Resumen

Las mediciones antropométricas son técnicas simples y efectivas para la evaluación de la
obesidad central o abdominal. Aunque se conoce que tienen un buen valor predictivo, no existe un consenso
sobre cuáles son mejores en el diagnóstico de Síndrome Metabólico (MetSyn), utilizando los criterios del
Panel de Tratamiento de Adultos III (ATP III). Las medidas antropométricas incluyen la circunferencia de
la cintura (WC), el índice cintura-cadera (WHR), el índice de la altura de la cintura (WHtR) y el índice
de masa corporal (IMC). En este estudio se evaluó la prevalencia de MetSyn y se comparó con índices
antropométricos para determinar el valor de predicción óptimo con sus respectivos puntos de corte para
el diagnóstico de MetSyn entre los miembros del ejército en ESFORSE, Ecuador. El estudio incluye 181
participantes (175 hombres y 6 mujeres), la edad promedio es de 37 ± 6 años, la prevalencia de MetSyn es
del 8%, con CC (p <.001), WHtR (p .009) y WHR (p .020) como variables estadísticamente significativas.
Analizamos el área bajo la curva (AUC) en una curva de Característica Operativa del Receptor (ROC),
con las medidas antropométricas. Por tanto, WC y WHtR representan el AUC más alto (WC: 0.77, IC del
95%: 0.69-0.86; WHtR: 0.70, IC del 95%: 0.59-0.82). Los valores de corte óptimos para predecir MetSyn
son 92 cm en WC, 0.52 en WHtR y 0.93 en WHR. Por lo tanto, los miembros del ejército tienen una baja
prevalencia de MetSyn, con WC como el mejor valor de predicción.
