The association between abdominal obesity and depressive symptoms among Chinese adults: Evidence from national and regional communities. J Affect Disord 2024; 365:49-55. [PMID: 39147156 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2024.08.075] [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: 04/13/2024] [Revised: 06/18/2024] [Accepted: 08/12/2024] [Indexed: 08/17/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between body shape and depressive symptoms has been reported in adults. The present study aimed to investigate the association between body shape-specific abdominal obesity and depressive symptoms among multi-regional Asian adults. METHODS The 2011-2012 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study and 2022-2023 Hangzhou study were used as the discovery and validation datasets, respectively. Body shape was assessed by body mass index categories. Abdominal obesity was defined as a body shape index (ABSI) ≥ 75th centile. Depression was measured using 10-item Centre for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale and Geriatric Depression Scale short 15-item version, respectively. General linear and multinomial logistic models were used to explore the association of ABSI, abdominal obesity with depressive scores and presence, respectively. RESULTS A total of 12,229 and 1210 participants were included in the discovery and validation datasets, respectively. A non-linear reverse L-shaped association was found between ABSI and depressive scores. Participants with abdominal obesity had higher depressive scores (β = 0.05, 95%CI = 0.01-0.09; and β = 0.13, 95%CI = 0.01-0.24; respectively). Stratified analyses showed that abdominal obesity was associated with higher depressive scores (β = 0.09, 95%CI = 0.00-0.17; and β = 0.25, 95%CI = 0.05-0.46; respectively) and presence (OR = 1.46, 95%CI = 1.02-2.10; and OR = 3.95, 95%CI = 1.58-9.84; respectively) in overweight adults. Furthermore, abdominal obesity was associated with depressive symptoms among overweight females, but not among males. LIMITATION Causal links weren't addressed because of the observational study design. CONCLUSION Abdominal obesity exhibited a positive association with depressive symptoms among Asian overweight adults, particularly in females. Prevention and early diagnosis of depressive symptoms should focus on overweight females.

Abstract
AIMS To compare the predictive abilities of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-corrected BMI (wBMI), a body shape index (ABSI), and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) for the incidence of type 2 diabetes and determine the practical cut-off values for the Japanese population. METHODS This study used data from 155,623 participants who had medical checkups with Panasonic Corporation between 2008 and 2021. Predictive abilities of anthropometric indices were evaluated at 13 years using time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses. RESULTS 8,800 developed type 2 diabetes during the study period. The area under the ROC curve for the WHtR was high (0.717, 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 0.710-0.724), with cut-off value of 0.497 in men, while those for wBMI (0.829, 95 % CI: 0.808-0.848) and WHtR (0.826, 95 % CI: 0.806-0.845) were high in women, with cut-off values of 18.6 kg/m and 0.510, respectively. It was also showed WHtR was the most effective in men, while WHtR and wBMI outperformed WC and were comparable to BMI in women for predicting type 2 diabetes. CONCLUSIONS WHtR demonstrated superior effectiveness in predicting type 2 diabetes in men, while both WHtR and wBMI showed higher effectiveness than WC and were almost equivalent to BMI in women.

[PMID: 39384863 PMCID: PMC11464524 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-74108-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2024] [Accepted: 09/23/2024] [Indexed: 10/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Research has established a positive association between food insecurity and obesity, typically assessed by body mass index (BMI); However, studies examining the relationship between food insecurity and measures of body fat content and distribution are lacking. The aim of this study was to examine the association between food insecurity and obesity ([BMI] ≥ 30 kg/m2) and body fat indicators assessed by body roundness index ([BRI] > 6.72) and a body shape index ([ABSI] > 0.08). This is a cross-sectional study using NHANES data 2007-2020. Household food security was assessed by U.S. Food Security Survey Module questionnaire. Multivariable-adjusted binary logistic regression analyses were used to calculate odds ratios and 95% CIs. Compared to those with full food security, the adjusted ORs for obesity were 1.28 (95% CI:1.18, 1.39), 1.40 (95% CI:1.28, 1.53), and 1.43 (95% CI:1.30, 1.57) for those with marginal, low and very low food security, respectively. The corresponding ORs for high BRI were, respectively, 1.39 (95% CI:1.26, 1.52), 1.50 (95% CI:1.36, 1.66), and 1.60 (95% CI:1.43, 1.78). Similar results were observed for ABSI. The analyses of BMI suggested a potential sex difference, as significant associations were found in women, but not in men. This study confirms previous evidence of the positive association between food insecurity and obesity among US adults.

[PMID: 39379534 PMCID: PMC11461872 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-73998-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2024] [Accepted: 09/23/2024] [Indexed: 10/10/2024] Open
Abstract
A body Shape index (ABSI), defined as waist circumference (WC)/(body mass index (BMI)2/3 × height1/2), is unique in that the ABSI is positively associated with visceral obesity and is independent of BMI. The ABSI has also been shown to be positively and linearly correlated with the amount of visceral adiposity in the general population and with all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, it is uncertain whether ABSI is associated with periodontitis in hypertensive patients. A cross-sectional study of 2,482 hypertensive patients (mean age 65.2 ± 9.1 years) was conducted using the ABSI Z score, periodontitis as a dichotomous variable, the ABSI Z score as a continuous variable, and multiple covariates such as age, gender, and race. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, multiple regression model, subgroup analysis with EmpowerStats (version 4.2), and curve transformation plots were generated. In multiple regression model analysis, ABSI Z score showed a significant positive association with periodontitis in the hypertensive population in all three models. When ABSI Z score was divided into low, moderate, and high three groups, we observed that those with the highest ABSI Z score had a 20% increased risk of periodontitis among people with hypertension (OR 1.2; 95% CI 1.0, 1.5; p = 0.046). We used smooth curve fitting to confirm the results and found that these results were still supported, and additional subgroup analyses showed that the positive association between ABSI Z score and periodontitis in hypertensive population was stable and consistent in the general population. The present cross-sectional investigation showed a positive association between ABSI Z score and periodontitis in a hypertensive population.

Abstract
AIM To assess the clinical utility of novel anthropometric indices and other traditional anthropometric indices in identifying the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) among South African adult females. METHODS In the first South African National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (SANHANES-1), traditional [body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR)] and novel [a-body shape index (ABSI), abdominal volume index (AVI), body adiposity index (BAI), body roundness index (BRI), conicity index (CI), and Clínica Universidad de Navarra-Body Adiposity Estimator (CUN-BAE)] anthropometric indices were assessed. T2D was diagnosed using glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) ≥ 6.5% among participants without known T2D. Basic statistics and multiple regression analyses were explored the association between anthropometric indices and newly diagnosed T2D. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to measure the predictive ability of both traditional and novel indices. RESULTS Among 2 623 participants, 384 (14.6%) had newly diagnosed T2D. All anthropometric indices mean values were significantly higher among participants with T2D (most p < 0.001). Higher mean values increased T2D odds e.g., in the model adjusted for age, employment, residence, and population group, odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for T2D with some of anthropometric indices were: 1.86 (1.60-2.15) for WC, 1.84 (1.59-2.13) for WHtR, 1.73 (1.51-1.99) for AVI, 1.71 (1.49-1.96) for BRI and 1.86 (1.57-2.20) for CUN-BAE. The top quartile for all indices had the highest T2D odds (p < 0.05). These outcomes were the highest for WC, AVI, and CUN-BAE and remained so even after removing the confounding effects of age, employment, population group, and residence. Based on the ROC analysis, none of the anthropometrical indices performed excellently (i.e., had an area under the curve [AUC] > 0.80). The WC, WHtR, AVI, BRI, and CUN-BAE, however, performed acceptably (AUCs 0.70-0.79), while also exhibiting corresponding cutoff values of 86.65 cm, 0.57, 15.52, 3.83, and 38.35, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The data shows that traditional and novel anthropometric indices similarly identifying newly diagnosed T2D among adult South African females. We recommend the continuing the use of traditional indices, as they are affordable and easy to use in our setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The distribution of body fat and metabolic health may contribute to the onset of metabolic syndrome (MetS), but the associations between body fat anthropometric indices (AIs) and mortality in individuals with MetS remain unclear. METHODS Participants aged 18 years or older with MetS were recruited from the NHANES 1999-2018. The body fat anthropometric indices included the a body shape index (ABSI), body roundness index (BRI), cardiometabolic index (CMI), visceral adiposity index (VAI), waist triglyceride index (WTI), lipid accumulation product (LAP), atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), and triglyceride‒glucose (TyG) index. MetS was defined according to the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP ATPIII) criteria. Mortality data were obtained from the National Death Index through December 31, 2019. RESULTS Data were collected from 8,379 individuals with MetS, with a median follow-up of 8.5 years, of whom 1,698 died from all causes and 568 from the CCD. The random survival forest (RSF) analysis indicated that the ABSI had the strongest predictive power for both all-cause mortality and CCD mortality among the eight body fat AIs. After adjusting for multiple variables, the ABSI was found to be linearly and positively associated with all-cause and CCD mortality in individuals with MetS. Participants in the highest quartile of ABSI had an increased risk of all-cause (HR = 1.773 [1.419-2.215]) and CCD (HR = 1.735 [1.267-2.375]) mortality compared with those in the lowest quartile. Furthermore, the ABSI predicted areas under the curve (AUCs) of 0.735, 0.723, 0.718, and 0.725 for all-cause mortality at 3, 5, 10, and 15 years, respectively, and 0.774, 0.758, 0.725, and 0.715 for CCD mortality, respectively. CONCLUSION Among eight body fat AIs, the ABSI exhibited the strongest predictive power for mortality in individuals with MetS. Higher ABSI values significantly increased all-cause mortality and CCD mortality in participants with MetS.

Abstract
Purpose This research aimed to assess the correlation between the Adjusted Body Shape Index (ABSI) and the presence of abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) among middle-aged and older American adults. Methods Employing a cross-sectional design, this study analyzed data from the 2013-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), focusing on 3077 participants aged 40 and above. AAC detection was conducted using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). ABSI was determined based on waist circumference (WC), weight, and height data. The association between ABSI and AAC was examined through multiple linear regression, smoothed curve analysis, threshold effect evaluation, subgroup analysis, and interaction testing. Results The study encompassed 3077 individuals aged 40 and above. Findings indicated a noteworthy positive relationship between ABSI and AAC when adjusting various covariates. Analysis of threshold effects identified a K-point at 0.0908, showing no significant effect to its left but a significant effect to its right. Further, subgroup and interaction analyses highlighted the ABSI-AAC connection specifically within different age groups and among individuals with diabetes. Conclusion Higher ABSI was correlated with higher AAC score.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Green tea kombucha (GTK) is a fermented beverage with promising health benefits, but few studies proved its impact on human health. Thus, we aimed to investigate the impact of GTK on weight loss, inflammation, and salivary microbiota in individuals with excess body weight. METHODS This is a randomized controlled clinical trial that lasted 10 weeks with two groups of individuals with excess body weight: control (CG; n = 29; caloric restriction) and kombucha (KG; n = 30; caloric restriction + 200 mL GTK). Body composition, anthropometry, saliva, and blood collection were performed in the beginning and end of the intervention. Plasma interleukins were determined by flow cytometry. Salivary microbiota was analyzed by 16S rRNA sequencing. RESULTS Both groups decreased weight, BMI, and body fat (p < 0.001) after the intervention, but there were no differences between groups. The KG reduced lipid accumulation product (LAP) (p = 0.029). Both groups decreased IL-1β and IL-8, but IL-6 increased in the CG (p = 0.023) compared to the kombucha group. Alpha and beta diversity of salivary microbiota increased in the KG. Moreover, the KG presented lower Bacillota/Bacteroidota ratio (p = 0.028), and BMI was positively associated with the Bacillota phylum. CONCLUSIONS GTK did not enhance weight loss, but it decreased the LAP. GTK helped in the inflammatory profile and induced positive changes in oral microbiota composition.

Luna M, Pereira S, Saboya C, Ramalho A. Relationship between Body Adiposity Indices and Reversal of Metabolically Unhealthy Obesity 6 Months after Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass. Metabolites 2024; 14:502. [PMID: 39330509 PMCID: PMC11434138 DOI: 10.3390/metabo14090502] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2024] [Revised: 08/30/2024] [Accepted: 09/10/2024] [Indexed: 09/28/2024] Open
Abstract
The factors determining the reversal of metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO) to metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) are not completely elucidated. The present study aims to evaluate body adiposity and distribution, through different indices, according to metabolic phenotypes before and 6 months after RYGB, and the relationship between these indices and transition from MUO to MHO. This study reports a prospective longitudinal study on adults with obesity who were evaluated before (T0) and 6 months (T1) after RYGB. Bodyweight, height, waist circumference (WC), BMI, waist-to-height ratio (WHR), total cholesterol (TC), HDL-c, LDL-c, triglycerides, insulin, glucose, HbA1c and HOMA-IR were evaluated. The visceral adiposity index (VAI), the conicity index (CI), the lipid accumulation product (LAP), CUN-BAE and body shape index (ABSI) were calculated. MUO was classified based on insulin resistance. MUO at T0 with transition to MHO at T1 formed the MHO-t group MHO and MUO at both T0 and T1 formed the MHO-m and MUO-m groups, respectively. At T0, 37.3% of the 62 individuals were classified as MHO and 62.7% as MUO. Individuals in the MUO-T0 group had higher blood glucose, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, insulin, TC and LDL-c compared to those in the MHO-T0 group. Both groups showed significant improvement in biochemical and body variables at T1. After RYGB, 89.2% of MUO-T0 became MHO (MHO-t). The MUO-m group presented higher HOMA-IR, insulin and VAI, compared to the MHO-m and MHO-t groups. CI and ABSI at T0 correlated with HOMA-IR at T1 in the MHO-t and MHO-m groups. CI and ABSI, indicators of visceral fat, are promising for predicting post-RYGB metabolic improvement. Additional studies are needed to confirm the sustainability of MUO reversion and its relationship with these indices.

Abstract
Background: The coexistence of obesity and low muscle strength-denoted dynapenic obesity (DO)-has been associated with an unhealthy metabolic profile and increased risk for metabolic syndrome. However, there is a lack on studies investigating if DO exhibits higher cardiometabolic risk than non-dynapenic obesity. Objectives: To assess if individuals with DO exhibit elevated cardiometabolic risk compared to non-dynapenic obesity. Methods: a cross-sectional study that analyzed the data of workers from a quaternary care hospital collected between November 2018 and March 2020. Participants were stratified into the following anthropometrical and peripheral muscle strength profiles: non-obese/non-dynapenic (NOND), non-obese/dynapenic (NOD), obese/non-dynapenic (OND), and obese dynapenic (OD). Cardiovascular risk was evaluated by Atherogenic Index (AI), Plasma Atherogenic Index (PAI), Hypertriglyceridemic Waist (HW), A Body Shape Index (ABSI), Atherogenic Dyslipidemia (AD), Castelli Indices I and II, and Framingham Score (FS). Results: the OD group had significantly lower HDL compared to all others (p = 0.009), and despite exhibited lower prevalence of HW compared to OND (p < 0.01), a higher cardiometabolic risk compared to OND profile was observed assessing AI (p = 0.05), Castelli I (p < 0.05) and Castelli II (p < 0.05) scores. Conclusions: in the studied population, individuals with DO exhibit elevated cardiometabolic risk compared to other anthropometrical and peripheral muscle strength profiles.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the relationship between the weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) and all-cause mortality as well as cardiovascular mortality in individuals with type 2 diabetes. METHODS We used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2018 and the UK Biobank database. Restricted cubic spline curves and Cox proportional hazards models were employed to assess hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for all-cause mortality. RESULTS In the UK Biobank database, compared with the lowest WWI quartile, the HR for all-cause and cardiovascular death in the highest quartile was 1.846 (95% CI 1.687-2.019) and 2.118 (95% CI 1.783-2.517), respectively, in the fully adjusted model. In the NHANES database, compared with the lowest WWI quartile, the highest quartile had an HR of 1.727 (95% CI 1.378-2.163) for all-cause death and 1.719 (95% CI 1.139-2.595) for cardiovascular death in the fully adjusted model. CONCLUSIONS Our study indicates that WWI has a long-term synergistic negative impact on all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in individuals with type 2 diabetes. The WWI is an independent predictor of mortality in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

BMC Geriatr 2024; 24:757. [PMID: 39272030 PMCID: PMC11395910 DOI: 10.1186/s12877-024-05339-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 08/28/2024] [Indexed: 09/15/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between healthy lifestyle and frailty remains unclear. Healthy weight is crucial for overall well-being, but using body mass index (BMI) to evaluate weight management is inefficient. This study clarifies the association between healthy lifestyle or its factors (non-smoking, moderate drinking, healthy weight, healthy diet, sufficeint physical activity, and non-sedentary) and frailty, and the feasibility of using the weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) reflecting central obesity as an intermediate indicator. METHODS This study included 4,473 participants from the 2007-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Healthy lifestyle quality was assessed by summing the scores of each healthy lifestyle factor. Frailty was assessed using a 49-item frailty index (FI), categorizing participants into robust, pre-frail, and frail. Logistic regression to investigate the association between healthy lifestyle or its factors, WWI, and frailty. Smooth curve fitting and threshold effect analyses were used to elucidate the nonlinear association. Subgroup and two other sensitivity analyses were conducted to confirm the stability of the results. A causal mediation model examined the proportion of frailty mediated by WWI. RESULTS The study identified 13.98% of the participants as frail. Optimal healthy lifestyle and frailty were negatively associated (OR: 0.39, 95%CI: 0.27-0.58). Five healthy lifestyle factors (non-smoking, healthy weight, healthy diet, sufficient physical activity, and non-sedentary) were associated with a lower prevalence of frailty, with odds ratios (OR) ranging from 0.48 to 0.61. We also analyzed the association between a healthy lifestyle and WWI (OR: 0.32, 95%CI: 0.27-0.37), WWI and frailty (OR: 1.85, 95%CI: 1.59-2.16). A positive association between WWI and FI was observed beyond the inflection point (9.99) (OR: 0.03, 95%CI: 0.02-0.03). Subgroup and sensitivity analyses confirmed stable associations between healthy lifestyle, WWI, and frailty. WWI partially mediated the association between a healthy lifestyle and frailty (mediating ratio = 20.50-20.65%). CONCLUSIONS An optimal healthy lifestyle and positive healthy lifestyle factors are associated with a lower incidence of frailty. WWI may mediate the relationship between a healthy lifestyle and frailty.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the specific role of inflammation in the connection between obesity and the overall incidence of cancer. Methods A total of 356,554 participants in MJ cohort study were included. Systemic inflammation markers from blood samples and anthropometric measurements were determined using professional instruments. The Cox model was adopted to evaluate the association. Results Over a median follow-up of 8.2 years, 9,048 cancer cases were identified. For individual systemic inflammation biomarkers, the overall cancer risk significantly escalated as blood C-reactive protein (CRP) (hazard ratio (HR)=1.036 (1.017-1.054)) and globulin (GLO) (HR=1.128 (1.105-1.152)) levels increased, and as hemoglobin (HEMO) (HR=0.863 (0.842-0.884)), albumin (ALB) (HR=0.846 (0.829-0.863)) and platelets (PLA) (HR=0.842 (0.827-0.858)) levels decreased. For composite indicators, most of them existed a significant relationship to the overall cancer risk. Most indicators were correlated with the overall cancer and obesity-related cancer risk, but there was a reduction of association with non-obesity related cancer risk. Most of indicators mediated the association between anthropometric measurements and overall cancer risk. Conclusions Systemic inflammatory state was significantly associated with increased risks of cancer risk. Inflammation biomarkers were found to partly mediate the association between obesity and cancer risk.

Associations of circulating total p-cresylsulfate and indoxyl sulfate concentrations with central obesity in patients with stable coronary artery disease: sex-specific insights. Int J Obes (Lond) 2024:10.1038/s41366-024-01624-1. [PMID: 39237758 DOI: 10.1038/s41366-024-01624-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2024] [Revised: 08/21/2024] [Accepted: 08/27/2024] [Indexed: 09/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Elevated systemic inflammation, common in obesity, increases cardiovascular disease risk. Obesity is linked to a pro-inflammatory gut microbiota that releases uremic toxins like p-cresylsulfate (PCS) and indoxyl sulfate (IS), which are implicated in coronary atherosclerosis, insulin resistance, and chronic kidney disease. This study examines the relationship between total PCS and IS levels and central obesity in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted on 373 consecutive patients with stable CAD from a single center. Serum levels of total PCS and IS were measured using an Ultra Performance LC System. Central obesity was evaluated using a body shape index (ABSI) and conicity index (CI). Six obesity-related proteins were also analyzed. Structural equation modeling (SEM) assessed direct and indirect effects of total PCS, IS, and the six obesity-related proteins on central obesity. RESULTS Significant positive correlations were found between total PCS and IS with waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) (r = 0.174, p = 0.005 for total PCS; r = 0.144, p = 0.021 for IS), CI (r = 0.273, p < 0.0001 for total PCS; r = 0.260, p < 0.0001 for IS), and ABSI (r = 0.297, p < 0.0001 for total PCS; r = 0.285, p < 0.0001 for IS) in male patients, but not in female patients. Multivariate analysis showed higher odds ratios (ORs) for elevated CI (OR = 3.18, 95% CI: 1.54-6.75, p = 0.002) and ABSI (OR = 3.28, 95% CI: 1.54-7.24, p = 0.002) in patients with high PCS levels, and elevated CI (OR = 2.30, 95% CI: 1.15-4.66, p = 0.018) and ABSI (OR = 2.22, 95% CI: 1.07-4.72, p = 0.033) in those with high IS levels, compared to those with low toxin levels. SEM analysis indicated that total PCS and IS directly impacted central obesity indices and indirectly influenced central adiposity measures like WHR through high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) (β = 0.252, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Circulating total PCS and IS contribute to central obesity in male patients with stable CAD, partially mediated by hs-CRP.

Sex disparity in the association between metabolic-anthropometric phenotypes and risk of obesity-related cancer: a prospective cohort study. BMC Med 2024; 22:355. [PMID: 39218868 PMCID: PMC11367774 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-024-03592-9] [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: 01/02/2024] [Accepted: 08/27/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sex disparity between metabolic-obesity (defined by body mass index, BMI) phenotypes and obesity-related cancer (ORC) remains unknown. Considering BMI reflecting overall obesity but not fat distribution, we aimed to systematically assess the association of our newly proposed metabolic-anthropometric phenotypes with risk of overall and site-specific ORC by sex. METHODS A total of 141,579 men (mean age: 56.37 years, mean follow-up time: 12.04 years) and 131,047 women (mean age: 56.22 years, mean follow up time: 11.82 years) from the UK Biobank was included, and designated as metabolic-anthropometric phenotypes based on metabolic status (metabolically healthy/unhealthy), BMI (non-obesity/obesity) and body shape (pear/slim/apple/wide). The sex-specific association of different phenotypes with overall and site-specific ORC was assessed by hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using Cox proportional hazards regression models. RESULTS We found metabolically unhealthy and/or obesity phenotypes conveyed a higher risk in men than in women for overall ORC and colorectal cancer compared with metabolically healthy non-obesity phenotype (Pinteraction < 0.05). Of note, metabolically healthy obesity phenotype contributed to increased risks of most ORC in men (HRs: 1.58 ~ 2.91), but only correlated with higher risks of endometrial (HR = 1.89, 95% CI: 1.54-2.32) and postmenopausal breast cancers (HR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.05-1.31) in women. Similarly, even under metabolically healthy, men carrying apple and wide shapes phenotypes (metabolically healthy apple/wide and metabolically healthy non-obesity apple/wide) suffered an increased risk of ORC (mainly colorectal, liver, gastric cardia, and renal cancers, HRs: 1.20 ~ 3.81) in comparison with pear shape or non-obesity pear shape. CONCLUSIONS There was a significant sex disparity between metabolic-anthropometric phenotypes and ORC risk. We advised future ORC prevention and control worth taking body shape and sex disparity into account.

Abstract
The present study aimed to assess the relationship between body shape, physical activity (PA), and systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP). A novel visualization method was used to examine the effects of body shape combined with physical activity on hypertension. Data from 54,303 participants were obtained from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) and analyzed using logistic regression models and standardized regression coefficients of linear models. These models were used to explore factors and effects of body shape indices and other parameters on SBP and DBP. The logistic regression model revealed that compared to transport-related PA, the aggregated variables (weight and waist) were associated with a 2.44-fold and 1.65-fold increase in the risk of hypertension, respectively (p < .05). The average aggregated standardized coefficient of the linear model, based on 1000 bootstrap resamples, indicated that the Base Shape group had the strongest explanatory power for hypertension, followed by the Habits group. However, the explanatory power of the PA group was around 10 and 22 times lower than that of the Base Shape group for DBP and SBP, respectively (p < .05). These results demonstrate that increasing physical activity, with emphasizing a healthy body shape, and adopting positive lifestyle habits can effectively contribute to the prevention and control of hypertension.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review aims to discuss strengths and limitations of body mass index (BMI) in diagnosing obesity, the use of alternative anthropometric measurements, and potential new technology that may change the future of obesity diagnosis and management. RECENT FINDINGS The diagnosis of obesity requires the anthropometric assessment of adiposity. In clinical settings, this should include BMI with confirmation that elevated BMI represents excess adiposity and a measure of fat distribution (i.e., waist circumference (WC), waist to height ratio (WHtR), or WC divided by height0.5 (WHR.5R). Digital anthropometry and bioelectric impedance (BIA) can estimate fat distribution and be feasibly employed in the clinic. In addition, the diagnosis should include a clinical component assessing the presence and severity of weight-related complications. As anthropometric measures used in the diagnosis of obesity, BMI is generally sufficient if confirmed to represent excess adiposity, and there are advantages to the use of WHtR over WC to assess fat distribution. BIA and digital anthropometry have the potential to provide accurate measures of fat mass and distribution in clinical settings. There should also be a clinical evaluation for the presence and severity of obesity complications that can be used to stage the disease.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic multi-system disease and major driver of type 2 diabetes and cardiometabolic disease. Nutritional interventions form the cornerstone of obesity and type 2 diabetes management. Some interventions such as Mediterranean diet can reduce incident cardiovascular disease, probably independently of weight loss. Weight loss of 5% or greater can improve many adiposity-related comorbidities. Although this can be achieved with lifestyle intervention, it is often difficult to sustain in the longer term due to adaptive endocrine changes. In recent years glucagon-like-peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have emerged as effective treatments for both type 2 diabetes and obesity. Newer GLP-1RAs can achieve average weight loss of 15% or greater and improve cardiometabolic health. There is heterogeneity in the weight loss response to GLP-1RAs, with a substantial number of patients unable to achieve 5% or greater weight. Weight loss, on average, is lower in older adults, male patients and people with type 2 diabetes. Mechanistic studies are needed to understand the aetiology of this variable response. Gastrointestinal side effects leading to medication discontinuation are a concern with GLP-1RA treatment, based on real-world data. With weight loss of 20% or higher with newer GLP-1RAs, nutritional deficiency and sarcopenia are also potential concerns. Lifestyle interventions that may potentially mitigate the side effects of GLP-1RA treatment and enhance weight loss are discussed here. The efficacy of such interventions awaits confirmation with well-designed randomized controlled trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited information exists linking food habits, diet quality, and lifestyle scores with anthropometric indices and happiness levels. Our aim was to examine the association between food habits, diet quality, and lifestyle scores with anthropometric indices and happiness levels in the Iranian population. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 200 students randomly selected from a university in Iran. Dietary intakes, physical activity (PA), and happiness levels of study participants were assessed using validated questionnaires. The anthropometric indices examined in this study included the body shape index (ABSI), body roundness index (BRI), and abdominal volume index (AVI). Multiple logistic regression models were used to examine the association between food habits, diet quality, and lifestyle scores with anthropometric indices and happiness levels. RESULTS The mean age and body mass index (BMI) of study participants were 23.5 years ± 4.52 and 23.8 kg/m2 ± 3.17, respectively. In the study population, no significant association was seen between ABSI, BRI, AVI and happiness with food habits, diet quality, and lifestyle scores respectively. After adjusting for potential confounders (age, energy intake, marital status, education, smoking, physical activity, gender, and BMI), the association remained not significant for ABSI and food habits, diet quality, and lifestyle scores respectively (OR: 0.56, 95% CI (0.25-1.34), P = 0.193; OR: 0.59, 95% CI (0.22-1.57), P = 0.413; OR:1.19, 95%CI (0.54-2.63), P = 0.652), BRI and food habits, diet quality, and lifestyle scores respectively (OR:1.98, 95% CI (0.41-9.49), P = 0.381; OR: 0.57, 95%CI (0.12-2.74), P = 0.512; OR: 1.19, 95% CI (0.3-4.71), P = 0.811), AVI and food habits, diet quality, and lifestyle scores (OR:1.15, 95% CI (0.53-2.48), P = 0.743, OR:1.01, 95% CI (0.47-2.18), P = 0.965; OR: 1.3, 95% CI (0.64-2.65), P = 0.465) and happiness and food habits, diet quality, and lifestyle scores respectively (OR:0.3, 95%CI (0.07-1.25), P = 0.972; OR: 0.77, 95%CI (0.18-3.19), P = 0.724, OR: 0.3, 95% CI (0.07-1.25), P = 0.083). CONCLUSIONS No significant association was detected between food habits, diet quality, and lifestyle scores with anthropometric indices and happiness levels. However, longitudinal studies are required to confirm these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies using a single obesity indicator cannot fully assess the association between body shape and mortality. We aimed to investigate the association between complementary anthropometric measures and all-cause mortality risk. METHODS We combined National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data from 2011 to 2016 with mortality data up to December 31, 2019. After excluding individuals with cancer at baseline, 13,728 participants were included. Cox regression models and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analyses were used to explore the association between general obesity, central obesity, and peripheral fat indicators and all-cause mortality risk. RESULTS A total of 743 deaths occurred over a median follow-up of 5.83 years. In multivariable-adjusted Cox models, each 10-cm increase in waist circumference (WC), each 0.1-unit increase in waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), and each 0.01-unit increase in A Body Shape Index (ABSI) were associated with 20% (HR = 1.20; 95% CI: 1.02-1.41), 119% (2.19; 1.70-2.83), and 5% (1.05; 1.03-1.08) increased all-cause mortality risk, respectively. Conversely, each 1-cm increment in mid-arm circumference (MAC) was associated with 13% (HR = 0.87; 95% CI: 0.83-0.92) decreased mortality risk. Compared with normal group (body mass index (BMI): 18.5- <25.0), underweight (HR = 1.97; 95% CI: 1.12-3.45) and grade 3 obesity (1.37; 1.04-1.81) were at higher mortality risk. However, after further adjustment for WC, the effect of grade 3 obesity disappeared, and the RCS analyses for BMI changed from a J-shaped (P < 0.05 for non-linearity test) to a negative association (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Underweight, grade 3 obesity, and central obesity were associated with an increased mortality risk, while peripheral fat was inversely associated with mortality.

Dietary diversity and its association with changes in anthropometric indices of community-dwelling older adults in Tehran, Iran: a longitudinal study (2017-2021). BMC Public Health 2024; 24:2253. [PMID: 39164719 PMCID: PMC11334311 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-024-19635-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2024] [Accepted: 07/29/2024] [Indexed: 08/22/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dietary diversity refers to the consumption of a variety of foods or food groups over a given reference period, which is crucial for improving nutrition and overall health. This longitudinal study aimed to investigate the association between dietary diversity and anthropometric indices in community-dwelling older adults living in Tehran in 2017 and 2021. METHODS The current study was conducted on 368 older adults [204 (55.4%) women and 164 (44.6%) men] over 60 years of age living in Tehran, who were selected by a systematic cluster sampling method at two-time points, 2017 and 2021. Anthropometric measures (weight, height, hip circumference, and waist circumference) were assessed with standard methods. The participants' dietary intake was assessed by completing two non-consecutive 24-hour recalls, and dietary diversity score (DDS) was calculated based on Kant's method. Statistical analysis was performed using R software by the mixed effect model method. RESULTS The mean DDS of the participants in 2017 (5.07 ± 1.20) was higher than that in 2021 (4.94 ± 1.09) (p < 0.05). DDS and dairy diversity score decreased significantly over time. After adjusting for confounders, there was an inverse relationship between the DDS and Body Mass Index (BMI) (B = -0.22; SE = 0.09), but the interaction effect of year × DDS (B = 0.19; SE = 0.10) was not significant (p = 0.06). However, there was a positive relationship between the DDS and A Body Shape Index (ABSI) (B = 0.00; p = 0.022), after adjusting for confounders, this relationship was no longer significant. Additionally, the interaction effect of year and DDS on the ABSI was not significant. CONCLUSION The dietary intake and dietary diversity of older adult residents of Tehran declined dramatically with age, and a higher DDS was associated with improved anthropometric indices. DDS had an inverse relationship with general obesity in the studied participants, and the passage of time did not affect this relationship. The DDS can be used as a predictive index and is a powerful tool for investigating changes in nutritional status in longitudinal studies of old age. However, longer-duration studies are needed to obtain more conclusive results.

Abstract
AIMS Although body mass index (BMI) is the most commonly used anthropometric measure to assess adiposity, alternative indices such as the waist-to-height ratio may better reflect the location and amount of ectopic fat as well as the weight of the skeleton. METHODS AND RESULTS The prognostic value of several alternative anthropometric measures was compared with that of BMI in 1116 patients with non-ischaemic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) enrolled in DANISH. The association between anthropometric measures and all-cause death was adjusted for prognostic variables, including natriuretic peptides. Median follow-up was 9.5 years (25th-75th percentile, 7.9-10.9). Compared to patients with a BMI 18.5-24.9 kg/m2 (n = 363), those with a BMI ≥25 kg/m2 had a higher risk of all-cause and cardiovascular death, although this association was only statistically significant for a BMI ≥35 kg/m2 (n = 91) (all-cause death: hazard ratio [HR] 1.78, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.28-2.48; cardiovascular death: HR 2.46, 95% CI 1.69-3.58). Compared to a BMI 18.5-24.9 kg/m2, a BMI <18.5 kg/m2 (n = 24) was associated with a numerically, but not a significantly, higher risk of all-cause and cardiovascular death. Greater waist-to-height ratio (as an exemplar of indices not incorporating weight) was also associated with a higher risk of all-cause and cardiovascular death (HR for the highest vs. the lowest quintile: all-cause death: HR 2.11, 95% CI 1.53-2.92; cardiovascular death: HR 2.17, 95% CI 1.49-3.15). CONCLUSION In patients with non-ischaemic HFrEF, there was a clear association between greater adiposity and higher long-term mortality. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00542945.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While body mass index (BMI) defines obesity as a well-established risk factor for cardiovascular disease, the paradoxical theory of BMI suggests that obesity may indeed have a favorable impact on the prognosis of cardiovascular disease. Therefore, this study aims to assess the correlation between body shape index (ABSI), which is a novel measure of obesity, and coronary heart disease (CHD) among obese individuals in the United States. METHODS The data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) were evaluated by us for 5046 patients. We assessed the exposure variable ABSI, which includes waist circumference (WC), height, and BMI. The outcome variable was CHD. RESULTS The cross-sectional study included a total of 5046 obese adults aged over 20 years, with an average age (standard deviation: SD) of 49.86 (16.24) years and a male proportion of 44.57%.The odds ratio (OR) values for CHD in Model 1, Model 2, 3 were found to be 2.45 (95%CI: 2.12, 2.83), 1.53 (95%CI:1.30, 1.81) and 1.31 (95%CI:1.09, 1.56) per SD increase in ABSI, respectively. In the fully adjusted model, we designated participants in the T1 group as the reference group. Our findings indicate a significant increase in the prevalence of CHD (OR:1.82, 95%CI: 1.07-3.10) only within the T3 group. Although there is an increased prevalence of CHD (OR:1.32, 95%CI: 0.77-2.29) in the T2 group, no statistically significant difference was observed. CONCLUSIONS The increase in ABSI is strongly associated with the rise in CHD prevalence among obese individuals in the United States.

Abstract
Diabetes is a complex and rapidly growing disease with heterogeneous clinical presentations. Recent advances in molecular and genetic technologies have led to the identification of various subtypes of diabetes. These advancements offer the potential for a more precise, individualized approach to treatment, known as precision medicine. Recognizing high-risk phenotypes and intervening early and intensively is crucial. A staging system for type 1 diabetes has been proposed and accepted globally. In this article, we will explore the different methods for categorizing and classifying type 2 diabetes (T2D) based on clinical characteristics, progression patterns, risk of complications, and the use of molecular techniques for patient grouping. We, as a team of experts, will also present an easy-to-follow treatment plan and guidance for non-specialists, particularly primary care physicians, that integrates the classification and staging of diabetes. This will help ensure that the most suitable therapy is applied to the different types of T2D at each stage of the disease's progression.

Association of body shape phenotypes and body fat distribution indexes with inflammatory biomarkers in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) and UK Biobank. BMC Med 2024; 22:334. [PMID: 39148045 PMCID: PMC11328449 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-024-03544-3] [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: 03/04/2024] [Accepted: 07/29/2024] [Indexed: 08/17/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The allometric body shape index (ABSI) and hip index (HI), as well as multi-trait body shape phenotypes, have not yet been compared in their associations with inflammatory markers. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between novel and traditional anthropometric indexes with inflammation using data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) and UK Biobank cohorts. METHODS Participants from EPIC (n = 17,943, 69.1% women) and UK Biobank (n = 426,223, 53.2% women) with data on anthropometric indexes and C-reactive protein (CRP) were included in this cross-sectional analysis. A subset of women in EPIC also had at least one measurement for interleukins, tumour necrosis factor alpha, interferon gamma, leptin, and adiponectin. Four distinct body shape phenotypes were derived by a principal component (PC) analysis on height, weight, body mass index (BMI), waist (WC) and hip circumferences (HC), and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR). PC1 described overall adiposity, PC2 tall with low WHR, PC3 tall and centrally obese, and PC4 high BMI and weight with low WC and HC, suggesting an athletic phenotype. ABSI, HI, waist-to-height ratio and waist-to-hip index (WHI) were also calculated. Linear regression models were carried out separately in EPIC and UK Biobank stratified by sex and adjusted for age, smoking status, education, and physical activity. Results were additionally combined in a random-effects meta-analysis. RESULTS Traditional anthropometric indexes, particularly BMI, WC, and weight were positively associated with CRP levels, in men and women. Body shape phenotypes also showed distinct associations with CRP. Specifically, PC2 showed inverse associations with CRP in EPIC and UK Biobank in both sexes, similarly to height. PC3 was inversely associated with CRP among women, whereas positive associations were observed among men. CONCLUSIONS Specific indexes of body size and body fat distribution showed differential associations with inflammation in adults. Notably, our results suggest that in women, height may mitigate the impact of a higher WC and HC on inflammation. This suggests that subtypes of adiposity exhibit substantial variation in their inflammatory potential, which may have implications for inflammation-related chronic diseases.

Association of Body Surface Area versus Body Mass Index on Outcomes in Peripheral Arterial Disease. Ann Vasc Surg 2024:S0890-5096(24)00496-5. [PMID: 39098723 DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2024.07.099] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2024] [Revised: 06/30/2024] [Accepted: 07/04/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Numerous studies have indicated that increased obesity in patients with established peripheral artery disease (PAD) is inversely associated with disease prognosis, a phenomenon coined as the "obesity paradox". A major cause of criticism in studies investigating the obesity paradox is the use of body mass index (BMI) as a surrogate marker in defining and quantifying the degree or severity of obesity. We conducted a retrospective review to verify whether the obesity paradox persists in patients with PAD when using body surface area (BSA) as an alternative anthropometric measure. METHODS Patients undergoing surgery (open or endovascular) for PAD between January 2009 and March 2020 were identified from the Vascular Quality Initiative (VQI) national database. The association between BSA or BMI and risk of postoperative complications was evaluated using logistic regression and restricted cubic spline analysis, both of which were adjusted for demographic and comorbid risk predictors. When analyzing BSA and BMI as categorical variables, patients were grouped according to BSA quintiles and the World Health Organization (WHO) BMI categories. RESULTS A total of 130,428 patients were included based on our eligibility criteria, of which 85,394 (65.5%) were men. Patients were typically hypertensive (87.8%), diabetic (50.4%), and overweight (63.0% over 25 kg/m2). Patients with a high BMI or BSA typically presented at a younger age and with greater preoperative administration of drugs (statin, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, anticoagulant, and beta blocker). Our results indicate that BSA and BMI are inversely associated with postoperative risk of all-cause morbidity, mortality, and cardiac complications. This finding was displayed when analyzing BMI or BSA as a continuous variable or when indexing patients into BMI or BSA groups. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggests that the obesity paradox persists in patients with PAD when using either BMI or BSA as anthropometric measures. Future studies with a prospective design and utilizing newer anthropometric indices should be conducted to fully verify the presence of this phenomenon.

Abstract
AIMS To assess the association between sociodemographic and clinical factors with body mass index (BMI) in a population at risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Bogotá and Barranquilla, Colombia. METHODS This cross-sectional study used data from the PREDICOL Study. Participants with a FINDRISC ≥ 12 who underwent an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) were included in the study (n=1166). The final analytical sample size was 1101 participants. Those with missing data were excluded from the analysis (n=65). The main outcome was body mass index (BMI), which was categorized as normal, overweight, and obese. We utilized unadjusted and adjusted ordinal logistic regression analysis to calculate odds ratios (OR) and 95 % confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS The prevalence of overweight and obesity was 41 % (n=449) and 47 % (n=517), respectively. Participants with a 2-hour glucose ≥139 mg/dl had 1.71 times higher odds of being overweight or obese (regarding normal weight) than participants with normal 2-hour glucose values. In addition, being a woman, waist circumference altered, and blood pressure >120/80 mmHg were statistically significantly associated with a higher BMI. CONCLUSION Strategies to control glycemia, blood pressure, and central adiposity are needed in people at risk of T2D. Future studies should be considered with a territorial and gender focus, considering behavioral, and sociocultural patterns.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To examine whether prior gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with prevalent coronary heart disease (CHD), cerebrovascular disease (CeVD) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD), and all-cause mortality, in community-based women with type 2 diabetes. METHODS Baseline prevalences of CHD/CeVD/PAD/prior GDM were determined in 718 females (mean ± SD age 65.5 ± 11.9 years) from the Fremantle Diabetes Study Phase II. Deaths between baseline (2008-2011) and end-2016 were ascertained. Cox regression identified predictors of mortality with GDM as a candidate variable. RESULTS Compared to the 673 women without GDM, the 39 (5.4 %) with prior GDM were younger, more likely Aboriginal, smokers and obese, had longer diabetes duration and higher HbA1c levels, and were more dyslipidemic (P ≤ 0.046). Prevalences of CHD (24.6 versus 23.1 %), CeVD (7.5 % versus 2.6 %) and PAD (27.5 % versus 23.7 %) were not significantly different in those without versus with prior GDM (P ≥ 0.35). There were 116 deaths (16.2 %) during 6.8 ± 1.6 years of follow-up. Age, Aboriginal ethnicity, marital status, current smoking, heart rate, estimated glomerular filtration rate, CHD and PAD were independently associated with all-cause mortality (P ≤ 0.023); GDM status did not add to the most parsimonious model (P = 0.62). CONCLUSIONS Prior GDM does not increase CVD risk or all-cause mortality in women with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Background Epidemiologic findings suggest that measures of body fat distribution predict health outcomes independent of the overall body fat assessed by body mass index (BMI). This study aimed to evaluate the associations of overall and regional body fat with the severity of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis in type 2 diabetic patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Methods Bioelectric impedance analysis and two newly developed anthropometric indices, namely, A Body Shape Index (ABSI) and Body Roundness Index (BRI), were used to estimate the body fat. Based on fibroscan parameters, significant hepatic fibrosis and severe steatosis were defined as ≥F2 and >66%, respectively. Results Higher total body fat (odds ratio [OR] 1.107, 95% confidence intervals (CI) 1.038-1.182, p = 0.002), trunk fat (OR 1.136, 95% CI 1.034-1.248, p = 0.008) and leg fat (OR 1.381, 95% CI 1.139-1.674, p = 0.001) were associated with liver fibrosis. However, in contrast to the total body fat (OR 1.088, 95% CI 1.017-1.164, p = 0.014) and leg fat (OR 1.317, 95% CI 1.066-1.628, p = 0.011), the trunk fat was not associated with severe hepatic steatosis. BRI performed better than trunk, leg and total body fat in predicting hepatic steatosis (OR 2.186, 95% CI 1.370-3.487, p = 0.001) and fibrosis (OR 2.132, 95% CI 1.419-3.204, p < 0.001). Moreover, the trunk to leg fat ratio and ABSI were not independent predictors of either steatosis or fibrosis (p > 0.05). Conclusion BRI revealed a superior predictive ability for identifying the degree of hepatic steatosis and stiffness than other obesity indices. Additionally, higher levels of adiposity in the trunk, legs, and overall body were linked to an increased risk of developing liver fibrosis. Although trunk fat did not show an association with severe hepatic steatosis, an increase in leg and total fat was related to liver steatosis.

Abstract
Background: This study evaluates insulin resistance prevalence in young females without diabetes, assessing risk factors and adiposity indices for early detection of cardiometabolic disorders. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted, involving 282 females aged 18-35 years from suburban and rural areas of Sri Lanka. Anthropometric measurements [height, weight, waist circumference (WC)] were obtained and biochemical parameters [fasting glucose, insulin, insulin resistance (IR), total cholesterol, high-density lipoproteins, (HDL), low-density lipoproteins, triglycerides] were measured. The anthropometric and biochemical data were compared between the groups of normal weight controls and overweight/obese cases, as well as between females with or without IR. Results: The prevalence of IR in controls and cases were 48.6% and 57.1%, respectively. Both groups had mean Homeostasis Model Assessment-IR values greater than the normal cutoff value of 2.5. Females with IR showed higher prevalence of dyslipidemia than those without IR. Compared to the controls (2.81%), the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) was substantially greater among cases (46.42%). Both groups showed a statistically significant association between IR and MetS, but the association was considerably stronger in cases [r = 0.616, odds ratio (OR) >8] than in controls (r = 0.175, OR >1). Controls exhibited lower HDL levels, hypertriglyceridemia, and elevated IR levels (P < 0.05), and their ORs for acquiring MetS were >2, <1, and >3, respectively. Importantly, overweight/obese cases exhibited a significant association (P < 0.05) with all the MetS risk variables. Visceral adiposity index (VAI) proves to be a precise measurement for identifying IR and cardiovascular disease (CVD) among young females (Z = -3.651), surpassing the accuracy of other indices. Body mass index, body round index, a body shape index, and WC were also reliable measurements to assess IR and the risk of CVD (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The study underscores the importance of assessing IR in nondiabetic young females to identify early cardiometabolic risks. VAI emerges as a precise measurement for identifying IR and CVD risk, surpassing the accuracy of other indices.

Abstract
Our objective was to investigate the relationship between zinc, selenium, and magnesium status and markers of metabolically healthy and unhealthy obesity phenotypes. This was a cross-sectional study with 140 women: metabolically healthy obese women (n = 35), metabolically unhealthy obese women (n = 28), and normal-weight women (n = 77). We have calculated the body mass index, waist-hip ratio, waist-height ratio and some adiposity indices. Additionally, we evaluated endocrine-metabolic parameters and estimated the dietary intake of energy, macronutrients, zinc, selenium, and magnesium. The mineral concentrations in plasma, erythrocytes, and urine were assessed. In obese patients, there was a significant decrease in dietary zinc, selenium, and magnesium intake per kilogram of body weight, as well as lower mineral concentrations in both plasma and erythrocytes. Additionally, these patients exhibited higher urinary mineral levels compared to the control group, regardless of whether they had healthy or unhealthy phenotypes. We observed a significant correlation between deficiencies in zinc, selenium, and magnesium and obesity-associated metabolic disorders, including dyslipidemias and redox status disturbances. This study highlights a connection between deficiencies in zinc, selenium, and magnesium and metabolic disorders linked to obesity, including dyslipidemias, alterations in redox status, and thyroid hormonal dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a growing chronic disease that can lead to disability and early death. This study aimed to establish a predictive model for the 10-year incidence of T2DM based on novel anthropometric indices. METHODS This was a prospective cohort study comparing people with (n = 1256) and without (n = 5193) diabetes mellitus in phase II of the Mashhad Stroke and Heart Atherosclerotic Disorder (MASHAD) study. The association of several anthropometric indices in phase I, including Body Mass Index (BMI), Body Adiposity Index (BAI), Abdominal Volume Index (AVI), Visceral Adiposity Index (VAI), Weight-Adjusted-Waist Index (WWI), Body Roundness Index (BRI), Body Surface Area (BSA), Conicity Index (C-Index) and Lipid Accumulation Product (LAP) with T2DM incidence (in phase II) were examined; using Logistic Regression (LR) and Decision Tree (DT) analysis. RESULTS BMI followed by VAI and LAP were the best predictors of T2DM incidence. Participants with BMI < 21.25 kg/m2 and VAI ≤ 5.9 had a lower chance of diabetes than those with higher BMI and VAI levels (0.033 vs. 0.967 incident rate). For BMI > 25 kg/m2, the chance of diabetes rapidly increased (OR = 2.27). CONCLUSIONS BMI, VAI, and LAP were the best predictors of T2DM incidence.

Correlation between tooth decay and insulin resistance in normal weight males prompts a role for myo-inositol as a regenerative factor in dentistry and oral surgery: a feasibility study. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2024; 12:1374135. [PMID: 39144484 PMCID: PMC11321979 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2024.1374135] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 08/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Background In an era of precision and stratified medicine, homogeneity in population-based cohorts, stringent causative entry, and pattern analysis of datasets are key elements to investigate medical treatments. Adhering to these principles, we collected in vivo and in vitro data pointing to an insulin-sensitizing/insulin-mimetic effect of myo-inositol (MYO) relevant to cell regeneration in dentistry and oral surgery. Confirmation of this possibility was obtained by in silico analysis of the relation between in vivo and in vitro results (the so-called bed-to-benchside reverse translational approach). Results Fourteen subjects over the 266 screened were young adult, normal weight, euglycemic, sedentary males having normal appetite, free diet, with a regular three-times-a-day eating schedule, standard dental hygiene, and negligible malocclusion/enamel defects. Occlusal caries were detected by fluorescence videoscanning, whereas body composition and energy balance were estimated with plicometry, predictive equations, and handgrip. Statistically significant correlations (Pearson r coefficient) were found between the number of occlusal caries and anthropometric indexes predicting insulin resistance (IR) in relation to the abdominal/visceral fat mass, fat-free mass, muscular strength, and energy expenditure adjusted to the fat and muscle stores. This indicated a role for IR in affecting dentin reparative processes. Consistently, in vitro administration of MYO to HUVEC and Swiss NIH3T3 cells in concentrations corresponding to those administered in vivo to reduce IR resulted in statistically significant cell replication (ANOVA/Turkey tests), suggesting that MYO has the potential to counteract inhibitory effects of IR on dental vascular and stromal cells turnover. Finally, in in silico experiments, quantitative evaluation (WOE and information value) of a bioinformatic Clinical Outcome Pathway confirmed that in vitro trophic effects of MYO could be transferred in vivo with high predictability, providing robust credence of its efficacy for oral health. Conclusion Our reverse bed-to-benchside data indicate that MYO might antagonize the detrimental effects of IR on tooth decay. This provides feasibility for clinical studies on MYO as a regenerative factor in dentistry and oral surgery, including dysmetabolic/aging conditions, bone reconstruction in oral destructive/necrotic disorders, dental implants, and for empowering the efficacy of a number of tissue engineering methodologies in dentistry and oral surgery.

Abstract
Background Regular exercise has been widely acknowledged for its numerous health benefits, including improvements in physical fitness, body function, and mental well-being. However, excessive exercise and unhealthy dietary patterns can lead to adverse effects on individuals' physical and psychological well-being. This study aimed to examine the association of dietary patterns, exercise addiction, and eating disorders among physically active young adults. Method In this cross-sectional study, a total of 200 physically active young adults aged 18-35 years were included. The participants' dietary intake was assessed using a validated semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) consisting of 80 food items. To determine dietary patterns, factor analysis was employed. Exercise addiction was evaluated using The Exercise Addiction Inventory (EAI) and Exercise Dependence Questionnaire (EDQ), and eating disorders were assessed using The Eating Disorder Examination-Questionnaire Short (EDE-QS). Result Three main dietary patterns were identified: western, healthy, and traditional dietary patterns. The western dietary pattern was associated with increased waist-to-hip ratio (P = .01) that remained significant after adjustment for confounders (eg, age, gender, BMI, and physical activity P = .03), while the adherence to traditional dietary pattern was linked to higher waist circumference and body shape index (P < .05). Participants that followed the healthy dietary pattern showed a higher score of EAI and body shape concern (P = .04). Furthermore, in structural equation modelling (SEM), eating disorder was identified as a significant positive predictor of exercise addiction (r = .17, P < .05). Conclusion According to our finding, those with the higher adherence to healthy dietary pattern had higher scores of exercise addiction and body shape concern. Also, eating disorder was a potential predictor of exercise addiction among young physically active individuals. Further research and targeted interventions are needed to better understand these complex relationships and develop effective strategies to promote healthy behaviors and mitigate the risk of adverse outcomes.

Abstract
This study investigated the relationship between A body shape index (ABSI) and bone mineral density (BMD) in older Americans and found a negative linear association, which was particularly pronounced in diabetic population. An early focus on ABSI in the elderly population will help in the prevention of osteoporosis. OBJECTIVE A body shape index (ABSI) is an abdominal obesity index developed based on epidemiological statistics and high ABSI indicates that waist circumference (WC) is higher than expected for a given height and weight and corresponds to a more central concentration of body volume. The objective of this study was to determine whether there is a linear or nonlinear relationship between ABSI and total femur bone mineral density (BMD) in older Americans and whether the relationship between the ABSI and total femur BMD varies across populations. METHODS This cross-sectional study was based on data from the 2007-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Weighted multiple linear regression, restricted cubic spline (RCS) curves, subgroup analysis, and interaction tests were used to examine the association between ABSI and total femur BMD. RESULTS This study included 2505 older adults. This study found a negative linear correlation between ABSI and total femur BMD (β = -3.2, 95%CI: -5.0, -1.4, p < 0.001). When participants were grouped according to quartiles of ABSI, those in the upper quartile had lower total femur BMD compared to those in the bottom quartile of ABSI. This negative association remained consistent across gender, age, education level, smoking, physical activity and BMI subgroups. However, in the diabetes subgroup, ABSI showed a stronger negative association with total femur BMD. CONCLUSIONS The study shows a negative linear association between ABSI and total femur BMD in older Americans, with this negative association being stronger in the diabetic population.

Abstract
Background Traditional anthropometric measures, including body mass index (BMI), are insufficient for evaluating gallstone risk. This study investigated the association between novel anthropometric indices and gallstone risk among 6,848 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in the United States. Methods Measures calculated included weight (WT), BMI, waist circumference (WC), waist-to-height ratio (WtHR), conicity index (CI), A Body Shape Index (ABSI), Body Roundness Index (BRI), Abdominal Volume Index (AVI), and Weight-adjusted Waist Index (WWI). Logistic regression and smooth curve fitting assessed the relationships between these indices and gallstones, complemented by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis to evaluate their discriminative power. Results The results indicated significant differences between study groups, with a positive and independent correlation identified between gallstones and all measures except ABSI. Specifically, per 1 SD increase in WC, WT, BMI, WtHR, and AVI was associated with a 57%, 59%, 52%, 53%, and 53% increased risk of gallstones, respectively. Dose-response analysis confirmed a positive correlation between these indices and gallstone risk. ROC analysis highlighted WtHR and BRI as having superior discriminative abilities (AUC = 0.6703). Further, among participants with a BMI < 30 kg/m2, elevated levels of WT, WtHR, CI, BRI, and WWI significantly increased the risk of gallstones (P < 0.001). Likewise, elevated BMI heightened the risk at low levels of WT, WC, WtHR, BRI, AVI, and CI (P < 0.001). Conclusion This study supports the positive association between various anthropometric indicators and gallstones, recommending that newer anthropometric indices be considered more extensively to enhance gallstone prevention and treatment strategies.

Abstract
Elucidating the mechanisms by which late-life neurodegeneration causes cognitive decline requires understanding why some individuals are more resilient than others to the effects of brain change on cognition (cognitive reserve). Currently, there is no way of measuring cognitive reserve that is valid (e.g. capable of moderating brain-cognition associations), widely accessible (e.g. does not require neuroimaging and large sample sizes), and able to provide insight into resilience-promoting mechanisms. To address these limitations, this study sought to determine whether a machine learning approach to combining standard clinical variables could (i) predict a residual-based cognitive reserve criterion standard and (ii) prospectively moderate brain-cognition associations. In a training sample combining data from the University of California (UC) Davis and the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative-2 (ADNI-2) cohort (N = 1665), we operationalized cognitive reserve using an MRI-based residual approach. An eXtreme Gradient Boosting machine learning algorithm was trained to predict this residual reserve index (RRI) using three models: Minimal (basic clinical data, such as age, education, anthropometrics, and blood pressure), Extended (Minimal model plus cognitive screening, word reading, and depression measures), and Full [Extended model plus Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) and Everyday Cognition (ECog) scale]. External validation was performed in an independent sample of ADNI 1/3/GO participants (N = 1640), which examined whether the effects of brain change on cognitive change were moderated by the machine learning models' cognitive reserve estimates. The three machine learning models differed in their accuracy and validity. The Minimal model did not correlate strongly with the criterion standard (r = 0.23) and did not moderate the effects of brain change on cognitive change. In contrast, the Extended and Full models were modestly correlated with the criterion standard (r = 0.49 and 0.54, respectively) and prospectively moderated longitudinal brain-cognition associations, outperforming other cognitive reserve proxies (education, word reading). The primary difference between the Minimal model-which did not perform well as a measure of cognitive reserve-and the Extended and Full models-which demonstrated good accuracy and validity-is the lack of cognitive performance and informant-report data in the Minimal model. This suggests that basic clinical variables like anthropometrics, vital signs, and demographics are not sufficient for estimating cognitive reserve. Rather, the most accurate and valid estimates of cognitive reserve were obtained when cognitive performance data-ideally augmented by informant-reported functioning-was used. These results indicate that a dynamic and accessible proxy for cognitive reserve can be generated for individuals without neuroimaging data and gives some insight into factors that may promote resilience.

Novel anthropometric indices are superior adiposity indexes to portend visual impairment in middle-aged and older Chinese population. BMJ Open Ophthalmol 2024; 9:e001664. [PMID: 39009464 PMCID: PMC11253769 DOI: 10.1136/bmjophth-2024-001664] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate differential associations of traditional and novel adiposity indices with visual impairment (VI) in the middle-aged and older Chinese population. METHODS AND ANALYSIS Based on the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, 7750 Chinese older adults aged over 45 were included at baseline 2011, and 4133 participants who accomplished all three interviews from 2011 to 2015 were adapted for longitudinal analyses. We enrolled six adiposity indices, including the body mass index (BMI), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI), a body shape index (ABSI), body roundness index (BRI) and conicity index (ConI). Visual status and other covariates included sociodemographic characteristics, medical supports and lifestyle-related factors. Cross-sectional correlations were assessed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. For longitudinal analysis, generalised linear models with generalised estimating equations were used to determine the association between time-varying adiposity and visual status. RESULTS Higher levels of WHtR/WWI/ABSI/BRI/ConI were significantly associated with an increased prevalence of VI, whereas a higher BMI was associated with a decreased prevalence of VI. Only WWI was significantly related to the prevalence of VI after adjustment for multiple confounders in both cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses (all p values <0.05). The multivariable-adjusted OR (95% CI) of VI associated with the highest (vs lowest) quintile of WWI was 1.900 (1.407 to 2.565). CONCLUSION WWI is a reliable alternative adiposity index that exhibits a dose-response association with the prevalence of VI in the Chinese population. The WWI-VI correlation may eliminate the obesity paradox in the ophthalmic epidemiological area and indicate the detrimental impact of changes in body composition on VI.

Prediction of visceral adipose tissue magnitude using a new model based on simple clinical measurements. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2024; 15:1411678. [PMID: 39119005 PMCID: PMC11307439 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2024.1411678] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Aims Waist circumference (WC) is a reliable obesity surrogate but may not distinguish between visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue. Our aim was to develop a novel sex-specific model to estimate the magnitude of visceral adipose tissue measured by computed tomography (CT-VAT). Methods The model was initially formulated through the integration of anthropometric measurements, laboratory data, and CT-VAT within a study group (n=185), utilizing the Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (MARS) methodology. Subsequently, its correlation with CT-VAT was examined in an external validation group (n=50). The accuracy of the new model in estimating increased CT-VAT (>130 cm2) was compared with WC, body mass index (BMI), waist-hip ratio (WHR), visceral adiposity index (VAI), a body shape index (ABSI), lipid accumulation product (LAP), body roundness index (BRI), and metabolic score for visceral fat (METS-VF) in the study group. Additionally, the new model's accuracy in identifying metabolic syndrome was evaluated in our Metabolic Healthiness Discovery Cohort (n=430). Results The new model comprised WC, gender, BMI, and hip circumference, providing the highest predictive accuracy in estimating increased CT-VAT in men (AUC of 0.96 ± 0.02), outperforming other indices. In women, the AUC was 0.94 ± 0.03, which was significantly higher than that of VAI, WHR, and ABSI but similar to WC, BMI, LAP, BRI, and METS-VF. It's demonstrated high ability for identifying metabolic syndrome with an AUC of 0.76 ± 0.03 (p<0.001). Conclusion The new model is a valuable indicator of CT-VAT, especially in men, and it exhibits a strong predictive capability for identifying metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is closely associated with adverse cardiometabolic outcomes. The objective of this study was to identify practical methods that could enable the effective identification of MetS based on anthropometric indices. The basis of our study involved retrospective database obtained from routine medical prophylactic examinations. This was a cross-sectional study on the health status of male workers employed in hazardous working conditions at industrial enterprises in the Ural region conducted in 2019. A total of 347 male workers employed under hazardous working conditions were investigated. The presence of MetS was established by a healthcare professional in accordance with the guidelines of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). Simple linear regression was used to evaluate the associations between anthropometric indices and MetS incidence. Logistic regression was used to determine the odds ratios of MetS in relation to increases in anthropometric indices. ROC curves were calculated to compare the ability of each anthropometric index to predict MetS and to determine the diagnostic thresholds of the indicators considered. According to the IDF criteria, 36.3% of the workers had MetS. A direct relationship was found between the individual components of MetS and the anthropometric indices studied. The highest OR was shown by the Body Roundness Index (BRI) of 2.235 (95% CI 1.796-2.781). For different age quartiles, the optimal cut-off values for predicting MetS were as follows: BRI, 4.1-4.4 r.u.; body shape index (ABSI), 0.080-0.083 m11/6 kg-2/3; and lipid accumulation product (LAP), 49.7-70.5 cm mmol/l. The most significant associations with MetS were observed where the values were greater than these cut-off points (Se = 97.4%). The results of this study demonstrated the rapid use of new anthropometric indicators, which have shown good predictive ability and are quite easy to use.

Abstract
PURPOSE The roles of metabolic indices in predicting chronic kidney disease (CKD) were lacking. This study aimed to examine the concomitant impact of metabolic and novel anthropometric indices on incident CKD in the Chinese populations. METHODS This prospective cohort study included 1825 males and 2218 females aged between 45 and 85 years, derived from the ongoing prospectively cohort of China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), from 2011 to 2015. The outcome was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2. RESULTS During the 5-years follow-up period, 3.0% (55/1825) of males and 4.1% (90/2218) of the females developed CKD. After multivariable adjustment, elevated triglyceride (TG), low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), serum uric acid (sUA), elevated visceral fat index (VFI), elevated body shape index (BSI) and elevated body roundness index (BRI) in males, and sUA, and BRI in females were the independent predictors for CKD. Composite scores, composed of sUA, history of cardiovascular disease (CVD), waist circumstance (WC), HDL-C, and BRI in males and sUA, hypertension, and BRI in females were constructed that could accurately predict CKD. CONCLUSION Our study found that elevated levels of TG, sUA, BSI, BRI, and diminished HDL in males and elevated levels of sUA, and BRI in females, are indicative of the incident CKD. The composite score, integrating a history of disease, metabolic indices, and noval anthropometric indices, could accurately differentiate individuals with and without incident CKD, proving useful for CKD care and management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the predictive value of relative fat mass compared to body mass index for hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and heightened cardiovascular risk in a cohort of community-dwelling older adults from the Longevity Check-up 7+ cohort. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cross-sectional study. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Hyperlipidemia was defined as total cholesterol ≥200 mg/dL or ongoing lipid-lowering treatment. Diabetes was defined either as self-reported diagnosis or fasting blood glucose >126 mg/dL or a random blood glucose >200 mg/dL. Hypertension was defined as blood pressure ≥ 140/90 mmHg or requiring daily antihypertensive medications. Heightened cardiovascular risk was operationalized as having at least two of these conditions. RESULTS Analyses were conducted in 1990 participants (mean age 73.2 ± 6.0 years; 54.1 % women). Higher proportions of men than women had hypertension and diabetes, while hyperlipidemia was more prevalent in women. Receiver operating curve analysis indicated relative fat mass was a better predictor of hypertension in women and diabetes in both sexes. Body mass index performed better in predicting hyperlipidemia in women. Relative fat mass thresholds of ≥27 % for men and ≥40 % for women were identified as optimal indicators of heightened cardiovascular risk and so were used to defined high adiposity. Moderate correlations were found between high adiposity or body mass index ≥25 kg/m2 and the presence of hypertension, hyperlipidemia and heightened cardiovascular risk, while a strong correlation was found with diabetes. Logistic regression analysis highlighted significant associations between high adiposity and increased odds of hypertension, diabetes, and heightened cardiovascular risk. CONCLUSIONS Proposed cut-offs for relative fat mass were more reliable indices than the usual cut-offs for body mass index for identifying individuals at heightened cardiovascular risk. Our findings support the role of anthropometric measures in evaluating body composition and the associated metabolic and cardiovascular conditions in older adults.

Prediction the changes of anthropometric indices following a weight-loss diet in overweight and obese women by mathematical models. Sci Rep 2024; 14:14491. [PMID: 38914732 PMCID: PMC11196268 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-65586-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 06/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Estimating the change rates in body size following the weight loss programs is very important in the compliance of those programs. Although, there is enough evidence on the significant association of body weight change with the other anthropometric indices and/ or body composition, there is so limited studies that have depicted this relationship as mathematical formulas. Therefore, the present research designed to use a mathematical model to predict changes of anthropometric indices following a weight-loss diet in the overweight and obese women. In this longitudinal study, 212 overweight/obese women who received an individualized low-calorie diet (LCD) were selected and followed-up for five months. Anthropometric measurements such as weight, waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC), and body composition (lean mass and fat mass) were performed. Then, body mass index, waist to hip ratio (WHR), waist to height ratio (WHtR), a body shape index (ABSI), abdominal volume index (AVI), and body adiposity index (BAI) were calculated using the related formula. Following the LCD led to the substantial and consistent changes in various anthropometric indices over time. All of these anthropometric variations were significantly related with the percent change (PC) of body weight except than WHR. Moreover, according to the mathematical formulas, weight loss was closely related to the decrease of WC (PC-WC = - 0.120 + 0.703 × PC-WT), HC (PC-HC = - 0.350 + 0.510 × PC-WT), body fat percentage (PC-Body Fat = - 0.019 + 0.915 × PC-WT), WHtR (PC-WHtR = - 0.113 + 0.702 × PC-WT), and improvements in ABSI (PC-ABSI = - 0.112 + 0.034 × PC-WT) and AVI (PC-AVI = - 0.324 + 1.320 × PC-WT). The decreasing rates of WC, HC, body fat percentage, WHtR, ABSI, and AVI in relation to the weight loss were clinically and statistically significant. This means that a healthy weight lowering diet would be accompanied by decreasing the body fat, body size and also the risk of morbidities.

The association between dietary inflammatory index with some cardio-metabolic risk indices among the patients with type 2 diabetes from Hoveyzeh cohort study: a cross-sectional study. BMC Endocr Disord 2024; 24:91. [PMID: 38890603 PMCID: PMC11186237 DOI: 10.1186/s12902-024-01624-2] [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: 03/01/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The dietary inflammatory index (DII) serves as a tool to assess the inflammatory impact of an individual's diet. This study aimed to investigate the association between DII and some cardio-metabolic risk indices among patients with T2DM. METHODS Data from the Hoveyzeh Cohort Study, encompassing 2045 adults with T2DM, were analyzed. DII scores were calculated based on food frequency questionnaires. Anthropometric measurements and biochemical tests were performed to assess cardio-metabolic risk factors. RESULTS Higher DII scores were positively associated with elevated triglyceride levels, triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, lipid accumulation product (LAP), anthropometric indices including a body shape index (ABSI), body roundness index (BRI), body mass index (BMI), hip, waist circumferences (WC), and waist-to-height ratio (all Ptrend < 0.05). Notably, no significant association was observed between DII and fasting blood sugar (FBS) levels (Ptrend > 0.05). Additionally, dietary intake analysis revealed a negative correlation between DII scores and intake of fiber, fruits, vegetables, legumes, fish, seafood, dairy products, magnesium, and vitamins A, C, D, and E (all Ptrend < 0.05). Conversely, higher DII scores were associated with increased consumption of red meat, processed meat, refined cereals, potatoes, and soft drinks (all Ptrend < 0.05). CONCLUSION This study underscores the critical link between dietary inflammation, assessed by the DII score, and a multitude of cardio-metabolic risk factors in patients with T2DM. Notably, while the study did not find a significant association between DII and fasting blood sugar levels, it identified robust associations with novel anthropometric and biochemical indices indicative of cardio-metabolic risk. These findings highlight the potential of dietary interventions as a cornerstone strategy for managing T2DM and mitigating its associated complications.

Abstract
PURPOSE Previous studies have suggested that obesity defined by body mass index(BMI) is a protective factor for bone mineral density(BMD), but have overlooked the potential influence of different types of obesity. This study aims to evaluate the correlation between abdominal obesity index A Body Shape Index(ABSI) and adolescent bone density, and analyze the relationship between abdominal obesity and bone metabolism. METHODS A total of 1557 adolescent participants were included in NHANES from 2007 to 2018. Calculate the ABSI using a specific formula that takes into account waist circumference and BMI. A weighted multiple linear regression model is used to evaluate the linear correlation between ABSI and BMD. Forest plots are used to analyze the correlations between subgroups, and cubic splines are limited to evaluate the nonlinear correlations and saturation effects between ABSI and BMD. RESULTS After adjusting for confounding factors, there was a significant linear correlation (P < 0.01) between ABSI and femoral BMD, both as a continuous variable and an ordered categorical variable. The restrictive cubic spline curve indicates a significant nonlinear correlation and saturation effect between adolescent ABSI and BMD. CONCLUSION Research has shown a significant negative correlation between ABSI and BMD at the four detection sites of the femur, and this correlation may vary slightly due to age, race, family income, and different detection sites. The research results indicate that compared to overall body weight, fat distribution and content may be more closely related to bone metabolism.

PURPOSE This study aimed to assess the relationship between A Body Shape Index (ABSI) and cognitive impairment among older adults in the United States. METHODS This cross-sectional study analyzed cognitive function in 2,752 individuals aged 60 and older using data from the 2011-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Cognitive assessments were conducted using the Immediate Recall Test (IRT), Delayed Recall Test (DRT), Animal Fluency Test (AFT), and Digit Symbol Substitution Test (DSST). A Body Shape Index (ABSI) was calculated from waist circumference (WC), weight, and height. The relationship between ABSI and cognitive outcomes was examined through multifactorial linear regression, smooth curve fitting, and subgroup and interaction analyses. RESULTS With complete data, 2752 persons 60 and older participated in the study. After adjusting for covariables, these results showed statistically significant negative relationships between ABSI, IRT, and DSST scores. The negative correlation between DSST and ABSI is more substantial in males than females. There is less of a negative link between ABSI, AFT, and DSST among drinkers who consume 12 or more drinks annually compared to those who consume less. Furthermore, compared to individuals without high blood pressure(HBP), those who suffered HBP showed a more significant negative connection between ABSI and AFT. CONCLUSION Lower cognitive function was linked to higher ABSI.

The association between frailty and body composition among the elderly: Birjand Longitudinal Aging Study (BLAS). J Diabetes Metab Disord 2024; 23:967-976. [PMID: 38932829 PMCID: PMC11196472 DOI: 10.1007/s40200-023-01373-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 12/09/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Background This study aims to assess the possible relationship between frailty and anthropometric indices in older adults using data from the first phase of the Birjand Longitudinal Aging Study (BLAS). Methods In this cross-sectional study, we assessed the association between frailty (Frailty index (FI) and Fried frailty phenotype) and body composition indices in 1364 participants aged ≥ 60 years (September 2018 to April 2019). Analysis was conducted using one-way ANOVA and ordinal logistic regression. Results Participants were categorized as frail (n = 164), non-frail (n = 415), and pre-frail (n = 785) based on FI. A significant positive association was observed between the frailty and body mass index (BMI) (OR: 1.04, 95% CI:1.01- 1.07), waist circumference (WC) (OR: 1.02, 95% CI: 1.01- 1.03), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) (OR: 2.36, 95% CI 1.05- 5.27) and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) (OR: 1.27, 95%CI: 1.09- 1.47). Body shape index, body roundness index, and body adiposity index showed no significant association with frailty. Moreover, a BMI greater than 29 kg/m2 increased the odds of frailty and prefrailty by 79% (OR = 1.79, 95%CI = 1.30- 2.46, P < 0.001). Conclusion Results of this study showed that the risk of frailty increases as BMI and abdominal obesity indices increase. Therefore, BMI and abdominal obesity indices (WC, WHR, and WHtR) could serve as suitable tools for evaluating frailty in the elderly. However, additional studies are needed to evaluate the utility of the newly developed anthropometric indices in older adults.

Ku HC, Cheng E, Cheng CF. A body shape index (ABSI) but not body mass index (BMI) is associated with prostate cancer-specific mortality: Evidence from the US NHANES database. Prostate 2024; 84:797-806. [PMID: 38558412 DOI: 10.1002/pros.24698] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2023] [Revised: 03/07/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Prostate cancer (PCa) is a common malignancy in males and obesity may play a role in its development and progression. Associations between visceral obesity measured by a body shape index (ABSI) and PCa mortality have not been thoroughly investigated. This study assessed the associations between ABSI, body mass index (BMI), and long-term PCa-specific mortality using a nationally representative US database. METHODS This population-based longitudinal study collected data of males aged ≥40 years diagnosed with PCa and who underwent surgery and/or radiation from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database 2001-2010. All included participants were followed through the end of 2019 using the National Center for Health Statistics Linked Mortality File. Associations between PCa-specific mortality, BMI, and ABSI were determined using Cox proportional hazards regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS Data of 294 men (representing 1,393,857 US nationals) were analyzed. After adjusting for confounders, no significant associations were found between BMI (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] = 1.06, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.97-1.16, p = 0.222), continuous ABSI (aHR = 1.29, 95% CI: 0.83-2.02, p = 0.253), or ABSI in category (Q4 vs. Q1-Q3: aHR = 1.52, 95% CI: 0.72-3.24, p = 0.265), and greater risk of PCa-specific mortality. However, among participants who had been diagnosed within 4 years, the highest ABSI quartile but not in BMI was significantly associated with greater risk for PCa-specific mortality (Q4 vs. Q1-Q3: aHR = 5.34, 95% CI: 2.26-12.62, p = 0.001). In ROC analysis for this subgroup, the area under the curve of ABSI alone for predicting PCa-specific mortality was 0.638 (95% CI: 0.448-0.828), reaching 0.729 (95% CI: 0.490-0.968 when combined with other covariates. CONCLUSIONS In US males with PCa diagnosed within 4 years, high ABSI but not BMI is independently associated with increased PCa-specific mortality.

Association between DASH and novel atherogenic risk factors, anthropometric indices and foot ulcer indicators in type 2 diabetic patients with foot ulcer: a cross-sectional study. J Diabetes Metab Disord 2024; 23:1315-1327. [PMID: 38932905 PMCID: PMC11196542 DOI: 10.1007/s40200-024-01427-1] [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: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Purpose Diabetes can cause nerve damage, vascular issues, and reduced blood flow to organs such as the feet, leading to foot deformities and ulcers due to high glucose levels. A healthy dietary pattern like DASH can improve insulin sensitivity and weight loss. Due to limited data and rare evidence, our study aims to investigate the relationship between DASH diet adherence and anthropometric, cardiovascular, and foot ulcer indicators. Methods The study included 339 diabetic patients with foot ulcers (122 females and 217 males). The study gathered data on patient dietary intake, anthropometric measurements, biochemistry, foot ulcers, and novel atherogenic risk factors per international definitions. Results The average BMI of the participants was 29.2 ± 5.0, 28.1 ± 4.3, and 28.2 ± 4.2 in the tertiles of DASH index (P-value: 0.18). By increasing the adherence to the DASH index, the monofilament score did not change significantly OR: 1.47; CI: (0.81-2.67). Also, foot ulcer area did not change significantly between DASH tertiles OR: 1.01; CI: (0.56-1.83). Atherogenic risk factors also decreased among the DASH tertiles, but statistically not significant. Conclusion DASH adherence did not change neuropathy score and cholindex and cardiovascular risk factors significantly and has no significant effect on foot ulcer size.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiorespiratory function is one of the key health indicators that promote good health. Knowing the correlation between body mass index (BMI) and cardiorespiratory functioning might assist in the creation of evidence-based therapies that focus on addressing difficulties associated with obesity. OBJECTIVE To assess the correlation between BMI and cardiorespiratory functions among medical students at Northern Border University. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted among medical students at Northern Border University, Saudi Arabia. The blood pressure (BP), respiratory rate (RR), heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), pulse pressure (PP), and BMI of the students were measured. RESULTS The mean age of the students was 17.1 ± 1.9 years. Nearly 40% of students were overweight or obese. Our study revealed a significant positive correlation between BMI and BP, RR, tidal volume (TV), and MAP. CONCLUSIONS The correlation analysis of our study revealed a significant positive correlation of BMI with BP, RR, TV, and MAP.
