Non-Obese Type 2 Diabetes with a History of Being an Extremely Preterm Small-for-Gestational-Age Infant without Early Adiposity Rebound. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:ijerph19148560. [PMID: 35886410 PMCID: PMC9317845 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19148560] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2022] [Revised: 07/11/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Adiposity rebound (AR), which is defined as a situation in which the body mass index (BMI) starts to increase after infancy, is a predictive marker of future development of type 2 diabetes. The patient was a 20-year-old male. He was born at 28 gestational weeks with a birthweight of 642 g (−3.20 standard deviation, small-for-gestational age [SGA]). AR during early childhood or obesity in later childhood was not observed. At the onset of type 2 diabetes (20 years of age), his BMI, body fat percentage, and body fat mass were within normal ranges (20.4, 18.4% and 10.8 kg, respectively). However, his muscle mass was 44.7 kg, with low muscle mass of the trunk and upper limbs, which was lower than the standard reference, indicating that myogenic insulin resistance was involved in the development of non-obese type 2 diabetes. This case report describes a patient with no presentation of AR and obesity during childhood, who was born extremely preterm SGA, developed non-obese type 2 diabetes with low muscle mass. We suggest that patients born extremely preterm SGA should be carefully observed for the development of type 2 diabetes, even if they did not have AR in early childhood or had not become obese.

Large mid-upper arm circumference is associated with reduced insulin resistance independent of BMI and waist circumference: A cross-sectional study in the Chinese population. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2022; 13:1054671. [PMID: 36619554 PMCID: PMC9816137 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.1054671] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Body mass index (BMI) is a common indicator in clinical practice, but it is not sufficient to predict insulin resistance (IR). Other anthropometric methods supplement BMI in the assessment of body composition, which can be predicted more accurately. This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the association between mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC), triceps skinfold (TSF) thickness, mid-arm muscle circumference (MAMC) and IR in Chinese adults. METHODS This cross-sectional study analyzed data from the 2009 China Health and Nutrition Survey database. The study population was divided into four groups according to the MUAC quartiles, and the homeostasis mode assessment was used to evaluate the degree of IR. Logistic regression analysis was performed to calculate odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs), with adjustments for multiple covariates. Subgroup analyses stratified by age, sex, BMI, waist circumference (WC), smoking status, and alcohol consumption were performed. RESULTS In total, 8,070 participants were included in the analysis. As MUAC increased, BMI, TSF thickness, MAMC, and the proportion of IR tended to increase. However, we found that there was a significant negative association between MUAC and MAMC and IR in the logistic regression analysis, independent of BMI and WC, the ORs for the highest quartiles compared with the lowest quartiles were 0.662 (95%CI: 0.540-0.811) and 0.723 (95%CI: 0.609-0.860), respectively. There was no significant association was observed between the TSF thickness and IR (OR=1.035 [95%CI: 0.870-1.231]). The inverse associations were more pronounced among participants with lower BMI and WC. No significant age-specific differences were observed (P-heterogeneity > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS After adjusting for BMI and WC, MUAC was negatively associated with IR in Chinese adults, and the association between MUAC and IR was derived from arm muscle instead of subcutaneous fat. MUAC could be an additional predictor of IR besides BMI and WC in clinical practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Upper body fat has been associated with an unfavourable cardiometabolic risk. We aimed to investigate the associations between mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC), a novel indicator of upper body fat, and a wide spectrum of cardiometabolic risk profiles in Chinese population. DESIGN AND SETTING Cross-sectional analyses were performed using data from a well-defined community in 2014, Shanghai, China. PARTICIPANTS A total of 6287 Chinese adults (2310 men and 3977 women) aged 40 years or older. OUTCOME MEASURES Multivariable logistic regression model was used to examine the associations of MUAC with cardiometabolic disorders including central obesity, diabetes, hypertension, hypertriglyceridaemia, low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and subclinical atherosclerosis. RESULTS In the overall participants, after multivariable adjustment, each 1 SD (3.13 cm) increment in MUAC was positively associated with central obesity (OR 2.05; 95% CI 1.85 to 2.28), hypertension (OR 1.10; 95% CI 1.03 to 1.19) and low HDL cholesterol (OR 1.10; 95% CI 1.01 to 1.22). Multivariable-adjusted ORs for subclinical atherosclerosis were gradually increased across increasing quartiles of MUAC with the lowest quartile as reference (quartile 2: OR 1.31; 95% CI 1.09 to 1.58; quartile 3: OR 1.33; 95% CI 1.10 to 1.62; quartile 4: OR 1.45; 95% CI 1.16 to 1.80; p for trend=0.005). Similar but more prominent associations were observed among women than men. In addition, MUAC was significantly interacted with diabetes (p for interaction=0.04) and insulin resistance (p for interaction=0.01) on subclinical atherosclerosis. CONCLUSION A greater MUAC was positively associated with higher risks of several cardiometabolic disorders and subclinical atherosclerosis in Chinese adults.

Higuchi R, Iwane T, Suwa K, Nakajima K. Adjustment for Waist Circumference Reveals a U-Shaped Association Between Glycated Hemoglobin Levels and Body Mass Index in Young Adults. Can J Diabetes 2019; 43:201-206. [PMID: 30503869 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcjd.2018.09.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2017] [Revised: 08/14/2018] [Accepted: 09/14/2018] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Body mass index (BMI) is used to assess adiposity worldwide. However, additional adjustment for waist circumference (WC), a surrogate marker of abdominal fat, may be capable of revealing a latent relationship between low body weight and glycated hemoglobin (A1C) concentration. Here, we investigated the relationship between A1C and BMI in young adults, adjusting for WC. METHODS We reviewed A1C, BMI, WC and other clinical data in a cross-sectional study of 26,475 apparently healthy Japanese people 20 to 39 years of age who were undergoing health check-ups. RESULTS Although the values of most serum parameters were high in subjects with a high BMI in both younger (20 to 29 years of age, n=10,810) and older subjects (30 to 39 years of age, n=15,665), A1C had a J-shaped relationship with BMI category in younger subjects, regardless of sex. A traditional linear model via a generalized linear model showed that in younger subjects, an inverse association of A1C level with BMI category (19 to 26.9 kg/m2 vs. ≤18.9 kg/m2) was identified after adjustment for WC. This indicates positive associations between A1C and BMI categories of ≤18.9 (beta=0.06; p<0.0001), 19.0 to 20.9 (beta=0.03; p<0.01) and ≥27.0 kg/m2 (beta=0.08; p<0.0001), in contrast to individuals with BMIs of 23.0 to 24.9 kg/m2. Similarly, in older subjects, BMIs ≤18.9 kg/m2 were associated with A1C levels but to a lesser extent (beta=0.04; p<0.05) than in younger subjects. CONCLUSIONS Additional adjustment of BMI for WC revealed a latent U-shaped association between A1C concentration and BMI, particularly in young adults; this deserves further investigation.
