Although the prevalence of obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) among dialysis patients has been exceeding than general population, little is known regarding obesity and MetS in non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD). We aimed to find the magnitude of obesity and MetS and their associations with impaired renal function among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients.
A national survey of T2DM patients was collected in the Thai National Health Security Office database during 2014-5. The sampling frame was designated as distinct geographic regions throughout the country. A stratified two-stage cluster sampling was used to select the study population. Anthropometry and 12-hour fasting blood samples were obtained by trained personnel. BMI of ≥25 kg/m2 was classified as obesity. MetS was defined as having elevated waist circumference (>90 and >80 cm in men and women, respectively) plus any two of the followings: triglyceride ≥150 mg/dL, HDL-C <40 in men or <50 mg/dL in women, blood pressure ≥130/85 mmHg, and fasting blood sugar ≥100 mg/dL. CKD was defined as an impaired renal function (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73m2 according to the CKD-EPI equation). Logistic regression analysis was performed to examine the relationship between obesity and MetS with the presence of CKD.
A total of 32,616 diabetic patients were finally recruited from 997 hospitals. The mean age was 61.5±10.9 years with 67.5% women. Of the participants, 35.4% were CKD patients. The prevalence of obesity was 46.5% in CKD and 54.1% in non-CKD patients with T2DM (p<0.001). In contrast, the prevalence of MetS in CKD patients was higher than their non-CKD counterparts (71.3 vs 68.8%, p<0.001). Moreover, there was an association between the prevalence of MetS with CKD stage from 3a to 5 (70.1, 72.3, 73.4, and 72.7%, respectively, p trend = 0.02). MetS, but not obesity, had a significant association with CKD in T2DM patients after adjusting for age, sex, and comorbidities [OR 1.14; 95% CI 1.06-1.22, p<0.001]. When stratified by each component of MetS, only high serum triglyceride and low HDL-C levels were increased in patients with CKD stage 4 and 5 compared with CKD stage 3 (p<0.001) and had a significant relationship with impaired renal function.
There were relatively high prevalences of both obesity and MetS in T2DM patients. A higher prevalence of MetS, but lower prevalence of obesity, was observed among diabetic CKD group compared with their non-CKD counterparts. MetS, as a surrogate of insulin resistance, appeared to be more important than obesity in the development of impaired renal function in diabetic population.
尽管透析患者的肥胖症和代谢综合征(MetS)患病率已经超过了一般人群,但对于非透析慢性肾脏病(CKD)患者的肥胖症和 MetS 却知之甚少。我们旨在研究 2 型糖尿病(T2DM)患者中肥胖症和 MetS 的严重程度及其与肾功能受损的关系。
在 2014-5 年期间,我们从泰国国家健康保障办公室数据库中收集了一项针对 T2DM 患者的全国性调查。抽样框架指定为全国不同的地理区域。采用分层两阶段聚类抽样选择研究人群。由经过培训的人员测量人体测量学和 12 小时禁食血样。BMI≥25kg/m2 被归类为肥胖症。MetS 定义为腰围升高(男性>90cm,女性>80cm)加上以下任何两种情况:甘油三酯≥150mg/dL,男性 HDL-C<40mg/dL,女性<50mg/dL,血压≥130/85mmHg,空腹血糖≥100mg/dL。CKD 定义为肾功能受损(根据 CKD-EPI 方程估算的 eGFR<60mL/min/1.73m2)。使用 logistic 回归分析检查肥胖症和 MetS 与 CKD 存在之间的关系。
从 997 家医院共招募了 32616 名糖尿病患者。平均年龄为 61.5±10.9 岁,其中 67.5%为女性。参与者中,35.4%患有 CKD。在 CKD 和非 CKD 的 T2DM 患者中,肥胖症的患病率分别为 46.5%和 54.1%(p<0.001)。相比之下,CKD 患者的 MetS 患病率高于非 CKD 患者(71.3%比 68.8%,p<0.001)。此外,MetS 的患病率与 CKD 分期从 3a 到 5 期呈正相关(分别为 70.1%、72.3%、73.4%和 72.7%,p趋势=0.02)。调整年龄、性别和合并症后,MetS 而不是肥胖症与 T2DM 患者的 CKD 有显著关联[比值比 1.14;95%置信区间 1.06-1.22,p<0.001]。当按 MetS 的每个组成部分分层时,只有血清甘油三酯升高和高密度脂蛋白胆固醇降低在 CKD 4 期和 5 期患者中比 CKD 3 期患者更为明显(p<0.001),并且与肾功能受损有显著关系。
T2DM 患者中肥胖症和 MetS 的患病率均较高。与非 CKD 对照组相比,糖尿病 CKD 组的 MetS 患病率较高,而肥胖症患病率较低。作为胰岛素抵抗的替代指标,MetS 在糖尿病患者肾功能受损的发展中似乎比肥胖症更为重要。
