We evaluated the specific association between a Fitness Fat Index (FFI) and Alzheimer's-specific mortality among a national sample of the broader U.S. adult population.
FFI was calculated as cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) divided by waist-to-height ratio (WHR). Data from the 1999-2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) were used to identify 16,146 participants, ages 20-85. Data from participants in these cycles were linked to death certificate data from the National Death Index. Person-months of follow-up were calculated from the date of the interview until date of death or censoring on December 31, 2011, whichever came first.
In a Cox proportional hazard model, for every 1 FFI unit increase, participants had a 14% reduced hazard of Alzheimer-specific death (HR=0.86; 95% CI: 0.83-0.90; P<0.001). When including diabetes and hypertension (via physician-diagnosis) as covariates, results were unchanged (HR=0.87; 95% CI: 0.82-0.91; P<0.001). Results were also unchanged when restricting the sample to those 50+years (HR=0.92; 95% CI: 0.88-0.97; P=0.005) or stratifying by men (HR=0.85; 95% CI: 0.81-0.91; P<0.001) or women (HR=0.86; 95% CI: 0.79-0.94; P=0.002).
In this national sample of individuals at risk for Alzheimer's disease, increased FFI was associated with reduced risk of Alzheimer's-specific death. Thus, a more favorable fitness-to-fatness ratio is associated with reduced risk of Alzheimer's-specific mortality, underscoring the importance of fitness promoting and fatness reducing strategies.
我们在美国成年人群体的全国样本中评估了健康脂肪指数(FFI)与阿尔茨海默病特异性死亡率之间的具体关联。
FFI的计算方法是心肺适能(CRF)除以腰高比(WHR)。利用1999 - 2006年国家健康与营养检查调查(NHANES)的数据确定了16146名年龄在20 - 85岁之间的参与者。这些周期参与者的数据与国家死亡指数的死亡证明数据相关联。随访的人月数从访谈日期计算至死亡日期或2011年12月31日的截尾日期,以先到者为准。
在Cox比例风险模型中,FFI每增加1个单位,参与者阿尔茨海默病特异性死亡风险降低14%(风险比[HR]=0.86;95%置信区间[CI]:0.83 - 0.90;P<0.001)。当将糖尿病和高血压(通过医生诊断)作为协变量纳入时,结果不变(HR=0.87;95% CI:0.82 - 0.91;P<0.001)。当将样本限制为50岁及以上人群时(HR=0.92;95% CI:0.88 - 0.97;P=0.005),或者按男性(HR=0.85;95% CI:0.81 - 0.91;P<0.001)或女性(HR=0.86;95% CI:0.79 - 0.94;P=0.002)分层时,结果也不变。
在这个有患阿尔茨海默病风险的全国样本中,FFI升高与阿尔茨海默病特异性死亡风险降低相关。因此,更有利的健康与肥胖比例与阿尔茨海默病特异性死亡率降低相关,突出了促进健康和降低肥胖策略的重要性。
