Abstract

Background: One of the main risk factors for cardiovascular disease and the leading cause of death worldwide, including in Indonesia, is dyslipidemia. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between demographic characteristics and central obesity with dyslipidemia among adults in Indonesia. Methods: This study used national Basic Health Research data from 2018. Study design is cross sectional. This study was conducted in September 2024. The study population consisted of individuals aged 25–45 years in Indonesia. Initially, the sample size included 305,457 respondents, but after data cleaning, 12,796 respondents with complete data remained. The analysis was conducted univariately using frequency distribution and percentages, bivariately using chi-square tests, and multivariately using multiple logistic regression. Results: The results of bivariate analysis showed a significant relationship between age (p=0.000, OR=1.46), gender (p=0.000, OR=1.53), central obesity (p=0.000, OR=1.79) and dyslipidemia. There was no relationship between level of education and dyslipidemia (p=0.283). Central obesity showed the strongest association in multivariate analysis Conclusion: In conclusion, the variables associated with dyslipidemia are age, gender, and central obesity.  Central obesity emerged as the strongest predictor of dyslipidemia in the multivariate analysis. Management of central obesity such as dietary improvements and increased physical activity should be considered to decrease risk of dyslipidemia.
