Abstract
AIMS To investigate the associations of conicity index (C-index) and relative fat mass (RFM) with incident type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among adults in China. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 10 813 participants aged over 18 years in Shenzhen Longhua district were enrolled in a follow-up study conducted from 2018 to 2022. The participants were categorized based on quartiles (Q) of C-index and RFM. The Cox proportional hazards model was performed to examine the relationships between C-index, RFM and the risk of T2DM. RESULTS After adjusting for potential confounding factors, including age, sex, occupation, marital status, education level, smoking status, alcohol consumption, physical exercise, hypertension status, fasting blood glucose (FBG) and total cholesterol (TC), both C-index and RFM showed positive and independent associations with risk of T2DM. The multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) for T2DM risk in participants in C-index Q3 and Q4 compared with those in C-index Q1 were 1.50 (1.12, 2.02) and 1.73 (1.29, 2.30), and 1.94 (1.44, 2.63), 3.18 (1.79, 5.64), 4.91 (2.68, 9.00) for participants in RFM Q2, Q3 and Q4 compared with RFM Q1. These differences were statistically significant (all p < 0.05). CONCLUSION C-index and RFM are strongly associated with new-onset T2DM and could be used to identify the risk of diabetes in large-scale epidemiological studies.

[PMID: 39025982 PMCID: PMC11258278 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-67430-x] [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: 02/17/2024] [Accepted: 07/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Relationships between the visceral adiposity index (VAI) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have been underexplored. The purpose of this study is to explore association between VAI and T2DM in adults in the US. Based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2007-2018, 11,214 participants aged 20 years or older were included in a cross-sectional study. Multifactorial logistic regression analysis and smoothed curve fitting analysis were performed to investigate links between VAI and the prevalence of T2DM, as well as the stability and incidence between subgroups. In a fully adjusted continuous model, the aggregate population risk of T2DM increased 0.43-fold with each 1-unit increase in VAI [odds ratio (OR) = 1.43; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.35-1.50]. In the fully adjusted categorical model with VAI scores stratified by quartiles, results showed a higher T2DM advantage among participants in the second, third, and fourth quartiles (Q2: OR 1.35, 95% CI 1.06-1.71; Q3: OR 2.46, 95% CI 1.95-3.11; Q4: OR 4.42, 95% CI 3.55-05.50). Compared with Q1, the prevalence of T2DM in the total population increased 3.42-fold in Q4. The above results indicated that VAI was positively associated with the prevalence of T2DM, which was consistent and nonlinear with the smoothed curve-fitting analysis (P for non-linear = 0). Subgroup analyses after adjusting for covariates showed that keeping with the overall population results, it also was found that there was an interaction between sex and hypertension in the subgroups. VAI was positively associated with the prevalence of T2DM and was more prevalent in women, non-hypertensive than in men, hypertensive populations.

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
Background Insulin resistance (IR) is a pivotal pathogenic component of metabolic diseases. It is crucial to identify convenient and reliable indicators of insulin resistance for its early detection. This study aimed at assessing the predictive ability of seven novel obesity and lipid-related indices. Methods A total of 5,847 female and 3,532 male healthy subjects were included in the study. The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index, TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI), TyG-waist circumference (TyG-WC), lipid accumulation products (LAP), body roundness index (BRI), body adiposity index (BAI), and visceral adiposity index (VAI) were measured and calculated using the established formulae. IR was diagnosed using the homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index over the third quantile. Results The levels of all seven lipid-related indices were significantly higher in subjects with higher HOMA-IR values than in those with lower HOMA-IR values. These indices displayed moderate to high effectiveness [receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve-area under the curve (AUC) > 0.6] in predicting IR. Among them, TyG-BMI (AUC: 0.729), LAP (AUC: 0.708), and TyG-WC (AUC: 0.698) showed the strongest association with HOMA-IR. In the female population, the AUC for TyG-BMI, LAP, and TyG-WC in predicting IR was 0.732, 0.705, and 0.718, respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed the optimal cut-off values of those indicators in predicting IR as follows: TyG-BMI: male subjects - 115.16 [odds ratio (OR) = 6.05, 95% CI: 5.09-7.19], female subjects - 101.58 (OR = 4.55, 95% CI: 4.00-5.16); LAP: male subjects - 25.99 (OR = 4.53, 95% CI: 3.82-5.38), female subjects - 16.11 (OR = 3.65, 95% CI: 3.22-4.14); and TyG-WC: male subjects - 409.43 (OR = 5.23, 95% CI: 4.48-6.24), female subjects - 342.48 (OR = 4.07, 95% CI: 3.59-4.61). Conclusion TyG-index-related parameters and LAP appear to be effective predictors of IR in the Chinese population. Specifically, TyG-BMI may be the most appropriate predictor of IR.

Predictive Value of the Chinese Visceral Adiposity Index for Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Fatty Liver Disease and Elevated Alanine Aminotransferase Levels in Nonobese Chinese Adults: A Cross-Sectional Study. J Inflamm Res 2024; 17:3893-3913. [PMID: 38915805 PMCID: PMC11194174 DOI: 10.2147/jir.s468093] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/08/2024] [Indexed: 06/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose It is unclear how the Chinese Visceral Adiposity Index (cVAI) relates to metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in nonobese individuals. In this study, we evaluated the ability of the cVAI to predict MAFLD and elevated ALT in nonobese participants. Methods This cross-sectional study recruited 541 nonobese subjects from March 2019 to January 2022 with the age range of 18-80 years. Hepatic steatosis was diagnosed by ultrasound. Participants were divided into four groups according to cVAI quartiles. To assess the associations between cVAI and MAFLD and elevated ALT, multivariate logistic regression was used. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to evaluate the ability of the cVAI to predict MAFLD and elevated ALT. Results Compared to the group with the lowest cVAI, the group with the highest cVAI was positively associated with nonobese MAFLD [16.173 (4.082-64.073), P < 0.001] and elevated ALT [8.463 (2.859-25.049), P < 0.001]. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the cVAI was greater than that of WC, waist-to-height ratio, or BMI for predicting nonobese MAFLD in the male, female, > 38 and ≤ 38 years old subgroups (P < 0.05), respectively. In addition, the ability of the cVAI to predict MAFLD was better in females, young individuals, and individuals with a higher education level (P < 0.05). The cVAI also had good predictive ability for elevated ALT levels [0.655 (0.602-0.708)], particularly in females, young people, and highly educated participants. Furthermore, the cVAI was strongly positively correlated with the liver fibrosis score (P < 0.05) and was also a strong indicator of concomitant metabolic syndrome in nonobese MAFLD patients [AUC = 0.688 (0.612-0.763)]. Conclusion The cVAI was strongly related to nonobese MAFLD and elevated ALT. The cVAI may be a reliable and accessible predictor of nonobese MAFLD and elevated ALT.

[PMID: 38920551 PMCID: PMC11202913 DOI: 10.3390/diseases12060119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2024] [Revised: 05/26/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Individuals with hyperinsulinemia may initially not meet any diagnostic criteria for metabolic syndrome, though displaying a higher risk of cardiovascular complications combined with obesity, diabetes, and hypertension. AIM The main objective of our study was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of various cardiovascular risk indices in hyperinsulinemic children and adolescents; a secondary objective was to estimate the optimal cut-offs of these indices. PATIENTS AND METHODS This retrospective single-center study was conducted on 139 patients aged 12.1 ± 2.9 years, managed for hyperinsulinism. RESULTS We found statistically significant differences in homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), triglyceride glucose index (TyG), TyG-body mass index, visceral adiposity index, lipid accumulation product index, fatty liver index, and hepatic steatosis index. At the linear logistic regression assessment, we found that insulin growth factor-1 (IGF-1), HOMA-IR, and ALT/AST ratio were independently associated with confirmed hyperinsulinism. At the multivariate analysis, IGF-1 levels over 203 ng/mL and HOMA-IR higher than 6.2 were respectively associated with a 9- and 18-times higher odds ratio for hyperinsulinism. The other investigated parameters were not significantly related to hyperinsulinism, and could not predict either the presence of hyperinsulinemia or a subsequent cardiovascular risk in our patients. CONCLUSION Commonly used indices of cardiovascular risk in adults cannot be considered accurate in confirming hyperinsulinism in children, with the exception of HOMA-IR. Further studies are needed to verify the usefulness of specific cardiovascular risk indices in hyperinsulinemic children and adolescents.

Abstract
To investigate the screening and predicting functions of obesity- and lipid-related indices for type 2 diabetes (T2D) in middle-aged and elderly Chinese, as well as the ideal predicted cut-off value. This study's data comes from the 2011 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). A cross-sectional study design was used to investigate the relationship of T2D and 13 obesity- and lipid-related indices, including body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-height ratio (WHtR), visceral adiposity index (VAI), a body shape index (ABSI), body roundness index (BRI), lipid accumulation product (LAP), conicity index (CI), Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI), triglyceride- glucose index (TyG index) and its correlation index (TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, TyG-WHtR). The unadjusted and adjusted correlations between 13 indices and T2D were assessed using binary logistic regression analysis. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to determine the usefulness of anthropometric indices for screening for T2D and determining their cut‑off value, sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve (AUC). The study comprised 9488 people aged 45 years or above in total, of whom 4354 (45.89%) were males and 5134 (54.11%) were females. Among them were 716 male cases of T2D (16.44%) and 870 female cases of T2D (16.95%). A total of 13 obesity- and lipid-related indices were independently associated with T2D risk after adjusted for confounding factors (P < 0.05). According to ROC analysis, the TyG index was the best predictor of T2D among males (AUC = 0.780, 95% CI 0.761, 0.799) and females (AUC = 0.782, 95% CI 0.764, 0.799). The AUC values of the 13 indicators were higher than 0.5, indicating that they have predictive values for T2D in middle-aged and elderly Chinese. The 13 obesity- and lipid-related indices can predict the risk of T2D in middle‑aged and elderly Chinese. Among 13 indicators, the TyG index is the best predictor of T2D in both males and females. TyG-WC, TyG-BMI, TyG-WHtR, LAP, and CVAI all outperformed BMI, WC, and WHtR in predicting T2D.

[PMID: 38724633 PMCID: PMC11082163 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-61289-8] [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: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Higher fat-to-muscle mass ratio (FMR) is reported to be a risk factor for various diseases, including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, and mortality. Although this association suggests that reducing FMR may help to prevent certain diseases and mortality, the relationship between FMR and lifestyle factors is unclear. Therefore, we performed a cross-sectional study with the aim to elucidate this relationship. This cross-sectional study included 1518 healthy Japanese adults aged 30 to 64 years. We measured FMR in the whole body, arms, legs, and trunk and assessed various lifestyle factors. Then, we performed forced entry multiple regression analyses for FMR with the following variables: sex, age, physical activity, dietary intake, sleep quality, cigarette smoking, stress levels, and body mass index. As a result, whole-body and regional FMRs were correlated with female sex (β = 0.71); age (β = 0.06); physical activity (β = - 0.07); dietary intake of protein (β = - 0.12), carbohydrate (β = 0.04), sodium (β = 0.13), and fiber (β = - 0.16); and body mass index (β = 0.70). The results suggest that in the Japanese middle-aged population, low FMR is associated with certain lifestyle factors, i.e. higher physical activity and a diet with higher protein and fiber and lower carbohydrate and sodium, independent of age, sex, and body mass index.

Abstract
PURPOSE The COVID-19 pandemic represents a great global concern and its associated morbidities. The goal of this study was to determine the incidence of newly diagnosed hyperglycemia and diabetes among COVID-19 survivors and to evaluate whether obesity and lipid profile have an effect on this group using the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP). METHODS In the retrospective study, 511 adults with a previously diagnosed "Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2" who admitted to COVID-19 follow-up outpatient clinic were evaluated. Data was collected on patient demographics, comorbidities, and some laboratory results. Logistic regression was used to estimate associated factors. RESULTS Newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) was defined in 17 patients (3.32%), hyperglycemia in 86 patients (16.82%). The results of analysis were examined, gender, age, BMI and triglyceride variables were found to be significant risk factors together. Fasting blood glucose values of 22 out of 86 patients with hyperglycemia returned to normal after six months of follow-up. Undiagnosed-preexisting DM in 4 out of 17 patients diagnosed with T2DM at their first visit and in 7 out of 8 hyperglycemia patients diagnosed with T2DM at the end of six-month follow-up. CONCLUSION COVID-19, may directly/indirectly, predispose to hyperglycemia. Obesity and hyperlipidemia are risk factors for newly diagnosed T2DM/hyperglycemia in post-COVID-19 syndrome patients. Since that some metabolic variables were found to be significantly higher in the group with high AIP values, we suggest that AIP might be used as a reference to predict the development of obesity and T2DM.

Diabetes Ther 2024; 15:1215-1229. [PMID: 38578396 PMCID: PMC11043308 DOI: 10.1007/s13300-024-01565-y] [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: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 03/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Aberrant brain functional connectivity network is thought to be related to cognitive impairment in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aims to investigate the triple-network effective connectivity patterns in patients with T2DM within and between the default mode network (DMN), salience network (SN), and executive control network (ECN) and their associations with cognitive declines. METHODS In total, 92 patients with T2DM and 98 matched healthy controls (HCs) were recruited and underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI). Spectral dynamic causal modeling (spDCM) was used for effective connectivity analysis within the triple network. The posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC), supramarginal gyrus (SMG), and anterior insula (AINS) were selected as the regions of interest. Group comparisons were performed for effective connectivity calculated using the fully connected model, and the relationships between effective connectivity alterations and cognitive impairment as well as clinical parameters were detected. RESULTS Compared to HCs, patients with T2DM exhibited increased or decreased effective connectivity patterns within the triple network. Furthermore, diabetes duration was significantly negatively correlated with increased effective connectivity from the r-LPFC to the mPFC, while body mass index (BMI) was significantly positively correlated with increased effective connectivity from the l-LPFC to the l-AINS (r = - 0.353, p = 0.001; r = 0.377, p = 0.004). CONCLUSION These results indicate abnormal effective connectivity patterns within the triple network model in patients with T2DM and provide new insight into the neurological mechanisms of T2DM and related cognitive dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity substantially contributes to the onset of acute pancreatitis (AP) and influences its progression to severe AP. Although body mass index (BMI) is a widely used anthropometric parameter, it fails to delineate the distribution pattern of adipose tissue. To circumvent this shortcoming, the predictive efficacies of novel anthropometric indicators of visceral obesity, such as lipid accumulation products (LAP), cardiometabolic index (CMI), body roundness index (BRI), visceral adiposity index (VAI), A Body Shape Index (ABSI), and Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI) were examined to assess the severity of AP. METHOD The body parameters and laboratory indices of 283 patients with hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP) were retrospectively analysed, and the six novel anthropometric indicators of visceral obesity were calculated. The severity of HLAP was determined using the revised Atlanta classification. The correlation between the six indicators and HLAP severity was evaluated, and the predictive efficacy of the indicators was assessed using area under the curve (AUC). The differences in diagnostic values of the six indicators were also compared using the DeLong test. RESULTS Patients with moderate to severe AP had higher VAI, CMI, and LAP than patients with mild AP (all P < 0.001). The highest AUC in predicting HLAP severity was observed for VAI, with a value of 0.733 and 95% confidence interval of 0.678-0.784. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated significant correlations between HLAP severity and VAI, CMI, and LAP indicators. These indicators, particularly VAI, which displayed the highest predictive power, were instrumental in forecasting and evaluating the severity of HLAP.

Abstract
Background Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI) is a reliable visceral obesity index, but the association between CVAI and risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains unclear. We explored the associations of CVAI with incident CVD, heart disease, and stroke and compared the predictive power of CVAI with other obesity indices based on a national cohort study. Methods The present study included 7,439 participants aged ≥45 years from China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). Cox regression models were applied to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Restricted cubic splines analyses were adopted to model the dose-response associations. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) analyses were used to compare the predictive ability of different obesity indices (CVAI, visceral adiposity index [VAI], a body shape index [ABSI], conicity index [CI], waist circumference [WC], and body mass index [BMI]). Results During 7 years' follow-up, 1,326 incident CVD, 1,032 incident heart disease, and 399 stroke cases were identified. The HRs (95% CI) of CVD, heart disease, and stroke were 1.50 (1.25-1.79), 1.29 (1.05-1.57), and 2.45 (1.74-3.45) for quartile 4 versus quartile 1 in CVAI. Linear associations of CVAI with CVD, heart disease, and stroke were observed (P nonlinear >0.05) and per-standard deviation (SD) increase was associated with 17% (HR 1.17, 1.10-1.24), 12% (1.12, 1.04-1.20), and 31% (1.31, 1.18-1.46) increased risk, respectively. Per-SD increase in CVAI conferred higher risk in participants aged<60 years than those aged ≥60 years (P interaction<0.05). ROC analyses showed that CVAI had higher predictive value than other obesity indices (P<0.05). Conclusions CVAI was linearly associated with risk of CVD, heart disease, and stroke and had best performance for predicting incident CVD. Our findings indicate CVAI as a reliable and applicable obesity index to identify higher risk of CVD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with progression of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Visceral adiposity may be a more meaningful measure of obesity compared with traditional measures such as body mass index (BMI). This study compared visceral adiposity vs BMI as predictors of time to IBD flare among patients with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study. IBD patients were included if they had a colonoscopy and computed tomography (CT) scan within a 30-day window of an IBD flare. They were followed for 6 months or until their next flare. The primary exposure was the ratio of visceral adipose tissue to subcutaneous adipose tissue (VAT:SAT) obtained from CT imaging. BMI was calculated at the time of index CT scan. RESULTS A total of 100 Crohn's disease and 100 ulcerative colitis patients were included. The median age was 43 (interquartile range, 31-58) years, 39% had disease duration of 10 years or more, and 14% had severe disease activity on endoscopic examination. Overall, 23% of the cohort flared with median time to flare 90 (interquartile range, 67-117) days. Higher VAT:SAT was associated with shorter time to IBD flare (hazard ratio of 4.8 for VAT:SAT ≥1.0 vs VAT:SAT ratio <1.0), whereas higher BMI was not associated with shorter time to flare (hazard ratio of 0.73 for BMI ≥25 kg/m2 vs BMI <25 kg/m2). The relationship between increased VAT:SAT and shorter time to flare appeared stronger for Crohn's than for ulcerative colitis. CONCLUSIONS Visceral adiposity was associated with decreased time to IBD flare, but BMI was not. Future studies could test whether interventions that decrease visceral adiposity will improve IBD disease activity.

The effect of subcutaneous dulaglutide on weight loss in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus: Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Eur J Clin Invest 2024; 54:e14125. [PMID: 37950521 DOI: 10.1111/eci.14125] [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: 08/06/2023] [Revised: 10/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/29/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dulaglutide, a subcutaneously administered glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist, has been hypothesized to lead to weight loss in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the consequences of its prescription on body weight (BW) and other anthropometric indices, for example, body mass index (BMI) or waist circumference (WC), have not been completely clarified. Therefore, we aimed to assess the effects of subcutaneous dulaglutide administration on BW, BMI and WC values in T2DM subjects by means of a systematic review and meta-analysis of RCTs. METHODS We computed a literature search in five databases (PubMed/Medline, Web of Science, EMBASE, Scopus and Google Scholar) from their inception to February 2023 to identify RCTs that examined the influence of subcutaneous dulaglutide on obesity indices. We calculated effect sizes using the random-effects model (using DerSimonian-Laird method). Results were derived across weighted mean differences (WMD) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Subgroup analyses were applied to explore possible sources of heterogeneity among the RCTs. The current systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted in compliance with The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement. RESULTS In total, 18 studies with 33 RCT arms (BW = 33 RCT arms, 14,612 participants, 7869 cases and 6743 controls; BMI = 10 RCT arms, 14,612 subjects, 7869 cases and 6743 controls; WC = 10 RCT arms, 1632 participants, 945 cases and 687 cases) were included in the meta-analysis. BW (WMD: -0.86 kg, 95% CI: -1.22, -0.49, p < 0.001), BMI (WMD: -0.68 kg/m2 , 95% CI: -0.88, -0.49, p < 0.001) and WC (WMD: -1.23 cm, 95% CI: -1.82, -0.63, p < 0.001) values decreased notably following subcutaneous dulaglutide administration versus placebo. BW notably decreased in RCTs lasting >18 weeks (WMD: -1.42 kg, 95% CI: -1.90, -0.94, p < 0.001), whereas notable reductions in WC were seen in RCTs lasting ≤18 weeks (WMD: -1.78 cm, 95% CI: -2.59, -0.98, p < 0.001). Dulaglutide dosages >1 mg/day significantly decreased BW (WMD: -1.94 kg, 95% CI: -2.54, -1.34, p < 0.001), BMI (WMD: -0.80 kg/m2 , 95% CI: -1.07, -0.54, p < 0.001) and WC (WMD: -1.47 cm, 95% CI: -1.80, -1.13, p < 0.001). BW decreased particularly following dulaglutide prescription in individuals with obesity (WMD: -1.05 kg, 95% CI: -1.28, -0.82, p < 0.001) versus overweight. The dose-response meta-analysis revealed that BW decreased significantly when dulaglutide was prescribed in doses ≤3 mg/day versus >3 mg/day. CONCLUSIONS Subcutaneous dulaglutide administration in T2DM reduces BW, BMI and WC. The decrease in BW and WC was influenced by the dose and the duration of dulaglutide administration. The reduction in BMI was only influenced by the dosage of dulaglutide. Moreover, T2DM patients who suffered from obesity experienced a notable decrease in BW versus T2DM subjects without obesity.

Abstract
AIM To determine the associations between the Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI) and the risks of all-cause and cause-specific mortality. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 3 916 214 Chinese adults were enrolled in a nationwide population cohort covering all 31 provinces of mainland China. The CVAI was calculated based on age, body mass index, waist circumference, and triglyceride and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations. We used a Cox proportional hazards regression model to determine the hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for risk of mortality associated with different CVAI levels. RESULTS The median follow-up duration was 3.8 years. A total of 86 158 deaths (34 867 cardiovascular disease [CVD] deaths, 29 884 cancer deaths, and 21 407 deaths due to other causes) were identified. In general, after adjusting for potential confounding factors, a U-shaped relationship between CVAI and all-cause mortality was observed by restricted cubic spline (RCS). Compared with participants in CVAI quartile 1, those in CVAI quartile 4 had a 23.0% (95% CI 20.0%-25.0%) lower risk of cancer death, but a 23.0% (95% CI 19.0-27.0) higher risk of CVD death. In subgroup analysis, a J-shaped and inverted U-shaped relationship for all-cause mortality and cancer mortality was observed in the group aged < 60 years. CONCLUSIONS The CVAI, an accessible indicator reflecting visceral obesity among Chinese adults, has predictive value for all-cause, CVD, and cancer mortality risks. Moreover, the CVAI carries significance in the field of health economics and secondary prevention. In the future, it could be used for early screening purposes.

A Randomized Controlled Trial Investigating the Impact of a Low-Calorie Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension (DASH) on Anthropometric and Glycemic Measures in Patients Experiencing Weight Regain 2 Years Post Sleeve Surgery. Obes Surg 2024; 34:892-901. [PMID: 38217832 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-024-07057-z] [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: 08/29/2023] [Revised: 01/06/2024] [Accepted: 01/07/2024] [Indexed: 01/15/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of a low-calorie dietary approach to stop hypertension (DASH) compared to a low-calorie diet on weight control, body composition and glycemic measures in post sleeve patients with weight regain. MATERIALS AND METHODS Participants were randomly allocated to either the low-calorie DASH diet group (intervention) or the low-calorie diet group (control) for a duration of 16 weeks. Both groups had a prescribed caloric intake of 1000-1200 calories. The DASH diet group made dietary adjustments in accordance with the DASH pattern. RESULTS At the end of the study, both interventions significantly reduced anthropometric and body composition parameters (P-value < 0.001), with a greater decrease observed in the low-calorie DASH diet group (P-value < 0.001). Insulin levels and homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) decreased significantly in both groups, but the magnitude of these changes was not statistically different between the two groups. After adjusting for confounders, a significant difference was observed in post-intervention values and changes in weight, body mass index, and fat mass and fat-free mass. CONCLUSION In summary, adhering to a calorie-restricted DASH diet for 16 weeks improved weight loss, body mass index, and fat mass reduction in post-bariatric patients who experienced weight regain 2 years after surgery, compared to a calorie-restricted control diet. However, there was no significant difference in the effect on blood glucose, insulin, and HOMA-IR between the two diets.

Jung JY, Oh CM, Jo HC, Park SK. Predictive ability of the Chinese visceral adiposity index for incident hypertension in working-aged Koreans. Epidemiol Health 2024; 46:e2024034. [PMID: 38453332 PMCID: PMC11176715 DOI: 10.4178/epih.e2024034] [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: 12/16/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI) was developed to assess visceral adipose tissue in the Asian population. This study evaluated the predictive ability of the CVAI for incident hypertension in Korean adults. METHODS The study participants included 128,577 Koreans without hypertension. They were grouped in quartiles according to body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), visceral adipose index (VAI), and CVAI values. The Cox proportional hazard assumption was used to evaluate the hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for incident hypertension (adjusted HR [95% CI]) according to quartile level across a follow-up period of 6.9 years. Subgroup analyses were conducted by gender and obesity. The area under the curve was calculated to compare the predictive abilities of all indices (BMI, WC, VAI, and CVAI) for incident hypertension. RESULTS The CVAI was proportionally associated with the risk of hypertension in all participants (quartile 1: reference; quartile 2: 1.71 [95% CI, 1.59 to 1.82]; quartile 3: 2.41 [95% CI, 2.25 to 2.58]; and quartile 4: 3.46 [95% CI, 3.23 to 3.71]). Time dependent receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that the CVAI was superior to BMI, WC, and VAI in predicting hypertension at the 2-year, 4-year, 6-year, and 8-year follow-ups. This finding was also observed in the gender and obesity subgroups. The predictive ability of the CVAI was greater in the women and non-obese subgroups than in the men and obese subgroups. CONCLUSIONS The CVAI was a stronger predictor of hypertension than BMI, WC, and VAI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association of visceral adiposity with mortality in older adults is conflicting. Whether age influences the predicting ability of visceral adiposity (VAI) for mortality remains unknown. This study uncovered the relationship between age-adjusted visceral adiposity index and mortality through the data of NHANES 2011-2014. METHODS This study obtained data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2014. The age-adjusted visceral adiposity index (AVAI) scores were expressed as quartiles. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analysis was also applied to compare the predictive ability for mortality. Multivariate weighted Cox regression models were constructed to explore the association between AVAI and mortality. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were conducted for survival analyses. Smooth curve fittings and two-piecewise linear models were applied to explore the relationships between AVAI and mortality. RESULTS This study recruited 4281 subjects aged ≥ 18 years from the NHANES 2011-2014. The AUCs of AVAI were 0.82 (0.79, 0.86) and 0.89 (0.85, 0.92) for predicting all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality, which were superior to BMI, WC and VAI (all p < 0.05). AVAI is still an independent predictor for mortality adjusted for confounders. The associations of AVAI with all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities were dose-responsive, with higher AVAI scores indicating higher mortality risks. CONCLUSION Age significantly improves the ability of VAI for predicting all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Age-adjusted VAI is independently associated with mortality risk, and thus could be considered a reliable parameter for assessing mortality risk.

Abstract
Abdominal adiposity is associated with tumor development and poor clinical outcomes in breast cancer (BC) and can be identified by the measurement of waist circumference (WC) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT). This study aimed to evaluate the association between waist circumference (WC) and imaging measurement of central adiposity according to age group in women with BC. Abdominal adiposity was assessed by WC and VAT, obtained by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Body mass index (BMI) was assessed. The presence of inflammation was investigated by measuring C-Reactive Protein (CRP) levels. Multivariate linear regression models were applied to verify the association between WC and VAT. The significance level adopted for all tests was 5%. This study included 112 women with a mean age of 55.5 ± 11.4 years. After adjusted models, WC remained associated with VAT and for every centimeter increase in WC, there was an increase of 3.12 cm2 (CI: 2.40 - 3.85; p < 0.001) in VAT. WC was associated with VAT in women with breast cancer, proving to be a simple, fast, and noninvasive approach that can be used as a proxy to identify visceral fat.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Visceral Adiposity Index (VAI) is a gender-specific mathematical model based on BMI, waist circumference (WC) and lipid parameters. No study has yet examined the relationship between this index and the glycemic and metabolic parameters in children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (DM). The current study aims at examining the relationship between glycemic and metabolic control and VAI in children and adolescents with Type 1 DM. METHODS A total of 150 children and adolescents aged 6-18 years with Type 1 DM were included in this study. Anthropometric, glycemic and metabolic parameters were examined. VAI was calculated using gender-specific formulas. Statistical analysis was done by SPSS version 23. RESULTS The average age of the participants was 12.2 ± 3.1 years (females 53.0%). The females had higher rates of VAI, microalbuminuria and hypertension than males. Participants of both gender with higher VAI quartiles had higher anthropometric measurements, insulin usage, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), triglycerides and urine microalbumin and had poor glycemic control. Sex adjusted correlation analysis showed that VAI is negatively correlated with estimated glucose disposal rate (eGDR), and positively correlated with insulin dose, LDL-C, triglycerides, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and microalbuminuria. CONCLUSION The present paper is the first study examining the relationship between Type 1 DM and VAI. Higher VAI values in children and adolescents with type 1 DM may adversely affect glycemic and metabolic control. VAI can be a useful and new method in evaluating glycemic and metabolic control in children and adolescents with Type 1 DM.

Abstract
Objective Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains a major and widespread public health concern throughout the world. The prevalence of T2DM in the elderly has risen to the top of the list of public health concerns. In this study, obesity- and lipid-related indices were used to predict T2DM in middle-aged and elderly Chinese adults. Methods The data came from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), including 7902 middle-aged and elderly participants aged 45 years or above. The study assessed the association of obesity- and lipid-related indices and T2DM by measuring 13 indicators, including body mass index (BMI), waist circumference(WC), waist-height ratio (WHtR), conicity index(CI), visceral adiposity index (VAI), Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI), lipid accumulation product (LAP), a body shape index (ABSI), body roundness index (BRI), triglyceride glucose index (TyG-index) and its correlation index (TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, TyG-WHtR). The association of 13 obesity- and lipid-related indices with T2DM was investigated by binary logistic regression. Additionally, the predictive anthropometric index was evaluated, and the ideal cut-off value was established using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and area under the curve (AUC). Results The study included 7902 participants, of whom 3638(46.04) and 4264(53.96) were male and female. The prevalence of T2DM in mid-aged and old adults in China was 9.02% in males and 9.15% in females. All the above 13 indicators show a modest predictive power (AUC>0.5), which was significant for predicting T2DM in adults (middle-aged and elderly people) in China (P<0.05). The results revealed that TyG-WHtR [AUC =0.600, 95%CI: 0.566-0.634] in males and in females [AUC =0.664, 95%CI: 0.636-0.691] was the best predictor of T2DM (P<0.05). Conclusion Most obesity- and lipid-related indices have important value in predicting T2DM. Our results can provide measures for the early identification of T2DM in mid-aged and elderly Chinese to reduce the prevalence of T2DM and improve health.

Abstract
Background Acute pancreatitis is an unpredictable and potentially fatal condition for which no definitive cure is currently available. Our research focused on exploring the connection between body mass index, a frequently overlooked risk factor, and both the onset and progression of acute pancreatitis. Material/Methods A total of 247 patients with acute pancreatitis admitted to Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from January 2021 to February 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. After screening, 117 patients with complete height and body weight data were selected for detailed assessment. Additionally, 85 individuals who underwent physical examinations at our hospital during this period were compiled to create a control group. The study received ethical approval from the ethics committee of Jiangsu Province Hospital of Chinese Medicine (Ref: No.2022NL-114-02) and was conducted in accordance with the China Good Clinical Practice in Research guidelines. Results A significant difference in body mass index (BMI) was observed between the healthy group and acute pancreatitis (AP) patients (p < 0.05), with a more pronounced disparity noted in cases of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (p < 0.01). A potential risk for AP was identified at a BMI greater than 23.56 kg/m2 (AUC = 0.6086, p < 0.05). Being in the obese stage I (95%CI, [1.11-1.84]) or having a BMI below 25.4 kg/m2 (95%CI, [1.82-6.48]) are identified as risk factors for adverse AP progression. Moreover, BMI effectively predicts the onset of acute edematous pancreatitis and acute necrotizing pancreatitis (AUC = 0.7893, p < 0.001, cut-off value = 25.88 kg/m2). A higher BMI correlates with increased recurrence rates within a short timeframe (r = 0.7532, p < 0.01). Conclusions Elevated BMI is a risk factor for both the occurrence and progression of AP, and underweight status may similarly contribute to poor disease outcomes. BMI is crucial for risk prediction and stratification in AP and warrants ongoing monitoring and consideration.

Abstract
Background Inflammation and obesity have been widely recognized to play a key role in Diabetes mellitus (DM), and there exists a complex interplay between them. We aimed to clarify the relationship between inflammation and DM, as well as the mediating role of obesity in the relationship. Methods Based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2018. Univariate analyses of continuous and categorical variables were performed using t-test, linear regression, and χ2 test, respectively. Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between Systemic Immune-Inflammatory Index (SII) or natural logarithm (Ln)-SII and DM in three different models. Mediation analysis was used to determine whether four obesity indicators, including body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), visceral adiposity index (VAI) and lipid accumulation product index (LAP), mediated the relationship between SII and DM. Results A total of 9,301 participants were included, and the levels of SII and obesity indicators (BMI, WC, LAP, and VAI) were higher in individuals with DM (p < 0.001). In all three models, SII and Ln-SII demonstrated a positive correlation with the risk of DM and a significant dose-response relationship was found (p-trend <0.05). Furthermore, BMI and WC were associated with SII and the risk of DM in all three models (p < 0.001). Mediation analysis showed that BMI and WC mediated the relationship between SII with DM, as well as Ln-SII and DM, with respective mediation proportions of 9.34% and 12.14% for SII and 10.23% and 13.67% for Ln-SII (p < 0.001). Conclusion Our findings suggest that increased SII levels were associated with a higher risk of DM, and BMI and WC played a critical mediating role in the relationship between SII and DM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Both obesity and chronic kidney disease (CKD) contribute to osteoporosis risk, but the effect of a newly developed index (e.g., a body shape index, ABSI) of central obesity and its interaction with low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on osteoporosis remains unknown. METHODS A total of 2534 Chinese individuals were enrolled in our ongoing cohort study: Osteoporosis Preventive Project. ABSI and eGFR were calculated as obesity-related indexes and renal function markers, respectively. A logistic regression model was used to estimate the association between osteoporosis and related clinical parameters (e.g., ABSI, eGFR), and to assess the additive and multiplicative interactions between risk factors and osteoporosis. Relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI), attributable proportion due to interaction (AP) and synergy index (SI) were calculated to assess the additive interaction. RESULTS High ABSI was significantly associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis in participants compared with the lowest quartile of ABSI in both crude and adjusted models. Individuals in the lower quartiles of eGFR had a significantly increased risk of osteoporosis compared with those in the highest quartiles in crude models. After adding age and other variables in the model, the association was abolished. In addition, after adjusting for variables, high ABSI with low eGFR (RERI: 0.45, 95% CI: 0.15-0.75; AP: 0.39, 95% CI: 0.17-0.60) still displayed a noticeable interaction on the risk of osteoporosis. The multiplicative interactive effect between high ABSI with low eGFR on osteoporosis was statistically significant in the multivariable-adjusted model (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Our study indicated that higher ABSI increases the risk of osteoporosis independently and synergistically with low eGFR in Chinese elderly adults. The findings increase our understanding of the interactions of osteoporosis risk factors and may help provide potential interventions for osteoporosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to develop a model to predict fasting blood glucose status using machine learning and data mining, since the early diagnosis and treatment of diabetes can improve outcomes and quality of life. METHODS This crosssectional study analyzed data from 3376 adults over 30 years old at 16 comprehensive health service centers in Tehran, Iran who participated in a diabetes screening program. The dataset was balanced using random sampling and the synthetic minority over-sampling technique (SMOTE). The dataset was split into training set (80%) and test set (20%). Shapley values were calculated to select the most important features. Noise analysis was performed by adding Gaussian noise to the numerical features to evaluate the robustness of feature importance. Five different machine learning algorithms, including CatBoost, random forest, XGBoost, logistic regression, and an artificial neural network, were used to model the dataset. Accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, the F1-score, and the area under the curve were used to evaluate the model. RESULTS Age, waist-to-hip ratio, body mass index, and systolic blood pressure were the most important factors for predicting fasting blood glucose status. Though the models achieved similar predictive ability, the CatBoost model performed slightly better overall with 0.737 area under the curve (AUC). CONCLUSIONS A gradient boosted decision tree model accurately identified the most important risk factors related to diabetes. Age, waist-to-hip ratio, body mass index, and systolic blood pressure were the most important risk factors for diabetes, respectively. This model can support planning for diabetes management and prevention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between adiposity indices and the risk of incident diabetes and to compare their predictive ability in non-obese healthy individuals. STUDY DESIGN Population-based cohort study. METHODS Data were taken from the NAGALA research study, which enrolled Japanese adults aged 18-79 years. Cox regression was used to evaluate the association between adiposity indices (including waist circumference [WC], waist-to-height ratio [WHtR], lipid accumulation product index [LAP], body roundness index [BRI], visceral adiposity index [VAI] and Chinese visceral adiposity index [CVAI]) and diabetes risk. The performance of the indices for predicting diabetes was explored using area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). A Chinese community-based population was used for validation. RESULTS A total of 12,940 healthy Japanese individuals with normal body mass index and glycaemic levels were included and were followed up for a median of 6 years. Multivariable Cox models revealed a positive and significant association between all indices and incident diabetes, with the hazard ratios for the highest quartile of the indices ranging from 1.89 to 2.90 (all P-values < 0.01). A non-linear association between WC, BRI and VAI and a linear association between WHtR, LAP and CVAI and diabetes risk were observed. CVAI, VAI and LAP had comparable ability in predicting diabetes, with the highest AUC being 0.733 for CVAI. Data from 10,830 Chinese individuals confirmed these results. CONCLUSIONS Adiposity indices are associated with incident diabetes in healthy non-obese individuals. Participants in the highest quartile of WC, WHtR, LAP, BRI, VAI and CVAI had an increased risk of developing diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS To evaluate the association of Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI) and its dynamic trends with risk of renal damage, and to compare its prediction performance with that of other obesity indices. METHODS AND RESULTS A community-based population with 23 905 participants from Shantou city was included in the cross-sectional analysis. A total of 9,778 individuals from two separated cohort were included in the longitudinal portion. Five patterns of CVAI change were predefined (low-stable, decreasing, moderate, increasing, and persistent-high). Logistic and Cox regressions were used to evaluate the association between CVAI and renal damage. We explored potential mechanisms using the mediating effect method, and the prediction performance was determined by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Results from both cross-sectional and longitudinal data revealed a positive and linear association between CVAI and risk of renal damage. Pooled analysis of the two cohorts showed that per unit increase in Z score of CVAI induced 18% increased risk of renal damage (P = .008). Longitudinal trends of CVAI were also associated with renal damage, and the moderate, increasing, and persistent-high patterns showing a higher risk. Blood pressure and glucose had a mediating effect on renal damage induced by CVAI. Among several obesity indices, CVAI was the optimal for predicting renal damage. CONCLUSION A higher level of immediate CVAI and longitudinal increasing and persistent-high patterns of CVAI were independently associated with increased risk of renal damage. Monitoring immediate level and long-term trend of CVAI may contribute to the prevention of renal damage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) is a new anthropometric indicator to assess adiposity. Current knowledge regarding its association with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is limited. This present study aims to evaluate the association of WWI with the risk of T2DM in the Japanese population, and to compare its predictive ability with body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC). METHODS This was a secondary analysis of a retrospective cohort study involving 15,464 participants. Participants were divided into quartiles based on baseline WWI levels. Cox regression model, Kaplan-Meier curve, and smooth curve fitting were used to explore the relationship between WWI and T2DM. The discriminative ability of obesity indices in predicting T2DM was compared by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. RESULTS After a mean follow-up of 6.05 years, 373 participants were diagnosed with T2DM. In fully adjusted models, the risk of incident T2DM was 1.96 times higher for each 1-unit increment in WWI levels (95% CI: 1.61-2.39, P < 0.001). Smooth curve fitting analysis showed a linear positive association between baseline WWI and new-onset T2DM. Subgroup analysis showed consistent results which subjects in the 4th WWI quartile had the highest risk of developing T2DM in different age, gender, and BMI groups. WWI did not exhibit better predictive ability compared with BMI and WC in the results of ROC curve. CONCLUSION WWI, a new metabolic index, can be used to predict new-onset T2DM in the Japanese population. However, its predictive capability was not superior to conventional anthropometric indices.

Abstract
AIM Our aim in this study was primarily to assess the relationship between visceral adiposity index (VAI) and the risk of kidney stones and kidney stone recurrence in US adults. METHODS We used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2007-2014 for our analysis. VAI was calculated from waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), triglycerides (TG), and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C). Kidney stones and recurrence of kidney stones were obtained from questionnaire interview data. We used multivariate logistic regression analysis to explore the correlation between VAI and the risk of kidney stone and kidney stone recurrence. In addition, we performed subgroup analysis, interaction tests, and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis. RESULTS A total of 9886 participants were included in this study, with a prevalence of 9.24% for kidney stones and 2.97% for recurrence of kidney stones. The prevalence of kidney stones and kidney stone recurrence increased with higher quartiles of VAI. We observed a significantly positive correlation between VAI and the risk of kidney stone and kidney stone recurrence. Participants with the highest VAI quartiles had a 48% (OR: 1.48, 95%CI: 1.08-2.02) and 52% (OR: 1.52, 95%CI: 0.86-2.71) increased risk of kidney stones and kidney stone recurrence, respectively, compared to participants with the lowest VAI quartiles. Subgroup analysis and interaction tests demonstrated this positive association independent of different subgroup factors. CONCLUSION Visceral fat accumulation may be associated with an increased risk of kidney stones and kidney stone recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGRUOUND The effect of obesity on the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) in different age groups remains unclear. We assessed the impact of obesity on the development of DM for two age groups (40-year-old, middle age; 66-year-old, older adults) in the Korean population. METHODS We analyzed Korean National Health Insurance Service data of 4,145,321 Korean adults with 40- and 66-year-old age without DM, between 2009 and 2014. Participants were followed up until 2017 or until the diagnosis of DM. We assessed the risk of DM based on the body mass index and waist circumference of the participants. Multiple confounding factors were adjusted. RESULTS The median follow-up duration was 5.6 years. The association of general and abdominal obesity with the risk of DM development was stronger in the 40-year-old group (general obesity: hazard ratio [HR], 3.566, 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.512 to 3.622; abdominal obesity: HR, 3.231; 95% CI, 3.184 to 3.278) than in the 66-year-old group (general obesity: HR, 1.739; 95% CI, 1.719 to 1.759; abdominal obesity: HR, 1.799; 95% CI, 1.778 to 1.820). In the 66-year-old group, abdominal obesity had a stronger association with the development of DM as compared to general obesity. In the 40-year-old group, general obesity had a stronger association with the risk of DM development than abdominal obesity. CONCLUSION The influence of general and abdominal obesity on the development of DM differed according to age. In older adults, abdominal obesity had a stronger association with DM development than general obesity.

Clinical performance and health equity implications of the American Diabetes Association's 2023 screening recommendation for prediabetes and diabetes. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1279348. [PMID: 37900145 PMCID: PMC10611495 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1279348] [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: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 09/21/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends screening for prediabetes and diabetes (dysglycemia) starting at age 35, or younger than 35 years among adults with overweight or obesity and other risk factors. Diabetes risk differs by sex, race, and ethnicity, but performance of the recommendation in these sociodemographic subgroups is unknown. Methods Nationally representative data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (2015-March 2020) were analyzed from 5,287 nonpregnant US adults without diagnosed diabetes. Screening eligibility was based on age, measured body mass index, and the presence of diabetes risk factors. Dysglycemia was defined by fasting plasma glucose ≥100mg/dL (≥5.6 mmol/L) or haemoglobin A1c ≥5.7% (≥39mmol/mol). The sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values of the ADA screening criteria were examined by sex, race, and ethnicity. Results An estimated 83.1% (95% CI=81.2-84.7) of US adults were eligible for screening according to the 2023 ADA recommendation. Overall, ADA's screening criteria exhibited high sensitivity [95.0% (95% CI=92.7-96.6)] and low specificity [27.1% (95% CI=24.5-29.9)], which did not differ by race or ethnicity. Sensitivity was higher among women [97.8% (95% CI=96.6-98.6)] than men [92.4% (95% CI=88.3-95.1)]. Racial and ethnic differences in sensitivity and specificity among men were statistically significant (P=0.04 and P=0.02, respectively). Among women, guideline performance did not differ by race and ethnicity. Discussion The ADA screening criteria exhibited high sensitivity for all groups and was marginally higher in women than men. Racial and ethnic differences in guideline performance among men were small and unlikely to have a significant impact on health equity. Future research could examine adoption of this recommendation in practice and examine its effects on treatment and clinical outcomes by sex, race, and ethnicity.

Abstract
Background: Studies have shown that vitamin E as an antioxidant protects omega-3 fatty acids (FAs) from oxidation. Several studies have evaluated the effect of omega-3 FAs and vitamin E co-supplementation on obesity indices; however, the results are inconsistent. The present systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to address the role of omega-3 FAs plus vitamin E on obesity indices. Methods: Cochrane Library, PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Web of Science databases were searched up to February 2022. Among all of the qualified studies, 10 articles were selected. The effect size was presented as weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Fixed-effects model was employed to perform meta-analysis. Subgroup analysis and publication bias assessment were carried out. Results: Ten eligible randomized controlled trials comprising 558 participants were included. The average dose of omega-3 FAs and vitamin E co-supplementation in studies was 1000-4000 mg/day and 400 IU, respectively. Intervention duration varied from 6 to 16 weeks. There was no significant effect of omega-3 and vitamin E co-supplementation on body weight (BW) (WMD=0.14 kg; 95% CI: -0.13 to 0.42; p=0.297), and body mass index (BMI) (WMD=0.08, 95% CI: -0.01 to 0.16, p=0.073). However, subgroup analysis showed that it might increase BMI in women over 50 years and if the intervention lasted more than 8 weeks. Conclusion: There was no significant impact of combined omega-3 FAs and vitamin E supplementation on BW and BMI; however, it should be noted that the intervention has an increasing impact when supplementation duration was >8 weeks and in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus, >50 years old, and BMI>25 kg/m2.

[PMID: 37449005 PMCID: PMC10336672 DOI: 10.1016/j.pmedr.2023.102306] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2023] [Revised: 05/23/2023] [Accepted: 06/27/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Visceral adiposity index (VAI) is a new metric for evaluating visceral adiposity dysfunction. The aim of the present study was to explore the association between VAI and incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the American elderly population. We included 6085 participants aged 60 years or older with available data on renal function and VAI from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2011 to 2018 and divided them into four groups according to the VAI quartiles. VAI values were ln-transformed to reduce skewness. We conducted multivariable logistic regression analyses and spline smoothing plot analyses to evaluate the association between VAI and CKD. After fully adjusting for confounding factors, higher lnVAI was associated with a higher risk of CKD (OR, 1.23; 95 %CI, 1.02, 1.48). Compared to the Q1 group (VAI < 1.1), The third and fourth VAI quartiles were associated with a higher prevalence of CKD (Q3: VAI, 1.8-3.0; Q4: VAI > 3.0). The adjusted ORs (95% CI) in Q3 and Q4 were 1.74 (1.24, 2.42) and 1.59 (1.08, 2.33). Adjusted smoothed plots suggested a nonlinear relationship between lnVAI and CKD. The development of CKD increased with increasing VAI among participants with a lnVAI between -0.6 and 1.6 (VAI: 0.5-5.0). In conclusion, VAI is significantly associated with the risk of CKD in the US elderly population aged 60 years or older.

Abstract
CONTEXT Despite the role of BMI as a classical obesity index, other indexes reflecting mainly abdominal obesity, usually outperform BMI in terms of metabolic complications prediction. OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study is to compare the usefulness of different adiposity indexes for the identification of metabolic disturbances in patients with obesity. METHODS In the study, we included 461 patients - group 1 with obesity (n = 182), group 2 with prediabetes (n = 193), and group 3 with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (n = 86). Different anthropometric and adiposity indexes were calculated - WHR, WSR, VAI, ABSI, BRI, Hip index, WWI, LAP. RESULTS VAI and LAP had the highest predictive value for the presence of carbohydrate disturbances. VAI also showed the strongest correlation with Framingham and SCORE compared to other adiposity indexes. CONCLUSIONS VAI and LAP are most useful for the identification of metabolic disturbances and cardiovascular risk in patients with obesity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obesity is a global pandemic with a growing impact on morbidity and mortality. We assessed the associative strength of the Visceral Adiposity Index (VAI) and Dysfunctional Adiposity Index (DAI) in obesity and associated risk using different methods. MATERIAL AND METHODS Cross-sectional study in 418 343 workers from different autonomous communities in Spain, estimating prevalence of obesity with: waist circumference, waist/height index, BMI, CUN-BAE, ECORE-BF, RFM, PALAFOLLS, IMG, METS-VF calculated according to their specific formulas. Descriptive analysis of categorical variables and associative strength of VAI and DAI for obesity was performed with ROC curves considering high risk when the AUC value.0.8 and moderate with AUC.0.7 and.0.8. SPSS 27.0 was used, considering statistical significance p.0.05. RESULTS The prevalence of obesity varied according to the method used, being high with Palafolls (72.92% in women and 86.98% in men) and low with METS-VF (1.31% in women and 8.54% in men). The mean values of VAI and DAI are always higher in men. The AUC of the ROC curve for VAI was high with METS-VF: in women 0.836 (95%CI 0.829-0.843), in men 0.848 (95%CI 0.845-0.850) and with waist circumference in men: 0.819 (95%CI 0.816-0.822). DAI was high for METS-FV in women: 0.809 (95%CI 0.801-0.817). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of obesity and related risk differs according to the assessment method used. VAI shows high strength of association with obesity and fat mass for METS-VF in both sexes and with waist circumference in men; DAI for METS-VF in women.

Poorly controlled diabetes: Glycosylated hemoglobin (HA1c) levels >8% are the tipping point for significantly worse outcomes following hip fracture in the geriatric population. Injury 2023; 54:110862. [PMID: 37302871 DOI: 10.1016/j.injury.2023.110862] [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: 05/03/2023] [Revised: 05/29/2023] [Accepted: 06/01/2023] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The presence of diabetes has been associated with increased mortality risk after hip fracture, however, little has been published about the lab values of these diabetic patients and the role high labs play in morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study is to quantify the severity of diabetes that is associated with worse outcomes in hip fracture patients. METHODS A consecutive series of 2430 patients >55 years old who sustained a hip fracture between October 2014-November 2021 were reviewed for demographics, hospital quality measures, and outcomes. Each patient with a diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (DM) was reviewed for hemoglobin-A1c (HA1c) and glucose values at admission. Univariable comparisons and multivariable regression analyses were conducted to assess the impact of diabetes and elevated lab values (HA1c) on outcomes such as hospital quality measures, inpatient complications, readmission rates, and mortality rates. RESULTS 565 patients (23%) carried a diagnosis of diabetes mellitus at the time of their injury. Considerable demographic and comorbidity differences between diabetic and non-diabetic cohorts indicated that the diabetic cohort was less healthy. The diabetic cohort had longer hospitalizations, higher rates of minor complications, readmissions within 90-days, and mortality within 30-days/1-year. Stratification by HA1c levels found patients with a HA1c>8% had a significantly higher rate of major complications, and mortality at all time points (inpatient/30-day/1-year). Multivariable regression found HA1c>8% to be independently associated with a higher rate of inpatient/30-day/1-year mortality in comparison to a diagnosis of diabetes alone which was not independently significant. CONCLUSION While all patients with DM experienced worse outcomes than those without, those with poorly controlled diabetes (HA1c>8%) at the time of hip fracture injury experienced poorer outcomes compared to those with well-controlled diabetes. Treating physicians must recognize these patients with poorly controlled DM at the time of arrival to adjust care planning and patient expectations accordingly.

Abstract
Objective To predict the optimal cut-off values for screening and predicting metabolic syndrome(MetS) in a middle-aged and elderly Chinese population using 13 obesity and lipid-related indicators, and to identify the most suitable predictors. Methods The data for this cross-sectional investigation came from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), including 9457 middle-aged and elderly people aged 45-98 years old. We examined 13 indicators, including waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), waist-height ratio (WHtR), visceral adiposity index (VAI), a body shape index (ABSI), body roundness index (BRI), lipid accumulation product index (LAP), conicity index (CI), Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI), triglyceride-glucose index (TyG-index) and their combined indices (TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, TyG-WHtR). The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to determine the usefulness of indicators for screening for MetS in the elderly and to determine their cut-off values, sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve (AUC). Association analysis of 13 obesity-related indicators with MetS was performed using binary logistic regression analysis. Results A total of 9457 middle-aged and elderly Chinese were included in this study, and the overall prevalence of the study population was 41.87% according to the diagnostic criteria of NCEP ATP III. According to age and gender, the percentage of males diagnosed with MetS was 30.67% (45-54 years old: 30.95%, 55-64 years old: 41.02%, 65-74 years old: 21.19%, ≥ 75 years old: 6.84%). The percentage of females diagnosed with MetS was 51.38% (45-54 years old: 31.95%, 55-64 years old: 39.52%, 65-74 years old: 20.43%, ≥ 75 years old: 8.10%). The predictive power of Tyg-related parameters was more prominent in both sexes. In addition, LAP and CVAI are also good at predicting MetS. ABSI had a poor prediction ability. Conclusions Among the middle-aged and elderly population in China, after adjusting for confounding factors, all the indicators except ABSI had good predictive power. The predictive power of Tyg-related parameters was more prominent in both sexes. In addition, LAP and CVAI are also good at predicting MetS.

The Visceral Adiposity Index Is a Better Predictor of Excess Visceral Fat in Military Pilots: A Cross-sectional Observational Study. Mil Med 2023; 188:e2003-e2009. [PMID: 36269115 DOI: 10.1093/milmed/usac319] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2022] [Revised: 09/14/2022] [Accepted: 10/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is related to cardiometabolic risk. Estimating it using the visceral adiposity index (VAI) could identify this risk in the Brazilian Air Force (BAF) aviator population. The aim here is to verify the predictive capacity of the VAI for identifying visceral fat areas compared to traditional obesity indicators in BAF pilots. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty male BAF pilots were recruited. The study was conducted in two stages: the first applied a structured questionnaire to characterize the sample and identify sedentary behavior and the second obtained nutritional, anthropometric, and body composition data, carrying out biochemical and magnetic resonance imaging tests and investigating physical activity level in this stage. The comparison of the predictive capacity of the VAI with that of other adiposity indicators (body mass index [BMI], waist circumference, waist-height ratio, waist-hip ratio, and neck circumference) for detecting increased VAT and the determination of the optimal cutoff points for the different adiposity indicators were carried out using receiving operating characteristic (ROC) curves. An association was verified between the adiposity indicators and excess visceral fat using Poisson regression analysis with robust variance. RESULTS The VAI presented a better predictive capacity for VAT (area under the ROC curve = 0.941), while the BMI did not present diagnostic accuracy (95% CI < 0.5). The strength of the association with high visceral fat was also greater for the VAI than for the other indicators evaluated. CONCLUSIONS The VAI was shown to be a better predictor of excess VAT in relation to the other indicators studied. As it is a more easy-access and lower-cost technique than resonance, it enables greater applicability in tracing and monitoring the visceral obesity of a large contingent of military personnel.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies have investigated the combined impact of healthy lifestyle factors on glycemic control. Our study aimed to examine the associations of a healthy lifestyle score (HLS) with glycemic control and to explore the interactive effects of lifestyle factors among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in China. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted among T2DM patients based on the health management of residents from Guangzhou, China. Good glycemic control was defined as fasting plasma glucose < 7.0 mmol/L. HbA1c < 7.0% was also defined as good glycemic control in sensitivity analysis. The HLS was defined as including physical activity, waist circumference, body mass index, dietary habit, smoking, and alcohol consumption. Logistic regression models were used to examine the associations and interactions between the lifestyle factors and glycemic control. RESULTS Compared with participants with an HLS ≤ 2, the odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) for an HLS of 3, 4, 5, and 6 were 0.82 (0.77-0.87), 0.74 (0.70-0.79), 0.61 (0.57-0.65), and 0.56 (0.53-0.60), respectively. Significant interactions of healthy lifestyle factors in relation to glycemic control were shown (Pinteraction < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS A healthier lifestyle was significantly associated with good glycemic control in patients with T2DM, and combined healthy lifestyle factors had a better effect than considering them individually.

Association of the time course of Chinese visceral adiposity index accumulation with cardiovascular events in patients with hypertension. Lipids Health Dis 2023; 22:90. [PMID: 37391821 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-023-01852-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2023] [Accepted: 06/18/2023] [Indexed: 07/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI), a simple surrogate measure of visceral fat, is significantly associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in the general population. This study aimed to evaluate the association of cumulative CVAI (cumCVAI) exposure and its accumulation time course with CVD risk among patients with hypertension. METHODS This prospective study involved 15,350 patients with hypertension from the Kailuan Study who were evaluated at least three times in the observation period of 2006 to 2014 (2006-2007, 2010-2011, and 2014-2015) and who were free of myocardial infarction and stroke before 2014. The cumCVAI was calculated as the weighted sum of the mean CVAI for each time interval (value × time). The time course of CVAI accumulation was categorized by splitting the overall accumulation into early (cumCVAI06 - 10) and late (cumCVAI10 - 14) accumulation, or the slope of CVAI versus time from 2006 to 2014 into positive and negative. RESULTS During the 6.59-year follow-up period, 1,184 new-onset CVD events were recorded. After adjusting for confounding variables, the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for CVD were 1.35 (1.13-1.61) in the highest quartile of cumCVAI, 1.35 (1.14-1.61) in the highest quartile of the time-weighted average CVAI, 1.26 (1.12-1.43) in those with a cumulative burden > 0, and 1.43 (1.14-1.78) for the group with a 10-year exposure duration. When considering the time course of CVAI accumulation, the HR (95% CI) for CVD was 1.33 (1.11-1.59) for early cumCVAI. When considering the combined effect of cumCVAI accumulation and its time course, the HR (95% CI) for CVD was 1.22 (1.03-1.46) for cumCVAI ≥ median with a positive slope. CONCLUSIONS In this study, incident CVD risk depended on both long-term high cumCVAI exposure and the duration of high CVAI exposure among patients with hypertension. Early CVAI accumulation resulted in a greater risk increase than later CVAI accumulation, emphasizing the importance of optimal CVAI control in early life.

Abstract
Introduction Patients with Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) are considered at high-risk for incident stroke. An indicator of visceral adiposity dysfunction, the Chinese Visceral Adiposity Index (CVAI) is used to evaluate the dysfunction of visceral fat. Given the impact of visceral adiposity dysfunction on elevating cardiovascular hazards, this study aimed to examine the association between CVAI and stroke risk in MetS patients. Method Between November 2017 and December 2018, a total of 18,974 individuals aged ≥40 underwent standardized in-person clinical interviews in Hunan Province, with 6,732 meeting the criteria for MetS. After the baseline survey was completed, subsequent surveys were conducted biennially. The study was split into two stages performed at baseline and after two years. During the former, receiver-operating characteristic curves were used to assess the accuracy of using baseline CVAI in diagnosing MetS. After two years, we examined the association between CVAI and incident stroke in MetS patients using logistic regression, subgroup analysis, and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis. Result As evidenced by a higher AUC (AUC:0.741), CVAI demonstrated superior diagnostic performance relative to body mass index (AUC:0.631) and waist circumference (AUC:0.627) in diagnosing MetS. After a 2-year follow-up, 72 MetS patients had a stroke event. There was a robust positive correlation between incident stroke and CVAI in patients with MetS. Each 1 SD increase in CVAI was associated with a 1.52-fold higher risk of stroke after adjustment for confounding factors (aOR=1.52, 95%CI: 1.18-1.95). The RCS demonstrated a reduced risk of stroke for MetS patients when the CVAI was below 110.91. However, no significant correlation was detected between CVAI and stroke in non-MetS patients. Conclusion Our findings recommend CVAI as a superior screening tool for detecting MetS and suggest that reducing CVAI can mitigate the risk of stroke in patients with MetS.

Wang N, Li Y, Guo C. Waist-corrected BMI predicts incident diabetes mellitus in a population-based observational cohort study. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1186702. [PMID: 37361520 PMCID: PMC10290140 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1186702] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Waist-corrected body mass index (wBMI), which combines BMI and waist circumference (WC) measurements, has proven superior to either measure alone for predicting obesity but has not yet been applied to the prediction of diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods Over a 5-year period, 305,499 subjects were eligible for this study based on citizen health check-ups in the Tacheng Area of northwest China. Diagnosis of DM was defined as the end point. Results After exclusion, a total of 111,851 subjects were included in the training cohort and 47,906 in the validation cohort. Participants of both sexes with wBMI in the upper quartiles had significantly higher incidence of DM than those with wBMI in the lower quartiles (log-rank χ2 = 236, p< 0.001 for men; log-rank χ2 = 304, p< 0.001 for women). After adjusting for multiple variables, WC, BMI, wBMI, and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) were all independent predictors for diabetes. In men, the adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) of wBMI for diabetes for the second, third, and fourth quartiles were 1.297 [95% CI: 1.157, 1.455], 1.664 [95% CI: 1.493, 1.853], and 2.132 [95% CI: 1.921, 2.366], respectively, when compared with the first quartile. In women, they were 1.357 [95% CI: 1.191, 1.546], 1.715 [95% CI: 1.517, 1.939], and 2.262 [95% CI: 2.010, 2.545], respectively. Compared with WC, BMI, and WHtR, wBMI had the highest C-index in both men (0.679, 95% CI: 0.670, 0.688) and women (0.730, 95% CI: 0.722, 0.739). Finally, a nomogram was constructed to predict incident DM based on wBMI and other variables. In conclusion, wBMI had the strongest predictive capacity for incident DM when compared with WC, BMI, and WHtR, especially in women. Discussion This study provides a reference for advanced investigation of wBMI on DM and other metabolic diseases in the future.

Abstract
Purpose Existing studies on the association between BMI and depression report conflicting results with some demonstrating a positive relationship, while others a negative link or insignificant correlation. Very limited research on the nonlinear relationship between BMI and depression has yet to clarify the reliability and robustness of the potential nonlinearity and whether a more complex association exists. This paper aims to systematically investigate the nonlinear relationship between the two factors applying rigorous statistical methods, as well as explore the heterogeneity of their association. Materials and Methods A large-scale nationally representative dataset, Chinese General Social Survey, is used to empirically analyze the nonlinear relationship between BMI and perceived depression. Various statistical tests are employed to check the robustness of the nonlinearity. Results Results indicate that there is a U-shaped relationship between BMI and perceived depression, with the turning point (25.718) very close to while slightly larger than the upper limit of the range of healthy weight (18.500 ≤ BMI < 25.000) defined by World Health Organization. Both very high and low BMIs are associated with increased risk for depressive disorders. Furthermore, perceived depression is higher at almost all BMI levels among individuals who are older, female, lower educated, unmarried, in rural areas, belonging to ethnic minorities, non-Communist Party of China members, as well as those with lower income and uncovered by social security. In addition, these subgroups have smaller inflection points and their self-rated depression is more sensitive to BMI. Conclusion This paper confirms a significant U-shaped trend in the association between BMI and depression. Therefore, it is important to account for the variations in this relationship across different BMI categories when using BMI to predict depression risk. Besides, this study clarifies the management goals for achieving an appropriate BMI from a mental health perspective and identifies vulnerable subgroups at higher risk of depression.

Abstract
Background Prediabetes is associated with increased cardiovascular risk and all-cause mortality, while its regression will decrease the risks. This study investigated the associations of six obesity-related indices (waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), body roundness index (BRI), conicity index (CI), body shape index (ABSI), Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI), and triglyceride glucose (TyG) index) with prediabetes regression based on the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), enrolling middle-aged and older adults. Methods We included 2,601 participants with prediabetes from CHARLS, who were followed up from 2011-2012 to 2015-2016, with blood samples collected for measuring fasting plasma glucose and hemoglobin A1c. All the obesity-related indices at baseline and their dynamic changes were calculated and categorized into tertiles. Logistic regression analysis was applied to obtain the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Attributable fractions (AFs) and 95% CIs of these indices and the dynamic changes were calculated with the AF package in R software, and the cutoff values of initial obesity-related indices were obtained by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Results During the 4-year follow-up period, 562 (21.61%) participants regressed from prediabetes to normoglycemia. They had lower initial BRI, WHtR, CI, ABSI, CVAI, and TyG than those who did not (P < 0.05). After multivariable adjustment, participants in the first tertile of initial BRI (OR, 1.45, 95%CIs, 1.09-1.93), WHtR (OR, 1.46, 95%CIs, 1.10-1.95), and CVAI (OR, 1.47, 95%CIs, 1.11-1.93) had increased odds of prediabetes regression compared with those in the highest tertile. Participants with decreased TyG (OR, 2.08; 95%CIs, 1.61-2.70) also had increased odds of prediabetes regression compared with those with increased TyG. The cutoff values of initial obesity-related indices were 4.374 for BRI, 0.568 for WHtR, 8.621 for TyG, 1.320 for CI, 0.083 for ABSI, and 106.152 for CVAI, respectively. The AFs were 21.10% for BRI < 4.374, 20.85% for WHtR < 0.568, 17.48% for CVAI < 107.794, and 17.55% for ΔTyG < 0, respectively. Conclusion Low initial BRI, WHtR, and CVAI, as well as TyG reduction, were significantly related to prediabetes regression to normoglycemia, and the AFs were around 20%. Less abdominal fat and insulin resistance reduction would benefit future health outcomes among people with prediabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The visceral adiposity index (VAI), as a composite indictor to evaluate visceral adipose function, has been demonstrated to be correlated with atherosclerosis. The study objective was to explore the association between asymptomatic intracranial arterial stenosis (aICAS) and VAI in Chinese rural dwellers. METHODS The cross-sectional study consisted of 1942 participants ≥ 40 years old who were living in Pingyin County, Shandong Province and free from history of clinical stroke and transient ischemic attack. The aICAS in the study was diagnosed by transcranial doppler ultrasound combined with magnetic resonance angiography. The multivariate logistic regression models were deployed to explore the correlation of VAI with aICAS, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were plotted to compare the performance of models. RESULTS The participants with aICAS comparing to those without had a significantly higher VAI. After adjusting for confounding factors including age, hypertension, DM, sex, drinking habit, LDL-C, hsCRP, and smoking habit, the VAI-Tertile 3 (vs. VAI-Tertile 1) was positively associated with aICAS (OR, 2.15; 95% CI, 1.25-3.65; P = 0.005). The VAI-Tertile 3 was still markedly associated with aICAS among the underweight and normal weight (BMI ≤ 23.9 kg/m2) participants (OR, 3.17; 95% CI, 1.15-8.71; P = 0.026) with an AUC = 0.684. A similar relationship between VAI and aICAS was obtained among the participants with no abdominal obesity (WHR < 1, OR, 2.03; 95% CI, 1.14-3.62; P = 0.017). CONCLUSIONS The possible correlation between VAI and aICAS was found to be positive for the first time among Chinese rural residents over 40 years old. A higher VAI was found to be significantly associated with aICAS among the participants who were underweight or normal weight, and these results may provide additional risk stratification information for aICAS.

Abstract
Tibetan people are one Chinese ethnic minority living in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau with an average altitude of more than 4500 m. High altitude could cause a different antibiotic exposure, but relevant information is limited in Tibetan people. We investigated 476 Tibetan pregnant women in Lhasa, Tibet in 2021 and measured 30 antibiotics from five categories in urine, including 13 veterinary antibiotics (VAs), five human antibiotics (HAs), and 12 human/veterinary antibiotics (H/VAs). Food consumption was investigated by a brief food frequency questionnaire. Health risk was assessed by hazard quotient (HQ) and hazard index (HI) based on acceptable daily intakes (ADIs). All antibiotics were overall detected in 34.7% of urine samples with the 75th percentile concentration of 0.19 ng/mL (0.35 μg/g creatinine). HAs, VAs, and H/VAs were respectively detected in 5.3%, 13.0%, and 25.0% of urine samples, with the 95th percentiles of 0.01 ng/mL (0.01 μg/g creatinine), 0.50 ng/mL (0.99 μg/g creatinine), and 3.58 ng/mL (5.02 μg/g creatinine), respectively. Maternal age, smoking of family members, and housework time were associated with detection frequencies of HAs, VAs, or sum of all antibiotics. Pregnant women with a more frequent consumption of fresh milk, egg, yoghourt, poultry meat, and fish had a higher detection frequency of VAs or H/VAs. Only ciprofloxacin and tetracycline had a HQ of larger than one based on microbiological effect in 1.26% and 0.21% of pregnant women, respectively and a HI of larger than one was found in 1.47% of pregnant women. The findings suggested that there was an evident antibiotic exposure from various sources in Tibetan pregnant women with some basic characteristics of pregnant women as potential predictors and several animal-derived food items were important sources of exposure to antibiotic with a fraction of pregnant women in the health risk related to microbiological disruption of gut microbiota.

Abstract
Obesity and periodontitis are significantly related, and the visceral adiposity index (VAI) is an important indicator of obesity. This study aimed to investigate the association between VAI and periodontitis. The study included participants from the 2009-2014 cycle of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey who received a complete periodontal exam and VAI record. Periodontitis, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-American Academy of Periodontology periodontitis case definitions, is categorized into the following: no periodontitis, moderate periodontitis, mild periodontitis, and severe periodontitis. Hierarchical analysis, multivariable logistic regression, and restricted cubic spline regression were conducted to investigate the relationship between periodontitis and VAI in adults. There was no significant relationship between VAI and the prevalence of periodontitis in all age groups (P = 0.08). Age-stratified analysis showed a significant association between periodontitis and VAI in adults aged 40-50 years (P < 0.001). After adjusting for all covariates, the association between periodontitis and VAI remained significant in the 40-50-years age group (the trend P value = 0.014). Restricted cubic spline analysis showed a non-linear relationship between VAI and periodontitis (P for non-linear = 0.002). Visceral adiposity index was significantly associated with periodontitis risk in the 40-50-year-old group, and the relationship between VAI and periodontitis risk was found to be non-linear.

Abstract
AimsWe aimed to investigate the association of visceral adiposity index (VAI) with decreased renal function in US adults.Design and methodsCross-sectional data were analyzed for 35,018 adults in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005–2018. VAI was determined using waist circumference, body mass index (BMI), triglycerides (TGs) and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol. Albuminuria was defined as urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) >30 mg/g. A low estimated-glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was defined as an eGFR lower than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) was defined as either albuminuria or low-eGFR. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was utilized to explore the relationship of VAI with albuminuria, low-eGFR and CKD. Subgroup analysis and interaction tests were also conducted.ResultsA total of 35,018 participants were enrolled with albuminuria, low-eGFR, and CKD prevalence rates of 5.18, 6.42, and 10.62%, respectively, which increased with the higher VAI tertiles. After full adjustment, a positive association of VAI with albuminuria (OR = 1.03, 95% CI: 1.00, 1.06) and CKD (OR = 1.04, 95% CI: 1.02, 1.06) was observed. Participants in the highest VAI tertile had a significantly 30% increased risk for albuminuria (OR = 1.30, 95% CI: 1.07, 1.58) and a 27% increased risk for CKD (OR = 1.27, 95% CI: 1.08, 1.49) compared with those in the lowest VAI tertile. No statistically significant association between VAI and low-eGFR was detected. Subgroup analysis and the interaction term indicated that there was no significant difference among different stratifications.ConclusionVisceral adiposity accumulation evaluating by VAI was associated with increased likelihood of the decline in renal function.

Abstract
AIM To develop a personalized nomogram and risk score to predict the 5-year risk of diabetes among Chinese adults with prediabetes. METHODS There were 26 018 participants with prediabetes at baseline in this retrospective cohort study. We randomly stratified participants into two cohorts for training (n = 12 947) and validation (n = 13 071). The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) model was applied to select the most significant variables among candidate variables. And we further established a stepwise Cox proportional hazards model to screen out the risk factors based on the predictors chosen by the LASSO model. We presented the model with a nomogram. The model's discrimination, clinical use and calibration were assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, decision curve and calibration analysis. The associated risk factors were also categorized according to clinical cut-points or tertials to create the diabetes risk score model. Based on the total score, we divided it into four risk categories: low, middle, high and extremely high. We also evaluated our diabetes risk score model's performance. RESULTS We developed a simple nomogram and risk score that predicts the risk of prediabetes by using the variables age, triglyceride, fasting blood glucose, body mass index, alanine aminotransferase, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and family history of diabetes. The area under the ROC curve of the nomogram was 0.8146 (95% CI 0.8035-0.8258) and 0.8147 (95% CI 0.8035-0.8259) for the training and validation cohort, respectively. The calibration curve showed a perfect fit between predicted and observed diabetes risks at 5 years. Decision curve analysis presented the clinical use of the nomogram, and there was a wide range of alternative threshold probability spectrums. A total risk score of 0 to 2.5, 3 to 4.5, 5 to 7.5 and 8 to 13.5 is associated with low, middle, high and extremely high diabetes risk status, respectively. CONCLUSIONS We developed and validated a personalized prediction nomogram and risk score for 5-year diabetes risk among Chinese adults with prediabetes, identifying individuals at a high risk of developing diabetes. Doctors and other healthcare professionals can easily and quickly use our diabetes score model to assess the diabetes risk status in patients with prediabetes. In addition, the nomogram model and risk score we developed need to be validated in a prospective cohort study.

Abstract
The relationship between the weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) and newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (T2D) remains uncertain. This study intended to explore the association between the WWI and the incidence of newly diagnosed T2D among participants in rural areas of China. In the Northeast China Rural Cardiovascular Health Study, 9205 non-diabetic individuals (mean age 53 ± 10, 53.1% women) without T2D were included at baseline during 2012-2013. They were followed up from 2015 to 2017. WWI was calculated as waist circumference (cm) divided by the square root of weight (kg). We used multivariate logistic regression models to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the probability of new diagnoses across three WWI categories. A total of 358 participants had been diagnosed with T2D during a median follow-up of 4.6 years. After adjusting for potential confounders, compared with the lowest WWI category (<9.79 cm/√kg in men; <10.06 in women), men with WWI 10.06-10.72 and ≥10.37 cm/√kg showed OR (95%CI) for T2D 1.200 (0.816, 1.767) and 1.604 (1.088, 2.364), respectively, while women with WWI 10.06-10.72 and ≥10.37 cm/√kg showed ORs (95%CIs) for T2D 1.191 (0.703, 2.018) and 1.604 (1.088, 2.364), respectively. The ORs were generally consistent on subgroup analysis by gender, age, body mass index, and current smoking and drinking status. Increasing WWI was significantly associated with a higher incidence of newly diagnosed T2D among rural Chinese adults. Our findings help clarify the harmful effect of increasing WWI on newly diagnosed T2D and provide evidence for formulating healthcare policy in rural China.
