Introduction. Obesity is considered a public health problem. Its presence at an early age implies an obligation to identify the onset of complications such as insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods. Observational, descriptive and transversal study. Participated 1206 teenage women. Obesity was defined with BMI values ≥95p according WHO. Serum levels of insulin, glucose and lipid profile were determined.

Results 25,1% (303) of the population was obese; 246 obese adolescents participated in the biochemical evaluation, 28,1% (69) of them presented RI. In the obese teenagers with and without IR, the average of the biochemical variables in the former were higher, these differences being statistically significant, except for HDL-C. Differences between the prevalence of dyslipidemias were significant except for HDL-C. The IR presented an OR of 10,9 (CI 5,4-26,6), 12,1 (CI 4,9-30,1), and 7,6 (CI 3-19,5) with hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia and high LDL-C. The PTG showed 3,3% intolerant and none diabetic. Conclusions: 28,1% (69) of obese adolescents presented RI; no study participant presented DM.Downloads
