Korelasi Indeks Massa Tubuh (IMT) Terhadap Massa Lemak Viseral Dan Lemak Perifer Pada Mahasiswa
Obesity is a condition of abnormal excess fat storage that can disrupt health, such as metabolic disorders like diabetes, dyslipidemia, and heart diseases such as hypertension and heart failure. Obesity is determined by measuring BMI, which estimates body composition based on height and weight. Body composition can also be assessed through Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA), which calculates composition in the body such as body fat, subcutaneous fat, and visceral fat. The aim of this research is to determine the correlation between BMI and visceral fat as well as subcutaneous fat. This study is an analytical research with a cross-sectional design conducted from March to October 2021. The study population consisted of students from the Faculty of Medicine and the Faculty of Nursing, University of Riau, enrolled between 2018 and 2021, selected using consecutive sampling. Data collection involved interviews, anthropometric measurements, and assessments, followed by data analysis using SPSS. The research results indicate a depiction of fat distribution by gender, with higher visceral fat in males and higher subcutaneous fat in females. The research sample shows the highest distribution of visceral fat within the normal criteria, the highest distribution of subcutaneous fat within the very high criteria, and the most prevalent distribution in BMI within the obesity criteria and the least prevalent in underweight. The research results indicate a correlation; the higher the BMI value, the higher the visceral fat value, and vice versa, the lower the BMI value, the lower the visceral fat value. A similar correlation was also found between BMI and peripheral fat. The higher the BMI value, the higher the peripheral fat value, and vice versa, the lower the BMI value, the lower the peripheral fat value.
Keywords: Obesity, BMI, visceral fat, subcutaneous fat, BIA.
