Association Between Body Mass Index, Blood Pressure, and Blood Glucose Levels with Gender among Faculty of Sports Science and Recreation Staff at UiTM

High body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, and glucose levels lead to many diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study aimed to compare BMI on blood pressure and glucose levels among genders of the Faculty of Sports Science and Recreation (FSR), UiTM Shah Alam staff. The study involved 26 males, and 19 females aged between 24 and 60 years old who then participated in the health screening processes. Then the data was analyzed by using SPSS version 29. The significant level for male, and female BMI and systolic blood pressure is smaller than the p-value (p<0.05) indicating significance between BMI and systolic blood pressure (SBP) against male and female staff in FSR with a weak positive correlation. Meanwhile, the p-value for male and female BMI and blood glucose level is higher than 0.05 indicating no significance between BMI and blood glucose level against either male or female staff in FSR. The correlation of male BMI is a very weak negative correlation indicating an inversely proportional relationship between BMI and blood glucose level among the male staff. The study reveals that the association between BMI and blood pressure among male and female FSR employees is substantial, with a slight positive correlation. However, there is no significant relation between BMI and blood glucose levels among male and female FSR staff, with a mild negative correlation for males and a weak positive correlation for females.
