BMC Public Health 2023; 23:2519. [PMID: 38102585 PMCID: PMC10724980 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-023-17454-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Adiposity and insulin resistance (IR) are closely associated with hypertension; however, the role of interactions between obesity phenotypes and IR in hypertension is unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the interactions of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and body fat percentage (BF%) with IR on hypertension risk. METHODS We analyzed data from 4888 participants (mean age 57 years, 41.2% men) in the China Northwest Natural Population Cohort, Ningxia Project. BMI, WC, and BF% were determined using bioelectrical impedance analysis devices. IR was estimated using a homeostasis model assessment index (HOMA-IR). Multivariable-adjusted logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between HOMA-IR and hypertension risk. We calculated the relative excess risk and attributable proportion with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to assess whether adiposity phenotypes modified the effect of HOMA-IR on hypertension risk. RESULTS The crude prevalence of hypertension was 52.2%. The multivariable-adjusted odds ratio of HOMA-IR was 1.80 (95% CI: 1.23-2.65) for the risk of hypertension in the highest versus the lowest quartiles, but this association became marginal in models further adjusting for BMI, WC, and BF% (P for trend = 0.056). Relative excess risk and attributable proportion for interaction between high HOMA-IR and high BF% were 0.32 (0.04-0.59) and 0.33 (0.06-0.60), respectively. Additionally, high truncal and leg BF% and high HOMA-IR accounted for the hypertension risk in women, but not in men. We did not observe any significant interactions between BMI or WC and HOMA-IR on hypertension. CONCLUSION BF% modified the association between IR and increased risk of hypertension in women with high truncal and leg BF%, but not in men.

Sex-specific differences in the association between metabolically healthy overweight/obesity and the risk of hypertension in Chinese ethnic minorities. Endocrine 2023; 80:317-327. [PMID: 36708464 DOI: 10.1007/s12020-023-03308-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2022] [Accepted: 01/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/29/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To estimate and compare sex-specific differences between metabolically healthy overweight/obesity (MHOO) and the risk of hypertension among Dong, Bouyei, and Miao adults in southwest China. METHODS MHOO was diagnosed when the patient had a body mass index ≥24 kg/m2 and the presence of ≤1 component of metabolic syndrome. The main outcome was the occurrence of hypertension after the diagnosis or measurement by a physician at the baseline survey. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) between MHOO and the risk of hypertension. RESULTS We enrolled 16,433 Chinese Dong, Bouyei, and Miao adults. Using the metabolically healthy normal weight (MHNW) as a reference and after adjusting for confounders, the association between MHOO and the risk of hypertension was stronger in Dong (OR = 1.46, 95% CI: 1.07-2.00) and Miao (OR = 2.05, 95% CI: 1.48-2.85) men and did not exist in Bouyei men (OR = 1.14, 95% CI: 0.81-1.60). After adjusting for the age, the association between MHOO and the risk of hypertension was stronger in men than in women among Dong adults aged 30-59 years (OR = 1.64, 95% CI: 1.12-2.40) and did not differ between men and women among Dong adults aged 60-79 years or among Miao or Bouyei adults. CONCLUSION The results of this study demonstrated sex-specific differences in the association between MHOO and the risk of hypertension and that sex-specific differences further differed among Dong, Bouyei, and Miao adults.

The relationship between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and the severity of COVID-19 disease and its mortality. Sci Rep 2021; 11:17594. [PMID: 34475485 PMCID: PMC8413335 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-97017-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2021] [Accepted: 08/10/2021] [Indexed: 01/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Supplemental vitamin D can reduce the risk and mortality of viral pneumonia. The relationship between 25 hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels and the severity and mortality of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was evaluated. In this cross-sectional study, the admitted patients with COVID-19 were categorized as mild, moderate, severe, and critical based on clinical and radiologic characteristics. Calcium, phosphorus, albumin, creatinine, and serum 25(OH)D were measured and their correlation with the severity of disease and mortality were analyzed. During 2 months, 508 patients (442 patients in general wards and 66 patients in the intensive care unit (ICU)) were included. The participants were 56 ± 17 years old (52% male, 37% with comorbidity). Concerning severity, 13%, 42%, 36%, and 9% had mild, moderate, severe, and critical diseases, respectively. The mortality rate was 10.8%. Admission to ICU, severity of disease and mortality decreased significantly across quartiles of 25(OH)D. According to multivariate logistic regression analysis, disease mortality had a positive correlation with age and had a negative correlation with the serum level of 25(OH)D, calcium, and albumin. In hospitalized patients with COVID-19, low 25(OH)D was associated with severe disease and increased ICU admission and mortality rate.

Association between metabolically healthy obesity/overweight and cardiovascular disease risk: A representative cohort study in Taiwan. PLoS One 2021; 16:e0246378. [PMID: 33524067 PMCID: PMC7850496 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0246378] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2020] [Accepted: 01/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives To investigate the relationship between metabolically healthy obesity and cardiovascular disease risk in Taiwanese individuals. Methods Taiwanese individuals were recruited from a nationwide, representative community-based prospective cohort study and classified according to body mass index as follows: normal weight (18.5–23.9 kilogram (kg)/meter(m)2) and obesity/overweight (≥24 kg/m2). Participants without diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia and who did not meet the metabolic syndrome without waist circumference criteria were considered metabolically healthy. The study end points were cardiovascular disease morbidity and mortality. Multivariable adjusted hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals were obtained from a Cox regression analysis. Results Among 5 358 subjects (mean [standard deviation] age, 44.5 [15.3] years; women, 48.2%), 1 479 were metabolically healthy with normal weight and 491 were metabolically healthy with obesity. The prevalence of metabolically healthy obesity/overweight was 8.6% in the Taiwanese general population, which included individuals who were >20 years old, not pregnant, and did not have CVD (n = 5,719). In the median follow-up period of 13.7 years, 439 cardiovascular disease events occurred overall and 24 in the metabolically healthy obesity group. Compared with the reference group, the metabolically healthy obesity group had a significantly higher cardiovascular disease risk (adjusted hazard ratio: 1.74, 95% confidence interval: 1.02, 2.99). Conclusions Individuals with metabolically healthy obesity have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and require aggressive body weight control for cardiovascular disease control.

The Relationship between Metabolically Healthy Obesity and the Risk of Cardiovascular Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. J Clin Med 2019; 8:jcm8081228. [PMID: 31443279 PMCID: PMC6723711 DOI: 10.3390/jcm8081228] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2019] [Revised: 08/07/2019] [Accepted: 08/12/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in individuals with metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) is unclear. We searched databases from inception to May 2019. Data were pooled using a random effects model. Newcastle-Ottawa Scale assessment was performed. Primary and secondary outcomes were CVD risk and all-cause mortality. Forty-three studies involving 4,822,205 cases were included. The median percentage of females, age and duration of follow-up was 52%, 49.9 years and 10.6 years, respectively. The mean Newcastle-Ottawa Scale score of the articles was 7.9 ± 1.0. Compared to individuals with a metabolically healthy normal weight, individuals with MHO had higher adjusted risk of CVD and all-cause mortality. We identified a significant linear dose-response relationship between body mass index (BMI) and CVD risk among metabolically healthy individuals (p < 0.001); every unit increase in BMI increased the CVD risk. Multivariate meta-regression analysis showed that an increased proportion of women and age resulted in the risk of CVD affected by MHO reduction (p = 0.014, p = 0.030, respectively). Age and sex explained the observed heterogeneity and reported the adjusted R2. MHO resulted in a significantly increased risk for CVD; therefore, long-term weight loss should be encouraged.
