Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2024; 17:1727-1738. [PMID: 38645653 PMCID: PMC11032133 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s444084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2023] [Accepted: 04/01/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose Visceral fat accumulation can negatively affect uric acid metabolism in healthy adults. The hypertriglyceridemic-waist (HTGW) phenotype is a predictor of diabetes and cardiometabolic risk. This study aimed to investigate the association between the HTGW phenotype and asymptomatic hyperuricemia in Korean adults. Patients and Methods The study included 23,240 adults, aged 20-80 years who underwent comprehensive health examinations at a general hospital in Gyeonggi Province, Korea, from January 2020 to December 2022. The HTGW phenotype was defined as the simultaneous presence of elevated serum triglyceride (TG) levels and increased waist circumference (WC). The diagnostic capability of the HTGW phenotype for hyperuricemia and its association with the condition were assessed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and logistic regression analysis. Results The prevalence of hyperuricemia in the HTGW phenotype was 3.44 times higher than that in the normal TG normal waist (NTNW) phenotype. Compared with those in the NTNW group, the hazard ratios for developing hyperuricemia in the HTGW group were 2.887 (2.566-3.249, P <0.001) for men and 7.341 (5.139-10.487, P <0.001) for women, and these values remained significant after adjusting for potential confounders. The stratified analysis revealed that the HTGW phenotype, coupled with diabetes, had the highest probability of developing asymptomatic hyperuricemia (2.55 times). ROC curve analysis revealed that the area under the curve values of the WC*TG index for hyperuricemia diagnosis were 0.702, 0.627, and 0.685 for all participants, men, and women, respectively. Conclusion Among Korean adults, the HTGW phenotype was closely related to hyperuricemia in both men and women and showed a particularly strong association in patients with diabetes. It may be used in combination with an indicator that can complement its accuracy for identifying individuals at high risk of hyperuricemia.

Abstract
Obesity is a multifactorial chronic disease characterized by an excess of adipose tissue, affecting people of all ages. In the last 40 years, the incidence of overweight and obesity almost tripled worldwide. The accumulation of "visceral" adipose tissue increases with aging, leading to several cardio-metabolic consequences: from increased blood pressure to overt arterial hypertension, from insulin-resistance to overt type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), dyslipidemia, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and obstructive sleep apnea. The increasing use of innovative drugs, namely glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RA) and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2-i), is changing the management of obesity and its related cardiovascular complications significantly. These drugs, first considered only for T2DM treatment, are now used in overweight patients with visceral adiposity or obese patients, as obesity is no longer just a risk factor but a critical condition at the basis of common metabolic, cardiovascular, and renal diseases. An adipocentric vision and approach should become the cornerstone of visceral overweight and obesity integrated management and treatment, reducing and avoiding the onset of obesity-related multiple risk factors and their clinical complications. According to recent progress in basic and clinical research on adiposity, this narrative review aims to contribute to a novel clinical approach focusing on pathophysiological and therapeutic insights.

Abstract
Background: The hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTGW) phenotype is characterized by concomitant increases in waist circumference (WC) and blood triglyceride levels (TG), which have been identified as a predictor of metabolic disorders. This study aimed to analyze associations between food consumption, exercise, and the CD36 gene rs1761667 G>A polymorphism with the HTGW phenotype in adult Mexicans. Methods: This cross-sectional study included a total of 255 participants (both genders, between 18-64 years of age). The HTGW phenotype was defined as WC >88 cm in women, WC >102 cm in men, and TG >150 mg/dL. Body composition was analyzed by electrical bioimpedance. Dietary intakes (macro and micronutrients) were evaluated through a validated 64-item food frequency questionnaire and a 24-h recall. Physical exercise was subjectively recorded asking the participants if they regularly performed some systematic exercise or sport of moderate intensity at least 150-300 minutes a week. Biochemical tests were determined by an automated system. A Taqman real-time assay was used to detect the rs1761667 (G>A) polymorphism of the CD36 gene. A multivariate logistic regression model was performed to analyze the variables potentially associated with the HTGW phenotype (adjusted for age, energy intake, and total fat mass). Results: Overall, 21.6% of the population presented the HTGW phenotype; compared to the HTGW-, also, they were older, had more body fat, higher glucose, cholesterol and insulin levels, and high blood pressure. Female sex (OR=2.92, 95% CI: 1.12-7.60, p=0.028), body mass index (OR=1.19, 95% CI: 1.07-1.32, p=0.001), total cholesterol (OR=1.01, 95% CI:1.00-1.02, p=0.039), daily consumption of sugary drinks (OR=6.94, 95% CI: 1.80-26.8, p=0.005), and the CD36 AG genotype (OR=3.81, 95% CI: 1.08-13.4, p=0.037) were positively associated with the HTGW phenotype, while performing exercise played a protective role (OR=0.23, 95% CI: 0.08-0.62, p=0.004). Overall, the model predicted the HTGW phenotype in 47% (R2=0.47, p≤0.001). Conclusion: The CD36 AG genotype, daily consumption of sugary drinks and sedentarism are risk factors for the HTGW phenotype in Mexicans.

Hypertriglyceridaemic waist phenotype and waist circumference triglyceride index are associated with higher incidence of acute pancreatitis: a nationwide population-based retrospective cohort study. BMJ Open 2023; 13:e071213. [PMID: 37643853 PMCID: PMC10465893 DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2022-071213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 07/31/2023] [Indexed: 08/31/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The hypertriglyceridaemic waist (HTGW) phenotype, an indicator to assess metabolic syndrome, could be a useful predictive marker for the risk of acute pancreatitis. This study aimed to evaluate the association between the HTGW phenotype and the risk of acute pancreatitis with a nationwide population-based cohort. DESIGN A retrospective, nationwide cohort study. SETTING Registry of health check-up result from Korean National Health Insurance Service. PARTICIPANTS A total of 3 912 551 adults who underwent health checkups under the National Health Insurance Service in 2009 were enrolled in this study. INTERVENTIONS Subjects with both increased waist circumference (WC) and elevated blood triglyceride concentrations were defined as the HTGW phenotype. The participants were divided into four groups, classified as NWNT (normal WC-normal triglycerides), EWNT (elevated WC-normal triglycerides), NWET (normal WC-elevated triglycerides) and HTGW. The WC triglyceride index (WTI) is a quantitative indicator of the HTGW phenotype which is calculated by multiplying WC (cm) by triglyceride levels (mmol/L). PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURE The subjects were followed until 31 December 2018. The adjusted HRs of acute pancreatitis in each group were estimated. RESULTS During the follow-up, there were a total of 8933 of acute pancreatitis occurrences. The incidence of acute pancreatitis in all subjects was 0.278 per 1000 person-year. The HTGW group had the highest incidence (0.444), followed by the NWET (0.381), and EWNT (0.316) groups. The HTGW group had a significant higher incidence of acute pancreatitis than the NWNT groups (HR 1.364 (95% CI 1.279 to 1.454)). The risk of acute pancreatitis steadily increased as the WTI increased (HR 1.847 (95% CI 1.657 to 2.058) in 10th decile). CONCLUSIONS The HTGW phenotype is confirmed to be an independent risk factor that increases the risk of acute pancreatitis.

Serum triglyceride glucose index is a valuable predictor for visceral obesity in patients with type 2 diabetes: a cross-sectional study. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2023; 22:98. [PMID: 37120516 PMCID: PMC10148999 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-023-01834-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2023] [Accepted: 04/14/2023] [Indexed: 05/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Since the triglyceride glucose (TyG) index can reflect insulin resistance, it has been proven to be an efficient predictor of glycolipid-metabolism-related diseases. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the predictive value of the TyG index for visceral obesity (VO) and body fat distribution in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS Abdominal adipose tissue characteristics in patients with T2DM, including visceral adipose area (VAA), subcutaneous adipose area (SAA), VAA-to-SAA ratio (VSR), visceral adipose density (VAD), and subcutaneous adipose density (SAD), were obtained through analyses of computed tomography images at the lumbar 2/3 level. VO was diagnosed according to the VAA (> 142 cm2 for males and > 115 cm2 for females). Logistic regression was performed to identify independent factors of VO, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to compare the diagnostic performance according to the area under the ROC curve (AUC). RESULTS A total of 976 patients were included in this study. VO patients showed significantly higher TyG values than non-VO patients in males (9.74 vs. 8.88) and females (9.59 vs. 9.01). The TyG index showed significant positive correlations with VAA, SAA, and VSR and negative correlations with VAD and SAD. The TyG index was an independent factor for VO in both males (odds ratio [OR] = 2.997) and females (OR = 2.233). The TyG index ranked second to body mass index (BMI) for predicting VO in male (AUC = 0.770) and female patients (AUC = 0.720). Patients with higher BMI and TyG index values showed a significantly higher risk of VO than the other patients. TyG-BMI, the combination index of TyG and BMI, showed significantly higher predictive power than BMI for VO in male patients (AUC = 0.879 and 0.835, respectively) but showed no significance when compared with BMI in female patients (AUC = 0.865 and 0.835, respectively). CONCLUSIONS . TyG is a comprehensive indicator of adipose volume, density, and distribution in patients with T2DM and is a valuable predictor for VO in combination with anthropometric indices, such as BMI.

Hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype is associated with left ventricular hypertrophy in Chinese hypertension patients. J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich) 2023; 25:191-198. [PMID: 36591647 PMCID: PMC9903198 DOI: 10.1111/jch.14604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2022] [Revised: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 11/13/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), the most common target organ damage in patients with hypertension, is closely related to excessive visceral adipose tissue (VAT) accumulation in the body. The hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTHW) phenotype can act as a surrogate marker of excessive VAT. However, the relationship between the HTHW phenotype and LVH in patients with hypertension remains unknown. The present study aimed to investigate whether the HTHW phenotype is associated with LVH, using echocardiography in a cross-sectional study involving 4470 middle-aged and older Chinese patients with hypertension. Logistic regression analysis revealed that patients with the HTHW phenotype were 1.52-fold more likely to experience LVH than those with normal triglyceride levels and normal waist circumference. This association was independent of age, sex, and other potentially confounding factors. In the stratified analysis, a stronger correlation was found among women, people of at least 70 years of age, and people with hyperuricemia. These results suggest that distinguishing the HTHW phenotype in patients with hypertension could serve as a simple and effective screening strategy for identifying people with a higher risk of developing LVH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertriglyceridemic-waist (HTGW) phenotype has been proposed as a practical tool for screening the risk of cardiovascular diseases and glycemic metabolic disease. This study sought to investigate the relationship between HTGW phenotype and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). METHODS A total of 14,251 subjects who took part in health screening were enrolled in the study and NAFLD was diagnosed by abdominal ultrasound. According to triglyceride (TG) and waist circumference, the study population was divided into four phenotypes, in which HTGW phenotype was defined as TG ≥ 1.7 mmol/L and male waist circumference ≥ 90 cm or female waist circumference ≥ 80 cm. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between HTGW phenotype and NAFLD. RESULTS In the current study, 2.43% of the subjects had HTGW phenotype, while the prevalence of NAFLD in subjects with HTGW phenotype was 77.81%. After full adjustment for covariates, compared with people with normal waist circumference and TG levels, the risk of NAFLD in people with normal TG levels but enlarged waist circumference increased by 39% [OR:1.39, 95%CI: 1.15, 1.68], in people with normal waist circumference but elevated TG levels increased by 96% [OR:1.96, 95%CI: 1.65, 2.33], and in subjects with HTGW phenotype increased by 160% [OR:2.60, 95%CI: 1.88, 3.58]. Additionally, further analysis suggested that there were significant interactions between age, height, BMI and NAFLD risk associated with TGW phenotypes. Receiver operating characteristic curves analysis suggested that the combination of TG and waist circumference further improved the diagnostic value for NAFLD. CONCLUSIONS HTGW phenotype is associated with NAFLD risk in the general population, which may be a novel and accessible indicator for NAFLD screening.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the relationship of hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype (HTWP) with initial neurological severity and etiologic subtypes in patients with acute ischemic stroke. METHODS The data for this study were collected from hospitalized patients within 72 h of acute ischemic stroke onset at the Department of Neurology of the Affiliated Hospital of Beihua University from 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2022. The initial neurological severity was assessed by the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) on the day of admission: NIHSS <6 was defined as mild stroke, and NIHSS ≥6 as moderate to severe stroke. HTWP was defined by fasting serum triglycerides ≥1.7 mmol/L and waist circumference ≥90 cm in men and ≥80 cm in women. Differentiation of etiologic subtypes was based on the method reported in the Trial of Org 10 172 in Acute Stroke Treatment. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the association of HTWP with initial neurological severity and etiologic subtypes. RESULTS The study included 431 patients. Compared with the normal waist-normal blood triglyceride group, patients with HTWP had reduced risks of moderate to severe stroke [odds ratio (OR): 0.384, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.170-0.869; P = 0.022]. In addition, the risk of small-artery occlusion stroke was 2.318 times higher in the HTWP group than in the normal triglyceride-normal waist (NWNT) group (OR: 2.318, 95% CI: 1.244-4.319; P = 0.008). CONCLUSION Initial neurological severity was less severe in patients with HTWP, and HTWP was associated with an increased risk of small-artery occlusion stroke.

Hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype and risk of chronic kidney disease in community-dwelling adults aged 60 years and older in Tianjin, China: a 7-year cohort study. BMC Nephrol 2021; 22:182. [PMID: 34011292 PMCID: PMC8132422 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-021-02339-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2020] [Accepted: 04/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTGW) phenotype has been proposed to be related to the occurrence and progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The ageing trend of the Chinese population continues to intensify, and elderly individuals are at high risk of CKD. The purpose of this study was to investigate the cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between the HTGW phenotype and the risk of CKD by following community-dwelling adults aged 60 years and older in Tianjin, China, for 7 years. Methods This study was an observational cohort study conducted between 2013 and 2019. Of 2050 participants aged 60 years and older who underwent an annual health examination in 2013, 1605 individuals with complete data were enrolled in the cross-sectional analysis. Among them, 1271 individuals were observed until 2019. Detailed follow-up records were available for 816 participants, of whom 600 participants without CKD at baseline were eligible for inclusion in the retrospective analysis. The HTGW phenotype was defined as a waist circumference of 90 cm or more and triglyceride concentrations of 2.0 mmol/L or more in males or a waist circumference of 85 cm or more and triglyceride concentrations of 1.5 mmol/L or more in females. CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min/1.73m2 and/or proteinuria (urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) ≥ 30 mg/g). Multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the relationship between the HTGW phenotype and CKD. Results In 2013, the prevalence of CKD among older adults was 31.03%, and the prevalence of CKD in the HTGW phenotype group was 37.81%. Over a 7-year observation period, 195 individuals developed CKD, with an incidence rate of 32.50%. Statistically significant associations were observed between the HTGW phenotype and CKD in older adults in both cross-sectional surveys and retrospective analyses, with odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals of 1.38 (95% CI: 1.03–1.86, P = 0.033) and 2.27 (95% CI: 1.30–3.97, P = 0.004), respectively, after adjustment for confounders. Conclusions In this community-based cohort study, the HTGW phenotype was confirmed to be independently associated with an increased risk of prevalent and incident CKD in older adults aged 60 years and above in Tianjin, China.
