Introduction: A public health problem is excess weight, and Puno is one of the five Peruvian departments with the highest increase in cases; in the highlands the geographical and socioeconomic conditions differ. A vulnerable group is university students exposed to obesogenic environments, so determining excess weight with other indices would contribute to the diagnostic criteria.
Objective: Identify the relationship between body mass index and abdominal perimeter, waist height index and taper index.
Compare the prevalence of excess weight.
Material and methods: Quantitative, observational, correlation and cross-sectional research. The population, students of the National University of the Altiplano, sample of 191 students in areas of engineering, biomedical and social sciences. They were evaluated anthropometrically, data on weight, height and abdominal perimeter were obtained, the presence of excess weight was determined with the body mass index, waist/height index and taper. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS version 25 software, Pearson and Spearman correlation tests were used, the prevalence of excess weight was determined according to sex and study area.
Results: A high correlation was observed between the body mass index with the abdominal perimeter and waist/height index and average strength with the conicity index, the levels of correlation are higher in men than in women. The prevalence of excess weight according to body mass index was 28% and according to waist/height index 38%, with a higher proportion in students of social sciences.
Conclusions: The correlation of the body mass index is strong with the waist/height index and abdominal perimeter, it is suggested to consider the use of these adiposity indicators together, since variability was observed in the prevalence of excess weight.
