Non-Asian body mass index (BMI) classifications are commonly used as a risk factor for high fasting blood glucose (FBG). We investigated the incidence and factors associated with high FBG among people living with HIV in the Asia-Pacific region, using a World Health Organization BMI classification specific to Asian populations.
This study included people living with HIV enrolled in a longitudinal cohort study from 2003 to 2019, receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART), and without prior tuberculosis. BMI at ART initiation was categorized using Asian BMI classifications: underweight (<18.5 kg/m ), normal (18.5-22.9 kg/m ), overweight (23-24.9 kg/m ), and obese (≥25 kg/m ). High FBG was defined as a single post-ART FBG measurement ≥126 mg/dL. Factors associated with high FBG were analyzed using Cox regression models stratified by site.
A total of 3939 people living with HIV (63% male) were included. In total, 50% had a BMI in the normal weight range, 23% were underweight, 13% were overweight, and 14% were obese. Median age at ART initiation was 34 years (interquartile range 29-41). Overall, 8% had a high FBG, with an incidence rate of 1.14 per 100 person-years. Factors associated with an increased hazard of high FBG included being obese (≥25 kg/m ) compared with normal weight (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.79; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.31-2.44; p < 0.001) and older age compared with those aged ≤30 years (31-40 years: HR = 1.47; 95% CI 1.08-2.01; 41-50 years: HR = 2.03; 95% CI 1.42-2.90; ≥51 years: HR = 3.19; 95% CI 2.17-4.69; p < 0.001).
People living with HIV with BMI >25 kg/m were at increased risk of high FBG. This indicates that regular assessments should be performed in those with high BMI, irrespective of the classification used.
非亚洲体质指数(BMI)分类通常被用作空腹血糖高(FBG)的风险因素。我们使用特定于亚洲人群的世界卫生组织 BMI 分类,调查了亚太地区 HIV 感染者中 FBG 升高的发生率和相关因素。
本研究纳入了 2003 年至 2019 年期间参加一项纵向队列研究、正在接受抗逆转录病毒治疗(ART)且无既往结核病的 HIV 感染者。ART 起始时的 BMI 采用亚洲 BMI 分类进行分类:体重不足(<18.5 kg/m )、正常(18.5-22.9 kg/m )、超重(23-24.9 kg/m )和肥胖(≥25 kg/m )。高 FBG 定义为单次 ART 后 FBG 测量值≥126 mg/dL。使用 Cox 回归模型对高 FBG 相关因素进行分析,按地点分层。
共纳入 3939 名 HIV 感染者(63%为男性)。总体而言,50%的人 BMI 处于正常体重范围,23%体重不足,13%超重,14%肥胖。ART 起始时的中位年龄为 34 岁(四分位距 29-41)。总体而言,8%的人有高 FBG,发病率为每 100 人年 1.14 例。与正常体重者相比,肥胖(≥25 kg/m )者高 FBG 的发生风险增加(风险比[HR]为 1.79;95%置信区间[CI]为 1.31-2.44;p<0.001),与年龄≤30 岁者相比,年龄 31-40 岁者(HR 为 1.47;95% CI 为 1.08-2.01;41-50 岁者:HR 为 2.03;95% CI 为 1.42-2.90;≥51 岁者:HR 为 3.19;95% CI 为 2.17-4.69;p<0.001)。
BMI>25 kg/m 的 HIV 感染者发生高 FBG 的风险增加。这表明,无论使用何种分类方法,都应定期对高 BMI 者进行评估。
