This study investigated the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) in a German population with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) using the three definitions for MetS according to WHO 1999, AHA/NHLBI 2005, and IDF 2005 criteria. Four-thousand and twenty participants as a cross section of daily practice of diabetes care in Germany (238 unselected sites) were included in the Diabetes in Germany (DIG) study. Inclusion criteria: T2DM and age between 35-80 years. Exclusion criteria: major cardiovascular event < 3 months before entry, NYHA-IV, macroproteinuria, and cancer < 5 years before entry. The components of MetS were measured following a standard protocol for anthropometric and laboratory control. The average diabetes duration was 8.4 years and HbA (1C) 7.0%. The prevalence of MetS by WHO criteria was 26.1%, by AHA/NHLBI 79.3%, and by IDF 82.6%. The degree of agreement (kappa statistic) was kappa = 0.69 between AHA/NHLBI and IDF definitions, but only 0.12 for WHO VS. IDF, and 0.17 for WHO vs. AHA/NHLBI. The frequency of central obesity by WHO was 50.9%, by AHA/NHLBI 72.9%, and by IDF 92.0% and for hypertension 29.3%, 92.6%, and 92.6%, respectively. However, the frequencies of lipid components by the three definitions were in the same range (57.8%, 59.5%, 59.5%). In this representative German sample of patients with type 2 diabetes, the prevalence of MetS was very highly independent of using the IDF or AHA/NHLBI definition. Females were significantly more affected than males. The distinctly lower prevalence delineated from WHO criteria is due to low frequency of central obesity and hypertension as consequence of higher cutoff limits for these components used in the WHO definition. 相似文献

Aims
We examined, in a country of the African region, i) the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) according to three definitions (ATP, WHO and IDF); ii) the distribution of the MetS criteria; iii) the level of agreement between these three definitions and iv) we also examined these issues upon exclusion of people with diabetes.Methods
We conducted an examination survey on a sample representative of the general population aged 25–64 years in the Seychelles (Indian Ocean, African region), attended by 1255 participants (participation rate of 80.3%).Results
The prevalence of MetS increased markedly with age. According to the ATP, WHO and IDF definitions, the prevalence of MetS was, respectively, 24.0%, 25.0%, 25.1% in men and 32.2%, 24.6%, 35.4% in women. Approximately 80% of participants with diabetes also had MetS and the prevalence of MetS was approximately 7% lower upon exclusion of diabetic individuals. High blood pressure and adiposity were the criteria found most frequently among MetS holders irrespective of the MetS definitions. Among people with MetS based on any of the three definitions, 78% met both ATP and IDF criteria, 67% both WHO and IDF criteria, 54% both WHO and ATP criteria and only 37% met all three definitions.Conclusion
We identified a high prevalence of MetS in this population in epidemiological transition. The prevalence of MetS decreased by approximately 32% upon exclusion of persons with diabetes. Because of limited agreement between the MetS definitions, the fairly similar proportions of MetS based on any of the three MetS definitions classified, to a substantial extent, different subjects as having MetS. 相似文献3.

ObjectivesWe estimated the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and compared associations of different MetS definitions with coronary heart disease (CHD), stroke, and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in a rural Chinese population.MethodsAmong 4,748 residents (2,145 men and 2,603 women) aged 30+ years in rural China from 2006 to 2007, the prevalence of MetS was estimated by using five different definitions: modified World Health Organization (WHO), Chinese Diabetes Society (CDS), the updated National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III) for Asian-Americans, International Diabetes Federation (IDF), and Joint Interim Statement (JIS). Multivariable logistic regression analyses were implemented to estimate the association between MetS and the prevalence of CHD, stroke and PAD, respectively.ResultsPrevalence of MetS in men was 11.5% (WHO), 14.8% (CDS), 32.4% (NCEP-ATP III), 27.5% (IDF) and 39.7% (JIS) and in women was 15.7% (WHO), 20.7% (CDS), 54.2% (NCEP-ATP III), 51.5% (IDF) and 54.2% (JIS), respectively. Respective ORs (95% CI) for associating MetS with CHD in men were 1.79 (1.02-3.17), 1.25 (0.69-2.26), 1.61 (1.01-2.58), 1.84 (1.14-2.96), and 1.53 (0.96-2.43). Corresponding ORs (95% CI) for stroke in men were 2.18 (95% CI 1.20 to 3.97), 2.20 (95% CI 1.25 to 3.89), 1.71 (95% CI 1.02 to 2.84), 1.30 (95% CI 0.77 to 2.23), and 1.61 (95% CI 0.97 to 2.68), respectively. In women, CHD and stroke were significantly associated with MetS using all five definitions of MetS. In addition, PAD was associated with all five MetS definitions in men, but not in women. Only hyperglycemia and BMI were significantly associated with PAD in women.ConclusionsIn this rural Chinese population, the JIS, IDF and CDS criteria may not be more suitable than WHO and updated NCEP-ATPIII definitions for screening high-risk individuals and estimating the risk of CHD and stroke from MetS, especially in men. 相似文献

BackgroundDiabetes may be associated with decreased prostate cancer (PCa) risk. However, previous studies have not always accounted for time since diabetes diagnosis or antidiabetic drug use. Futhermore, the role of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in PCa risk is still debated. We investigated the role of diabetes and MetS in PCa risk based on data from the Epidemiological study of PCa (EPICAP).MethodsEPICAP is a population-based case-control study that included 819 incident PCa cases in 2012–2013 and 879 controls frequency matched by age. MetS was characterized according to National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III). Logistic regression models adjusted for age, family history of PCa and ethnicity, were used to assess odds ratios (ORs) and their 95%conficence intervals (CIs) for the associations between diabetes, MetS and PCa risk.ResultsWhereas we did not observed an association between diabetes and PCa, a decreased risk of PCa has been highlighted with an increasing treated diabetes duration (p-trend=0.008). No association has been observed between MetS, the number of MetS criteria and the risk of PCa. However, we suggested that NSAIDs use could modify the association between MetS and PCa risk.ConclusionOur results suggest an inverse association between the duration of diabetes and PCa risk. The role of metabolic factors, such as MetS and its components, in PCa risk remains unclear and requires further investigations. 相似文献

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between mortality and metabolic syndrome using the America Heart Association/National Heart Lung Blood Institute (AHA/NHLBI) and International Diabetes Federation (IDF) definitions in a Taiwanese cohort. Methods and Procedures: A total of 124,513 participants, aged 20–94 years, from four nationwide health centers in Taiwan were recruited from 1998 to 1999. Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were used to estimate the relative risks (RRs) for all‐cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality for those with metabolic syndrome compared to those without metabolic syndrome over 8 years of follow‐up. Results: The baseline prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 22.4% by the AHA/NHLBI and 13.9% by the IDF definition. A total of 2,762 deaths (527 CVD) occurred. Using the AHA/NHLBI definition, the RRs (95% confidence intervals) of all‐cause and CVD mortality were 1.21 (1.09–1.34) and 1.77 (1.40–2.24), respectively, in men and 1.30 (1.12–1.49) and 1.69 (1.19–2.42), respectively, in women. The association between metabolic syndrome and mortality was attenuated when using the IDF definition. Excluding subjects with diabetes or CVD at baseline, the RRs for CVD mortality still remained significant using the two definitions. Discussion: Metabolic syndrome, using either the AHA/NHLBI or IDF definitions, is a common disorder in Taiwanese adults and is similarly associated with an increase in all‐cause and CVD mortality as found in Western populations. Our study suggests that Asians with metabolic syndrome are also at higher risk for death. 相似文献

Objective
To investigate the influence of age and gender on the prevalence and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in Europeans presenting with the Metabolic Syndrome (MetS).Methods
Using 36 cohorts from the MORGAM-Project with baseline between 1982–1997, 69094 men and women aged 19–78 years, without known CVD, were included. During 12.2 years of follow-up, 3.7%/2.1% of men/women died due to CVD. The corresponding percentages for fatal and nonfatal coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke were 8.3/3.8 and 3.1/2.5.Results
The prevalence of MetS, according to modified definitions of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and the revised National Cholesterol Education Program-Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATPIII), increased across age groups for both genders (P<0.0001); with a 5-fold increase in women from ages 19–39 years to 60–78 years (7.4%/7.6% to 35.4%/37.6% for IDF/NCEP-ATPIII) and a 2-fold increase in men (5.3%/10.5% to 11.5%/21.8%). Using multivariate-adjusted Cox regressions, the associations between MetS and all three CVD events were significant (P<0.0001). For IDF/NCEP-ATPIII in men and women, hazard ratio (HR) for CHD was 1.60/1.62 and 1.93/2.03, for CVD mortality 1.73/1.65 and 1.77/2.06, and for stroke 1.51/1.53 and 1.58/1.77. Whereas in men the HRs for CVD events were independent of age (MetS*age, P>0.05), in women the HRs for CHD declined with age (HRs 3.23/3.98 to 1.55/1.56; MetS*age, P = 0.01/P = 0.001 for IDF/NCEP-ATPIII) while the HRs for stroke tended to increase (HRs 1.31/1.25 to 1.55/1.83; MetS*age, P>0.05).Conclusion
In Europeans, both age and gender influenced the prevalence of MetS and its prognostic significance. The present results emphasise the importance of being critical of MetS in its current form as a marker of CVD especially in women, and advocate for a redefinition of MetS taking into account age especially in women. 相似文献7.
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a common phenotype, affecting about 24 % of the US population. It is associated with an increased risk for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Although there is no universally accepted definition for MetS, affected individuals commonly have a cluster of features, including abdominal obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and dysglycemia. Recently, there has been extensive interest in potential genetic contributions to MetS. At present, no single gene or cluster of genes has been consistently replicated for MetS among different populations, likely due to the complex interplay between gene and environment necessary for expression of this phenotype. We review recent studies regarding the genetic contributions to MetS. 相似文献

Introduction
Prospective studies have consistently suggested that nut consumption is inversely related to fatal and non-fatal coronary heart disease. Limited data are available on the epidemiological associations between nut intake and cardiometabolic risk factors.Objective
To evaluate associations between frequency of nut consumption and prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors [obesity, metabolic syndrome (MetS), type-2 diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia] in a Mediterranean population at high cardiovascular risk.Materials and Methods
Cross-sectional study of 7,210 men and women (mean age, 67 y) recruited into the PREDIMED study. MetS was defined by the harmonized ATPIII and IDF criteria. Diabetes and hypertension were assessed by clinical diagnosis and dyslipidemia (high triglycerides, low HDL-cholesterol, and hypercholesterolemia) by lipid analyses. Nut consumption was assessed using a validated food frequency questionnaire and categorized as <1, 1–3, and >3 servings/wk. Control of confounding was done with multivariate logistic regression.Results
Compared to participants consuming <1 serving/wk of nuts, those consuming >3 servings/wk had lower adjusted odds ratios (OR) for obesity (0.61, 95% confidence interval 0.54 to 0.68; P-trend <0.001), MetS (0.74, 0.65 to 0.85; P-trend<0.001), and diabetes (0.87, 0.78 to 0.99; P-trend = 0.043). Higher nut consumption was also associated with lower risk of the abdominal obesity MetS criterion (OR 0.68, 0.60 to 0.79; P-trend<0.001). No significant associations were observed for the MetS components high blood pressure, dyslipidemia, or elevated fasting glucose.Conclusions
Nut consumption was inversely associated with the prevalence of general obesity, central obesity, MetS, and diabetes in subjects at high cardiovascular risk. 相似文献9.
Recent genome-wide association studies have showed that common variant (rs9939609) in fat mass and obesity associated (FTO) gene was significantly associated with type 2 diabetes through an effect on human body mass index/obesity. Further studies
have suggested that this variant was also involved in the development of metabolic syndrome (MetS). However, the results have
been inconsistent. In this study, we performed a meta-analysis to clarify the association between rs9939609 polymorphism and
the risk of MetS. Published literature from PubMed, EMBASE and other databases were searched. All studies assessing the association
between rs9939609 polymorphism and the risk of MetS were identified. Pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI)
was calculated using fixed-effects model. Thirteen studies (8,370 cases and 23,156 controls) using NCEP ATPIII criteria for
MetS were pooled with a meta-analysis. The overall result showed that there was a statistically significant association between
rs9939609 polymorphism and MetS risk (OR = 1.11, 95% CI = 1.06–1.17). Subgroup analysis based on ethnicity showed that effect
size was only statistically significant in Europeans (OR = 1.11, 95% CI = 1.05–1.16). Eight studies (1,256 cases and 2,551
controls) using IDF criteria for MetS were pooled with a meta-analysis. The overall analysis suggested that rs9939609 polymorphism
was significantly associated with MetS risk (OR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.13–1.54). Subgroup analysis stratified by ethnicity suggested
that effect size was only statistically significant in Asians (OR = 1.33, 95% CI = 1.10–1.61). Our results suggested that
FTO rs9939609 polymorphism was significantly associated with the increased risk of MetS in European and Asian populations. Mechanistic
investigation is also needed to clarify the effect of FTO gene in the predisposition to MetS. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Tobago and Trinidad are two Caribbean islands with distinct genetic background and lifestyles; while Tobago is serene and a tourist centre, Trinidad is characterized by a hustling and bustling lifestyle. The study was aimed at determining and comparing the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its critical components in type 2 diabetic patients using the new International Diabetes Federation (IDF) definition. METHODS: Four hundred and thirteen (166 Tobago, 247 Trinidad) type 2 diabetic patients visiting 10 lifestyle disease clinics were studied. Blood pressure, anthropometric parameters (height, weight, body mass index and waist circumference) and overnight fasting blood samples were taken. Plasma glucose and serum triglycerides, total cholesterol, LDL- and HDL-cholesterol, insulin, and adiponectin were determined. Insulin resistance (IR) was determined using the HOMA method. RESULTS: The patients in Tobago were significantly older than patients in Trinidad (p < 0.001) but the duration of diabetes (9.4 +/- 0.5 vs. 11.1 +/- 0.7 yr), medications, generalized (31.7 vs. 38.8%) and central (78.5 vs. 83.7%) obesity were similar (p > 0.05). In comparison with patients in Tobago, diabetic patients in Trinidad, irrespective of gender, had significantly higher prevalence of IDF critical components such as raised BP, raised triglycerides and reduced HDL-cholesterol (all, p < 0.001). Thus, while more patients in Trinidad were diagnosed with MetS based on three or four components, more patients in Tobago were diagnosed based on two components (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: There were high prevalence rates of the components of the MetS in both the islands of Tobago and Trinidad. Quantitatively, the aggregation of the components is higher in patients in Trinidad, which constitute greater risk for adverse cardiovascular outcome. Controlling central obesity should be the target in preventing MetS in the two islands. 相似文献

The Metabolic syndrome (MetS), obesity and type 2 diabetes are growing global epidemics especially in Asian populations. In light of the differences in body build between people from the West and the East, definitions of obesity in Asians have been modified accordingly. Data from Hong Kong, an epitome of future China, may provide important insight into the potential interactions between nature and nurture in this global epidemic. Now supported by large scale studies, it is clear that Chinese type 2 diabetic patients exhibit marked phenotypic heterogeneity in terms of risk profiles and complications. Apart from genetic differences, age- and stress-related neurohormonal dysregulation may also contribute to the increasing prevalence of obesity, type 2 diabetes and MetS in Chinese living in modern societies. In this mini-review, we aim to summarise findings from our group collected during the last decade in our attempt to understand this epidemic and to develop evidence-based care models to reduce the impact of this health hazard. 相似文献

Objective: To compare the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) defined according to the American Heart Association (AHA)/National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and to determine the effect of the presence of central obesity on the phenotype (insulin resistance and other cardiovascular risk factors) associated with MS. Research Methods and Procedures: We studied 4723 Chinese, Malays, and Asian Indians living in Singapore. Each individual was categorized according to the five criteria for MS as defined by the AHA/NHLBI and the IDF. The population was categorized according to the presence of three or more criteria and then further subcategorized according to the presence or absence of central obesity. Characteristics of each group were compared using ANOVA and the χ2 test. Results: MS was present in 20.2% (IDF) and 26.9% (AHA/NHLBI) of the population. Of the population, 6.7% exhibited three or more features of MS without central obesity. Use of the IDF definition, which requires central obesity, is associated with greater insulin resistance but similar levels of other cardiovascular disease risk factors than the use of the AHA/NHLBI definition, which does not require central obesity. Discussion: In this Southeast Asian population, the IDF and the AHA/NHLBI definitions of MS identify different segments of the MS population. The IDF definition may be more appropriate for the identification of those with insulin resistance and increased risk of type 2 diabetes. In contrast, the AHA/NHLBI definition may better identify those at increased risk of cardiovascular disease. 相似文献

Air pollutants (AP) play a role in subclinical inflammation, and are associated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is inflammatory and precedes cardiovascular morbidity and type 2 diabetes. Thus, a positive association between AP and MetS may be hypothesized. We explored this association, (taking into account, pathway-specific MetS definitions), and its potential modifiers in Swiss adults. We studied 3769 participants of the Swiss Cohort Study on Air Pollution and Lung and Heart Diseases in Adults, reporting at least four-hour fasting time before venepuncture. AP exposures were 10-year mean residential PM10 (particulate matter <10μm in diameter) and NO2 (nitrogen dioxide). Outcomes included MetS defined by World Health Organization (MetS-W), International Diabetes Federation (MetS-I) and Adult Treatment Panel-III (MetS-A) using four- and eight-hour fasting time limits. We also explored associations with individual components of MetS. We applied mixed logistic regression models to explore these associations. The prevalence of MetS-W, MetS-I and MetS-A were 10%, 22% and 18% respectively. Odds of MetS-W, MetS-I and MetS-A increased by 72% (51-102%), 31% (11-54%) and 18% (4-34%) per 10μg/m3 increase in 10-year mean PM10. We observed weaker associations with NO2. Associations were stronger among physically-active, ever-smokers and non-diabetic participants especially with PM10 (p<0.05). Associations remained robust across various sensitivity analyses including ten imputations of missing observations and exclusion of diabetes cases. The observed associations between AP exposure and MetS were sensitive to MetS definitions. Regarding the MetS components, we observed strongest associations with impaired fasting glycemia, and positive but weaker associations with hypertension and waist-circumference-based obesity. Cardio-metabolic effects of AP may be majorly driven by impairment of glucose homeostasis, and to a less-strong extent, visceral adiposity. Well-designed prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings. 相似文献

Background
Given the increasing worldwide incidence of diabetes, methods to assess diabetes risk which would identify those at highest risk are needed. We compared two risk-stratification approaches for incident type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); factors of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and a previously developed diabetes risk score, PreDx® Diabetes Risk Score (DRS). DRS assesses 5 yr risk of incident T2DM based on the measurement of 7 biomarkers in fasting blood.Methodology/Principal Findings
DRS was evaluated in baseline serum samples from 4,128 non-diabetic subjects in the Inter99 cohort (Danes aged 30–60) for whom diabetes outcomes at 5 years were known. Subjects were classified as having MetS based on the presence of at least 3 MetS risk factors in baseline clinical data. The sensitivity and false positive rate for predicting diabetes using MetS was compared to DRS. When the sensitivity was fixed to match MetS, DRS had a significantly lower false positive rate. Similarly, when the false positive rate was fixed to match MetS, DRS had a significantly higher specificity. In further analyses, subjects were classified by presence of 0–2, 3 or 4–5 risk factors with matching proportions of subjects distributed among three DRS groups. Comparison between the two risk stratification schemes, MetS risk factors and DRS, were evaluated using Net Reclassification Improvement (NRI). Comparing risk stratification by DRS to MetS factors in the total population, the NRI was 0.146 (p = 0.008) demonstrating DRS provides significantly improved stratification. Additionally, the relative risk of T2DM differed by 15 fold between the low and high DRS risk groups, but only 8-fold between the low and high risk MetS groups.Conclusions/Significance
DRS provides a more accurate assessment of risk for diabetes than MetS. This improved performance may allow clinicians to focus preventive strategies on those most in need of urgent intervention. 相似文献15.
The metabolic syndrome (MetS) represents an emerging health burden for governments and health care providers. Particularly relevant for prevention and early management of MetS are lifestyle conditions including physical activity and the diet. It has been shown that green tea, when consumed on a daily basis, supports health. Many of the beneficial effects of green tea are related to its catechin, particularly (−)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), content. There is conclusive evidence from in vitro and animal studies which provide the concepts for underlying functional mechanisms of green tea catechins and their biological actions. An increasing number of human studies have explored the effects of green tea catechins on the major MetS conditions such as obesity, type-2 diabetes and cardiovascular risk factors. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the human studies addressing the potential benefits of green tea catechins on the MetS.The number of human studies in this field is still limited. However, the majority of human epidemiological and intervention studies demonstrate beneficial effects of green tea or green tea extracts, rich in EGCG on weight management, glucose control and cardiovascular risk factors. The optimal dose has not yet been established.The current body of evidence in humans warrants further attention. In particular, well-controlled long-term human studies would help to fully understand the protective effects of green tea catechins on parameters related to the MetS. 相似文献

Background
Elevated baseline circulating alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level has been demonstrated to be associated with an increased risk of the metabolic syndrome (MetS), but the nature of the dose-response relationship is uncertain.Methods
We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of published prospective cohort studies to characterize in detail the nature of the dose-response relationship between baseline ALT level and risk of incident MetS in the general population. Relevant studies were identified in a literature search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Web of Science up to December 2013. Prospective studies in which investigators reported relative risks (RRs) of MetS for 3 or more categories of ALT levels were eligible. A potential nonlinear relationship between ALT levels and MetS was examined using restricted cubic splines.Results
Of the 489 studies reviewed, relevant data were available on 29,815 non-overlapping participants comprising 2,125 incident MetS events from five prospective cohort studies. There was evidence of a linear association (P for nonlinearity = 0.38) between ALT level and risk of MetS, characterised by a graded increase in MetS risk at ALT levels 6–40 U/L. The risk of MetS increased by 14% for every 5 U/L increment in circulating ALT level (95% CI: 12–17%). Evidence was lacking of heterogeneity and publication bias among the contributing studies.Conclusions
Baseline ALT level is associated with risk of the MetS in a linear dose-response manner. Studies are needed to determine whether the association represents a causal relationship. 相似文献17.
Serum γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT) is associated with oxidative stress and hepatic steatosis. The extent to which its value in determining incident cardiometabolic risk (coronary heart disease (CHD), metabolic syndrome (MetS), hypertension and type 2 diabetes) is independent of obesity needs to be further explored in ethnicities. After appropriate exclusions, a cohort of 1,667 adults of a general population (age 52 ±11 years) was evaluated prospectively at 4 year's follow-up using partly Cox proportional hazard regressions. GGT activity was measured kinetically, and values were log-transformed for analyses. MetS was identified by Adult Treatment Panel-III criteria modified for male abdominal obesity. Median (interquartile range) GGT activity was 24.9 (17.0; 35.05) U/l in men, 17.0 (12.3; 24.0) U/l in women. In linear regression analysis, while smoking status was not associated, (male) sex, sex-dependent age, alcohol usage, BMI, fasting triglycerides and C-reactive protein (CRP) were significant independent determinants of circulating GGT. Each 1-s.d. increment in (= 0.53 ln GGT) GGT activity significantly predicted in each sex incident hypertension (hazard ratio (HR) 1.20 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.10; 1.31)), and similarly MetS, after adjustment for age, alcohol usage, smoking status, BMI and menopause. Strongest independent association existed with diabetes (HR 1.3 (95% CI 1.1; 1.5)) whereas GGT activity tended to marginally predict CHD independent of total bilirubin but not of BMI. Higher serum total bilirubin levels were protective against CHD risk in women. We conclude that elevated serum GGT confers, additively to BMI, risk of hypertension, MetS, and type 2 diabetes but only mediates adiposity against CHD risk. 相似文献

Background
No meta-analysis is yet available for the risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS) following androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for men with prostate cancer. To summarize the evidence for the link between ADT and MetS or its components quantitatively with a meta-analysis including all studies published to date.Methods
PubMed and Embase were searched using predefined inclusion criteria to perform meta-analyses on the association between metabolic syndrome, hyperglycemia, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia or obesity and androgen deprivation therapy in patients with prostate cancer. Random effects methods were used to estimate pooled relative risks (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI).Results
A total of nine studies was included. There was a positive association between ADT and risk of MetS (RR: 1.75 (95% CI: 1.27–2.41)). Diabetes was the only MetS component present in more than 3 studies, and also showed an increased risk following ADT (RR: 1.36 (95% CI: 1.17–1.58)).Conclusion
This is the first quantitative summary addressing the potential risk of MetS following ADT in men with PCa. The positive RRs indicate that there is a need to further elucidate how type and duration of ADT affect these increased risks of MetS and diabetes as the number of men with PCa treated with ADT is increasing. 相似文献19.
