Prevalence rates of overweight and obesity and their associations with cardiometabolic and renal factors. SIMETAP-OB study

INTRODUCTION

Excess weight is a major health problem. Aims of this study were to determine the prevalence rates of overweight and obesity, and to compare their associations with cardiometabolic and renal risk factors between obese and non-obese populations, and between overweight and non-overweight populations.

METHODS

Cross-sectional observational study conducted in Primary Care. Population-based random sample: 6,588 study subjects between 18 and 102 years of age (response rate: 66%). Crude and sex- and age-adjusted prevalence rates of overweight and obesity were calculated, and their associations with cardiometabolic and renal variables were assessed by bivariate and multivariate analysis.

RESULTS

The age- and sex-adjusted prevalence rates of overweight and obesity were 36.0% (42.1% in men; 33.1% in women) and 25.0% (26.2% in men; 24.5% in women), respectively. These prevalences increased with age, and were higher in men than in women. Fifty-two percent (95%CI: 50.0-53.9) of the overweight population and 62.3% (95%CI: 60.1-64.5) of the obese population had a high or very high cardiovascular risk. Abdominal obesity, physical inactivity, prediabetes, hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, and low HDL-C were independently associated with both entities. Furthermore, diabetes was independently associated with overweight and hypercholesterolemia with obesity.

CONCLUSIONS

The prevalence of overweight and obesity was 61.0% (68.4% in men and 59.0% in women). More than half of the overweight population and nearly two-thirds of the obese population had a high cardiovascular risk. Hyperglycemia, physical inactivity, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, low HDL-C, and hypertriglyceridemia were independently associated with overweight and obesity.

Tasas de prevalencia de enfermedad renal crónica y su asociación con factores cardiometabólicos y enfermedades cardiovasculares. Estudio SIMETAP-ERC

INTRODUCTION

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major health problem that contributes to the development of cardiovascular disorders such as heart failure and arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ACVD). The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of CKD and to assess its association with ACVD and cardiometabolic risk factors.

METHODS

Cross-sectional observational study conducted in primary care setting. Population-based random sample: 6,588 people between 18 and 102 years old (response rate: 66%). Crude and sex- and age-adjusted prevalence rates of CKD according to KDIGO were determined by assessing albuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate according to CKD-EPI, and their associations with cardiometabolic factors and ACVD were determined.

RESULTS

The crude prevalence of CKD was 11.48% (95%CI: 10.72-12.27%), without significant difference between men (11.64% [95%CI: 10.49-12.86%]) and women (11.35% [95%CI: 10.34-12.41%]). The age- and sex-adjusted prevalence rate of CKD was 9.16% (men: 8.61%; women: 9.69%). The prevalence of low estimated glomerular filtration rate (<60mL/min/1.73m²) and albuminuria (≥30mg/g) were 7.95% (95%CI: 7.30-8.61) and 5.98% (95%CI: 5.41-6.55), respectively. Hypertension, diabetes, prediabetes, increased waist-to-height ratio, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and ACVD were independently associated with CKD (P<.001). Very high cardiovascular risk according to SCORE was found in 77.51% (95%CI: 74.54-80.49) of the population with CKD.

CONCLUSIONS

The adjusted prevalence of CKD was 9.2% (low estimated glomerular filtration rate: 8.0%; albuminuria: 6.0%). Most of the patients with CKD had very high cardiovascular risk. Hypertension, diabetes, prediabetes, increased waist-to-height ratio and ACVD were independently associated with CKD.

Prevalence of prediabetes and association with cardiometabolic and renal factors. SIMETAP-PRED study

INTRODUCTION

Prediabetes is a major public health problem. The aims of the SIMETAP-PRED study were to determine the prevalence rates of prediabetes according to two diagnostic criteria, and to compare the association of cardiometabolic and renal risk factors between populations with and without prediabetes.

METHODS

Cross-sectional observational study conducted in Primary Care. Based random sample: 6,588 study subjects (response rate: 66%). Two diagnostic criteria for prediabetes were used: 1) prediabetes according to the Spanish Diabetes Society (PRED-SDS): Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) 110-125mg/dL or HbA1c 6.0% -6.4%; 2) prediabetes according to the American Diabetes Association (PRED-ADA): FPG 100-125mg/dL or HbA1c 5.7%-6.4%. The crude and sex- and age-adjusted prevalence rates, and cardiometabolic and renal variables associated with prediabetes were assessed.

RESULTS

The crude prevalence rates of PRED-SDS and PRED-ADA were 7.9% (95% CI 7.3-8.6%), and 22.0% (95% CI 21.0-23.0%) respectively, their age-adjusted prevalence rates were 6.6% and 19.1 respectively. The high or very high cardiovascular risk of the PRED-SDS or PRED-ADA populations were 68.6% (95%CI 64.5-72.6%) and 61.7% (95%CI 59.1-64.1%) respectively. Hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, overweight, obesity, and increased waist-to-height ratio were independently associated with PRED-SDS. In addition to these factors, low glomerular filtration rate and hypercholesterolemia were also independently associated with PRED-ADA.

CONCLUSIONS

The prevalence of PRED-ADA triples that of PRED-SDS. Two thirds of the population with prediabetes had a high cardiovascular risk. Several cardiometabolic and renal risk factors were associated with prediabetes. Compared to the SDS criteria, the ADA criteria make the diagnosis of prediabetes easier.

Obesity, physical activity and prediabetes in adult children of people with diabetes

OBJECTIVES

Determine prevalence of obesity / overweight, physical activity (PA) and prediabetes in adult children of parents with type 2 diabetes; identify differences according to sociodemographic variables, and describe the relationship of obesity/overweight with fasting glucose (FG) and glycosylated hemoglobin (A1C).

METHODS

Cross-sectional study in 30 Mexican families with 53 participating adult children. Obesity / overweight was determined with Body Mass Index (BMI), Waist Circumference (WC) and body fat percentage (BFP); PA with the short International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), and prediabetes with FG.

RESULTS

64% of participants presented obesity / overweight, 32% low PA, and 19% prediabetes. Men had higher WC than women (U= 219, p= 0.03). Women showed more BFP than men (U= 142, p <0.01). Blood glucose was related to BFP (rs= 0.336, p < 0.05), the A1C with the BMI (rs= 0.417, p <0.01), WC (rs= 0.394, p<0.01), BFP (rs= 0.494, p<0.01) and intense PA (rs= - 0.285, p<0.05).

CONCLUSIONS

High prevalence of obesity / overweight and low PA were found. The FG was related only to BFP and A1C, in addition to BMI, WC and inversely with intense BP. It is recommended to modify the educational strategies of nursing at a family level.
