Resumen

Introducción: La obesidad desempeña un papel fundamental en enfermedades crónicas como la enfermedad respiratoria obstructiva crónica (ERC). Se ha reportado que los pacientes con mayor obesidad tienen una mayor esperanza de vida que los pacientes con bajo peso. Sin embargo, esta paradoja de la obesidad se ha estudiado muy poco en la población india. Además, la interacción de la obesidad con el sexo es un factor importante, ya que la distribución de la grasa varía de forma diferente entre hombres y mujeres. Métodos: Estudio observacional hospitalario. Se registraron los parámetros antropométricos y las pruebas de función pulmonar de 951 pacientes con ERC. La relación y la asociación se estudiaron mediante correlación, regresión y MANOVA. Resultados: Se observó un efecto de interacción significativo entre el sexo y el IMC tanto para la CVF como para el VEF1, lo que indica que el impacto del IMC en la función pulmonar difiere según el sexo. Específicamente, los hombres con bajo peso presentaron valores de CVF y VEF1 desproporcionadamente más bajos en comparación con las mujeres. Esto sugiere una posible vulnerabilidad sinérgica de la función respiratoria en varones con bajo peso. Conclusión: En resumen, este estudio refuerza la influencia significativa del sexo en la función pulmonar y destaca el papel matizado del IMC, en particular en su interacción con el sexo. Estos hallazgos subrayan la importancia de la interpretación individualizada de las pruebas de función pulmonar (PFP) que tengan en cuenta las diferencias fisiológicas tanto antropométricas como basadas en el sexo. Se necesita más investigación para explorar los mecanismos subyacentes y las posibles implicaciones clínicas en diversas poblaciones.
