total of 66,1% of the females and 51,4% of the males were categorized as having an increased risk of weight related metabolic complications (WRMC) according to the WHO cut-off values for WC values, where 37,5% of the females and 24,3% of the males were at highly increased risk of WRMC. Females displayed a mean sum of skinfolds of 81,8 mm (SD; ±24,4 mm), and the males a mean of 70,5 mm (SD; ±25,5 mm). No significant change in skinfold measures was detected across age groups. Discussion As many as 61,8% and 43,3% of Norwegian males and females, respectively, are either overweight or obese. Both the average male and female WC are above the WHO cut-off values for increased risk of weight related metabolic complications (WRMC); ?94 cm for men and ?80 cm for women. As expected, the BMI and WC increase with increased age in both genders. Gender differences are also found, as males display higher values for both BMI and WC. Governmental measures should be initiated in order to address the situation.

Levels of inflammatory markers in a population-based sample of Norwegian children and adolescents.
Show summary
Background: Adipose tissue is more than a storage depot- it also serves as an endocrine organ that secrets inflammatory cytokines and growth factors. Prospective studies in adults have shown that low-grade inflammation may contribute to the development of insulin resistance, atherosclerosis, diabetes and cancer. Previous studies investigating inflammatory markers in children have been limited by small non-representative samples, and no Norwegian representative data exist. Representative data are needed to describe levels of inflammatory markers in a population. Aim: To describe the distribution of inflammatory markers among Norwegian children and adolescents. Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of data from 2299 Norwegian 9- and 15-year-olds participating in the study ?Physical activity among Norwegian children?. Inflammatory markers included C-reactive protein (CRP), leptin, adiponectin, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Skinfold thicknesses were taken by trained investigators. Results: After adjustment for sex and puberty the results showed that 9-year-olds had significantly higher levels of adiponectin (P<0.001), PAI-1 (P<0.001) and TNF-? (P<0.001) but lower levels of leptin (P<0.001) compared to 15-year-olds. A graded association of body composition with PAI-1 (P<0.001), leptin (P<0.001), adiponectin (P=0.004), HGF (P=0.04), and CRP (P<0.001) were observed across quartiles of sum of four skinfolds. In addition, a similar graded associations between physical fitness and PAI-1 (P<0.001), leptin (P<0.001), IL-6 (P=0.04), and CRP (P<0.001) were observed. Conclusions: In the current study, we provide reference values on selected inflammatory markers in a representative cohort of Norwegian children and adolescents. In addition, both body composition and physical fitness showed graded associations with several inflammatory markers.

Show summary
Kartlegging av fysisk aktivitet og stillesittende tid blant voksne og eldre (Kan3) er utført ved Norges idrettshøgskole i samarbeid med Folkehelseinstituttet. Formålet med Kan3 er å følge opp tidligere undersøkelser av voksne og eldre for å øke kunnskapen om status, trender og utviklingen av fysisk aktivitet i den norske befolkingen. Kan3 inngår som en del av det nasjonale kartleggingssystemet av fysisk aktivitet og fysisk form. De norske ungKan- og Kan-undersøkelsene er unike ved at fysisk aktivitet er målt objektivt ved hjelp av akselerometre i populasjonsbaserte utvalg ved flere tidspunkt. Dette gir mer nøyaktige estimater av befolkingens fysiske aktivitetsnivå enn ved spørreskjemabaserte undersøkelser. Slik kunnskap er nødvendig for å kunne iverksette tiltak for å
redusere stillesitting og øke det fysiske aktivitetsnivået.
