Association of baseline and changes in adiponectin, homocysteine, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, and interleukin-10 levels and metabolic syndrome incidence: Tehran lipid and glucose study. Heliyon 2023; 9:e19911. [PMID: 37809533 PMCID: PMC10559325 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e19911] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2023] [Revised: 09/02/2023] [Accepted: 09/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is accompanied by chronic low-grade inflammation, and inflammatory markers like high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP), interleukin-6(IL-6), and homocysteine(Hcy) contribute to inflammation, obesity, and insulin resistance. Adiponectin(AdipoQ) and interleukin-10(IL-10) are anti-inflammatory markers that play protective roles in MetS. This study aimed to investigate the association between these biochemical marker changes and MetS in a sample of the Tehranian population during six years of follow-up. Methods In this longitudinal study, 340 adults at baseline and after a six-year follow-up, aged ≥18 years, were selected randomly from the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS). MetS was defined according to the Joint Interim Statement (JIS) criteria. Individuals were categorized into four groups based on their MetS status at baseline and follow-up: 1) non-MetS: participants who did not have MetS at both baseline and follow-up; 2) incident MetS: participants who did not have MetS at baseline but developed MetS during the follow-up ; 3) recovery MetS: participants who had MetS at baseline but no longer had MetS during the follow-up; 4) persistent MetS: participants who had MetS both at baseline and follow-up. Results The mean follow-up time was 6.1 years. There were 176 subjects in the non-MetS group, 35 in the incident MetS group, 41 in the recovery MetS group, and 88 in the persistent MetS group. Increases in the levels of both hs-CRP 1.40 (95% CI: 1.15, 1.71, p = 0.001) and IL-6 1.09 (95% CI: 1.03, 1.17, p = 0.004) significantly increased the odds of the incident and persistent MetS, respectively. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was more than 0.69 (p < 0.000) for hs-CRP in predicting MetS incidence and more than 0.86 (p < 0.000) for IL-6 in predicting MetS persistence. Conclusion After a six-year average follow-up, hs-CRP and IL-6 levels were deemed more reliable predictors of MetS incidence and persistence, respectively.

Kim YK, Yang YM. An analysis of the associations of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and uric acid with metabolic syndrome components in Korean adults by sex: a cross-sectional study using the Korea national health and nutrition examination survey 2016-2018. BMC Endocr Disord 2023; 23:163. [PMID: 37537612 PMCID: PMC10398993 DOI: 10.1186/s12902-023-01417-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2022] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Low-grade inflammation plays a role in the pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome (MetS), and measuring levels of inflammatory molecules, such as high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), may indicate Mets progression. Serum uric acid (SUA) has also been identified as an independent risk factor for MetS. This study aimed to investigate the association between MetS components and levels of serum hs-CRP and SUA using representative and reliable data for the Korean population. METHODS This study used the data of the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2016-2018, a cross-sectional and nationally representative survey performed by the Korean Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. RESULTS We analysed the data of 13,454 individuals. High hs-CRP levels were observed in 1,164 (8.7%) subjects while 3,296 (24.5%) subjects had high SUA levels. Moreover, hs-CRP was negatively correlated with serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL) (OR, 1.703; 95% CI, 1.431-2.027). When stratified by sex, this trend remained, but the correlation was stronger in women than in men. Furthermore, high SUA levels were significantly associated with hypertension (HTN) (OR, 1.399; 95% CI, 1.210-1.616), hypertriglyceridemia (OR, 1.735; 95% CI, 1.486-2.026), and low HDL (OR, 1.257; 95% CI, 1.106-1.429), but not with diabetes mellitus (DM) (OR, 0.478; 95% CI, 0.382-0.597). When grouped by sex, this trend remained, however, all MetS components were found to be more prevalent in women with high SUA. CONCLUSIONS Our findings showed that low HDL was more prevalent in subjects with high hs-CRP, and high SUA levels were observed in subjects with HTN, hypertriglyceridemia, and low HDL. However, the prevalence of high SUA was lower in diabetic subjects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Serum uric acid to creatinine ratio (SUA/Cr) may be associated with metabolic syndrome (MS). Here, we investigated the correlation between SUA/Cr and MS in Chinese residents aged ≥ 45 years. METHODS AND RESULTS Data were obtained from the 2015 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) database. MS was diagnosed using the Chinese Diabetes Society 2017 criteria. We grouped the population according to SUA/Cr quartiles and compared the index differences between groups. We used spearman correlation analysis and binary logistic regression. The possible dose-response association of SUA/Cr with MS were analyzed using restricted cubic spline model. Of 12,946 included participants, 3370 (26.0%) had MS, and 1900 (56.4%) were female. After adjusting for multiple confounders, binary logistic regression analysis showed that compared with Quartile 1, the odds ratio (95% confidence interval) of the MS risk was 1.29 (1.09-1.52), 1.47 (1.25-1.74), and 1.80 (1.53-2.12) in Quartiles 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The restricted cubic spline model indicated a significant nonlinear dose-response association (Poverall < 0.001, Pnon-linearity = 0.029) between SUA/Cr and strength of MS prevalence association; MS risk began increasing when SUA/Cr > 6.22. CONCLUSIONS A significant positive correlation existed between SUA/Cr and MS risk in Chinese individuals aged ≥ 45 years, which may be a new predictive marker for MS risk.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To establish the prevalence of hyperuricaemia in an elderly Finnish cohort and to assess its association with comorbidities and mortality. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING Good Ageing in Lahti Region study, Finland 2002-2012 (mortality data analysed until 2018). PARTICIPANTS 2673 participants (mean age 64 years; 47% men). PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES Prevalence of hyperuricaemia in the study population was detected. Associations between hyperuricaemia and mortality were assessed using multivariable adjusted Cox proportional hazards models. METHODS Data from a prospective, population-based study of elderly people (52-76 years) in the Lahti region, Finland, were used. Information on serum uric acid (SUA) levels as well as several other laboratory variables, comorbidities, lifestyle habits and socioeconomic factors was collected, and the association between SUA level and mortality in a 15-year follow-up period was analysed. RESULTS Of 2673 elderly Finnish persons included in the study 1197 (48%) were hyperuricaemic. Hyperuricaemia was extremely prevalent in men (60%). There was an association between elevated SUA and mortality which remained after adjustment for potential confounding factors (age, gender, education, smoking status, body mass index, hypertension and dyslipidaemia). The adjusted HR for all-cause mortality among clearly hyperuricaemic individuals with SUA≥420 µmol/L compared with normouricaemic individuals (SUA<360 µmol/L) was 1.32 (95% CI 1.05 to 1.60) in women and 1.29 (95% CI 1.05 to 1.60) in men. In slightly hyperuricaemic individuals (SUA 360-420 µmol/L) the corresponding HRs were 1.03 (95% CI 0.78 to 1.35) and 1.11 (95% CI 0.89 to 1.39). CONCLUSIONS Hyperuricaemia is very prevalent in the elderly Finnish population and is independently associated with increased mortality.

Abstract
İNTRODUCTION: Patients with normal coronary arteries in whom increased vasospasm cannot be detected with the stress test should be evaluated in terms of cardiac syndrome x (CSX). İnflammatory systems are effective in endothelial activation and dysfunction in CSX. The systemic immune inflammation index (SII) is thought to be an important factor in determining the course of diseases, especially in infectious diseases or other diseases, as an indicator of the inflammation process. The aim of this study is to determine the role of SII levels in the diagnosis of CSX disease. METHODS The study group included 80 patients who applied to the cardiology department of Fırat University with typical anginal complaints between October 2021 and April 2022, and were diagnosed with ischemia after the myocardial perfusion scan, and then coronary angiography was performed and normal coronary arteries were observed. RESULTS When the study and control groups were examined according to age, gender and body mass index, hypertension, smoking, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia and family history, no statistical significant difference was observed between the groups. It was observed that there was a significant difference between the high sensitive C- reactive protin levels of the individuals in the study and control groups (p = 0.028). SII levels measured in samples taken from patients were significantly higher than control subjects (p = 0.003). SII cutoff at admission was 582 with 82% sensitivity and 84% specificity (area under the curve 0.972; 95% CI:0.95-0.98;p < 0.001). CONCLUSION It has been demonstrated that systemic SII parameters, which can be simply calculated with the data obtained from the complete blood count and do not require additional costs, can contribute to the prediction of CSX disease.

Abstract
(1) Background: The second-generation antipsychotics (SGAPs) induce metabolic and inflammatory side effects, but documentation of their effects on the liver and kidneys is scarce. Aim: To study the three-year fluctuation of selected markers of renal and hepatic function in forensic psychiatric patients receiving SGAPs for more than five years. (2) Methods: Thirty-five forensic psychiatric patients (N = 35) were classified into two groups according to the type of SGAPs used for their treatment and the relevant risk of weight gain and metabolic complications. The three-year medication history, anthropometric data and biochemical data relevant to renal and hepatic function were retrieved from the individual medical files, specifically: serum levels of urea, uric acid, creatinine, alkaline phosphatase and amylase; the liver function enzymes, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT), serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase(γ-GT), and also the inflammatory index C-reactive protein (CRP). (3) Results: The patients receiving the SGAPs with a low risk for weight gain showed no significant fluctuation in the biochemical markers over the three-year period. The patients receiving the SGAPs with a high risk for weight gain showed significant differences between at least two measurements of uric acid (p = 0.015), SGOT (p = 0.018) and SGPT (p = 0.051). They showed significantly higher levels of creatinine in the third year compared to the second year (p = 0.029), and SGOT in the second year compared to the first (p = 0.038), and lower levels of SGPT in the third year compared to the second (p = 0.024). (4) Conclusion:In addition to consideration of possible metabolic and inflammatory complications, the choice of an antipsychotic drug for long-term treatment should also take into account the risk of hepatotoxicity and kidney damage.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome can affect the inflammatory state which results in increased high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs CRP) and decreased adiponectin levels. Tempe gembus is a functional food that can reduce the risk of metabolic syndrome through the inflammatory pathway. This study applied a quasi experimental method, with a post-test only control group design. Sprague Dawley rats (n=30) were divided into 2 control groups (K- and K+) and 3 treatment groups (P1, P2, P3) which were given a 4-wk diet that included 2.5 g (P1), 5 g (P2), and 7.5 g (P3) of tempe gembus. Adiponectin and hs CRP levels were measured with ELISA. Statistical analysis was done with a one-way ANOVA test and a Kruskal Wallis test. It apprears that administering tempe gembus in these amounts can reduce the hs CRP levels (p=0.037) and increase adiponectin levels in rats with metabolic syndrome (p=0.008). This research has shown that a 2.5 g of tempe gembus can have a strong effect on hs CRP and 5 g of tempe gembus have a strong effect on adiponectin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our study analyzes the frequency and risk factors of hyperuricemia and the use of allopurinol in a representative cohort of the older Polish adult population. METHODS The analysis was a part of a cross-sectional PolSenior study on aging in Poland. The complete medication data were available in 4873 out of 4979 community dwelling respondents aged 65 and over. Serum uric acid concentrations were evaluated in 4028 participants (80.9% of the cohort). RESULTS Hyperuricemia was observed in 28.2% of women and 24.7% of men. Ten risk factors of hyperuricemia were selected based on multivariable LASSO logistic regression analysis. Nine factors showed significant odds ratios: eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 (OR = 4.10), hypertriglyceridemia (OR = 1.88), obesity (OR = 1.75), heart failure (1.70), CRP > 3.0 mg/dL (OR = 1.64), coronary artery disease (OR = 1.30), use of loop-diuretics (OR = 4.20), hydrochlorothiazide (OR = 2.96), and thiazide-like diuretics (OR = 2.81). Allopurinol was used by 2.8% of men and 1.8% of women. The therapy was considered effective in 46.7% of men and 53.3% of women. CONCLUSIONS Hyperuricemia was present in 23.1% (95% CI: 21.8-24.4) of the older Polish population. The frequency of hyperuricemia increases with age, reaching 30.5% in men and 33.7% in women aged 90 years or more. Chronic kidney disease, obesity, heart failure, hypertriglyceridemia, and the use of diuretics were the strongest risk factors for hyperuricemia in older adults. The treatment with allopurinol was ineffective in more than half of participants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to compare dietary macronutrient intake and physical activity level (PAL) between community-based samples of Iranian adults with metabolic syndrome (MetS+) and without metabolic syndrome (MetS-). METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted among 3800 men and women aged 35-65 years. The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) criteria were used to define MetS. A 24-hour recall was used to evaluate dietary intake. The James and Schofield human energy requirements equations were used to calculate PAL and questions were categorized into time spent on activities during work (including housework), during non-work time, and in bed. RESULTS The mean ± standard deviation (SD)age of the MetS+ and MetS- subjects was, respectively, 48.8 ± 7.8 years (521 men and 1178 women) and 47.6 ± 7.5 years (714 men and 1222 women) (P = 0.930). The mean energy intake was higher in the MetS+ men compared with MetS- men (1977.4 ± 26.6 vs. 1812.7 ± 21.7 Kcal; P < 0.001). Crude and energy-adjusted intake from total fat was lower in MetS+ women compared with MetS- women (both P < 0.010). PALs were lower in MetS+ compared with MetS- participants (P < 0.001). After adjusting for confounders, no significant association was observed between the intake of individual macronutrients and MetS. In contrast, PAL was inversely associated with the incidence of MetS [OR = 0.34 (95% CI: 0.17-0.57); P < 0.001]. CONCLUSION In the current study, there was an inverse relationship between PAL and the risk of MetS, but no association between individual dietary macronutrients intake and the incidence of MetS.

Abstract
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is regarded as incipient dementia. Patients with MCI have increased risk of later progressing to dementia. Blood uric acid (UA) is an important non-enzymatic antioxidant in peripheral circulation, and plays an unconfirmed protective role in MCI. Furthermore, obesity-induced inflammation, which affects UA metabolism and MCI onset, might regulate such protective role. Thus, the aim of the study was to determine the relationship of UA to MCI and the potential effect from inflammation. The study consisted of 933 MCI patients diagnosed by neuropsychological scales and 933 controls with normal cognitive function. All subjects were ≥ 60 years old. There were 378 obese subjects in MCI group and 410 obese subjects in control group. A relationship between lower serum UA levels and higher risk of MCI was found in all MCI patients and non-obese MCI patients (OR: 0.78, 95% CI: 0.72 ~ 0.86; OR: 0.66, 95% CI: 0.55 ~ 0.78), but not in obese MCI patients (OR: 0.94, 95% CI: 0.81 ~ 1.12). Serum UA and hypersensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels were higher in obese MCI patients than in non-obese MCI patients (P < 0.001 and P < 0.001). Serum UA levels showed a positive linear correlation with serum hs-CRP levels in obese MCI patients (r = 0.284, P < 0.001), but not in non-obese MCI patients (r = 0.030, P = 0.481). In conclusion, we show the significant association between lower serum UA levels and higher risk of MCI in non-obese subjects. Obesity-induced inflammation may weaken such relationship.

Abstract
Objective. Recent studies have shown that hyperuricemia (HUA) is associated with hypertension, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, and metabolic syndrome (MetS). We aimed to examine the relationship of serum UA with Acanthosis nigricans (AN) and related metabolic indices in obese patients. Methods. A cross-sectional study with 411 obese patients recruited from our department was analyzed in this study. Weight, body mass index (BMI), UA, lipid profile, liver function, and renal function were measured in all participants. Oral glucose tolerance tests were performed, and serum glucose, insulin, and C peptide were measured at 0, 30, 60, 120, and 180 min. Results. AN group had higher serum UA levels than OB group. Circulating UA levels were associated with BMI, dyslipidemia, hypertension, IR, and AN. In logistic regression analyses (multivariable-adjusted), a high serum UA level was associated with high odds ratios (ORs) (95% confidence interval [CI]) for AN in females (ORs = 3.00 and 95% CI [1.02-8.84]) and males (ORs = 6.07 and 95% CI [2.16-17.06]) in the highest quartile (Q4) of serum UA. Conclusions. Serum UA levels were positively associated with multiple metabolic abnormalities including obesity, hypertension, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, and AN and may be an important risk factor in the development of AN; further evidences in vitro and in vivo are needed to investigate the direct or indirect relationship.
