[Estimation of body fat in a diabetic population from a health area using the Clínica Universitaria de Navarra-Body Adiposity Estimator formula [CUN-BAE]].
To perform a descriptive analysis of a population diagnosed with DM2 in Alava, to correlate the CUN-BAE and BMI formulas and to analyse the use of GLP-1 analogue.
This is a descriptive, cross-sectional, retrospective and observational study. We included the type 2 diabetic population of Alava, over 18 years of age with BMI recorded in their clinical history in the last 2 years, the data were collected from the OBID database.
1,3705 patients were analysed, 56.4% men and 43.6% women. The mean age was 69.18 years. Mean BMI in men was 29.12 (SD 4.79) kg/m2 and in women 29.88 (SD 6) kg/m2. The CUN-BAE in men was 32.15 (SD 5.29) and in women 44.29 (SD 5.5).
41% of the population analysed by BMI would be considered obese, while with CUN-BAE 95.2% of men and 93.2% of women would be considered obese. Further studies are needed to make a more accurate estimation with CUN-BAE in other breeds.
