The purpose of this study was to investigated the relationship for the application and the usefulness of canonical correlation analysis in body composition between blood lipids·blood glucose in obese female college students. The subjects participated in this experiment voluntary for this study were 55 obese female college students. The body composition factor were FM(fat mass), FFM(free fat mass), BMI(body mass index), WHR(waist to hip ratio), %fat (per cent fat), SM(skeletal muscle) and VF(visceral fat area). The blood lipids(TC, TC, LDL-C, HDL-C) and blood glucose was measured by T60Ⅱ(Johnson & Johnson, USA) and CERA-CHEK(Model no, M400). For analysis, multiple and canonical correlation analysis were used by SAS(ver9.4). The body composition(FM, %fat, BMI, WHR, VF) of obese female college students were positively correlation(p<.001) with only TG and TC. Also, the body composition(BMI, WHR) of obese female college students were positively correlation(p<.05) with only LDL-C. The canonical correlation coefficient of between body composition and blood lipids ·blood glucose were 0.73(r). In the canonical correlation analysis, body composition(FM, WHR, BMI, VF) were important factor to body composition(independent variable). In particular FM was most was most important factor to body composition(independent variable). Also, body composition(FM, BMI, WHR) were important factor to body blood lipids·blood glucose(dependent variable). In particular FM was most was most important factor to blood lipids·blood glucose(dependent variable). In the canonical correlation analysis, blood lipids·blood glucose(TG, TC) were most important factor to blood lipids·blood glucose(dependent variable) and body composition(independent variable). We suggest that a regular exercise training might prevent of CAD(Cardiac Artery Disease) through low FM(Fat Mass) and TG(Triglyceride), TC(Total Cholesterol).
