English Abstract
Objective: To evaluate whether serum concentration of cortisol in some healthy adult's men influenced by their characteristics of anthropometric measurements.
Subjects and Method: Ninety-eight volunteer adult's men non-smoking (20-50) years in this study, the blood samples were taken from subjects at the morning during 8:30-10:30 am during November 2015 till April 2016.
ELIZA kit was used to assay the serum level of cortisol hormone, and the anthropometric measurements have been done such as; body weight, height and waist circumference(WC) to calculated body mass index (BMI), and percentage of body fat (BF%) by a special formula and the subjects were assorted depending on classes of anthropometric (physical) measurements.
Results: cortisol level showed a significant decrease (p<0.05) in obese and overweight as compared with normal weight group in accordance with classes of BMI categories as well there was a significant decrease in obese group as compared with other group according to body fat percentage classification, also seen significant decrease of cortisol level in group with large waist circumference ≥ 90 as compared with small waist circumference group.
In addition, it was noticed that was a significant negative correlation between that tested hormone with anthropometric measurements Conclusion: Class of obesity was the key factor in deciding of tested hormone concentration and the state of correlation between hormone level and anthropometric values.
