Abstract
Normal-weight but high-percentage trunk fat phenotype was characterized in a setting where adiposity is not associated with educational and socioeconomic status. Body size trajectory since birth, current body composition measured using whole-body dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, cardiometabolic traits, serum adipokines, and dietary intake were measured cross-sectionally in 251 normal weight Japanese female university students whose fasting triglyceride and homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) averaged 56 mg/dL and 1.2, respectively. They were grouped according to tertile of percentage trunk fat. Although HOMA-IR did not differ among three groups, high-percentage trunk fat was associated with higher triglyceride and apolipoprotein B, and lower HDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein A1. In multivariate logistic regression analyses, weight-adjusted skeletal muscle mass (OR: 0.13, 95% CI: 0.04–0.38, p < 0.001), weight gain from birth to age 12 years (OR: 1.214、95% CI: 1.008–1.463、p = 0.04), and cereal consumption (OR:1.008, 95% CI: 1.000–1.016, p = 0.04) were associated with high-percentage trunk fat independent of birthweight, HOMA-IR, adipose tissue-insulin resistance index (the product of fasting insulin and free fatty acid), triglyceride, HDL cholesterol, apolipoprotein A1 and B, leptin, adiponectin, blood pressure, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein. Early childhood growth, lower skeletal muscle mass, and higher cereal consumption may be associated with normal-weight but high-percentage trunk fat phenotype in Japanese female university students in this subanalysis study. Atherogenic profile of lipids and apolipoproteins may be directly related to abdominal fat accumulation.
