The purpose of this study was to identified the actual state of sarcopenic obesity in women university students and analyzed the relation between sarcopenic obesity and risk factor of cardiovascular diseases, which suggested the following implications. 1. 52.48% of the women university students under the study had sarcopenia, which showed a higher tendency of sarcopenic obesity compared with a normal level of 44.68%. 2. In case of NG and SOG, the difference in body weight and BMI was not found. NG and OG had a significant difference in such cardiovascular risk factors as DBP, TG, HDL-C, Insulin, and baPWV(p<.05), and SOG showed a negative tendency in all the cardiovascular risk factors including SBP, DBP, TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C, Insulin, Glucose, and baPWV. 3. The obesity index such as body weight, BMI, and body fat percentage was negatively associated with the risk factor of cardiovascular diseases, and SOG with a normal BMI was highly associated with cardiovascular risk factors. In conclusion, the wide spread of looking in today’s society results in sarcopenic obesity of young women university students, and the comparative analysis on sarcopenic obesity and obesity suggests that the former has a significant association with cardiovascular risk factors, which leads to a higher cardiovascular risk level relative to obesity. Thus it is required to encourage women university students to participate in exercise programs and improve their life styles, which may contribute to maintaining a normal BMI and body fat percentage and consequently prevent cardiovascular disease.
