Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) have been proven to be valuable predictors of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The aim of this study was to investigate the association between GGT/HDL-C ratio and incident T2DM.
The study retrospectively analyzed 15453 participants from 2004 to 2015. Cox proportional hazards regression models and Kaplan-Meier curves were used to elucidate the effect of GGT/HDL-C ratio on T2DM. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis was performed to explore any non-linear correlation between GGT/HDL-C ratio and the risk of T2DM. The predictive performance of GGT, HDL-C and GGT/HDL-C ratio for T2DM was evaluated utilizing receiver-operating-characteristic (ROC) curves.
During a median follow-up of 5.39 years, 373 cases of incident T2DM were observed. Kaplan-Meier curves showed that the cumulative probabilities of T2DM increased in the participants with higher GGT/HDL-C ratio significantly (P < 0.001). Cox models further clarified that high GGT/HDL-C ratio was an independent risk factor for T2DM (HR = 1.01, 95% CI = 1.00-1.01, P = 0.011). Linear positive correlation between GGT/HDL-C ratio and the risk of T2DM was demonstrated through RCS analysis. In the ROC analysis, GGT/HDL-C ratio (AUC = 0.75, 95% CI = 0.73-0.77) showed competitive role in the prediction of T2DM compared with single GGT and HDL-C.
The GGT/HDL-C ratio could serve as a valuable predictor of T2DM, and the risk of T2DM increases in the condition of higher GGT/HDL-C ratio.
γ-谷氨酰转移酶(GGT)和高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL-C)已被证明是 2 型糖尿病(T2DM)的有价值的预测指标。本研究旨在探讨 GGT/HDL-C 比值与 T2DM 发病风险之间的关系。
本研究回顾性分析了 2004 年至 2015 年期间的 15453 名参与者。采用 Cox 比例风险回归模型和 Kaplan-Meier 曲线阐明 GGT/HDL-C 比值对 T2DM 的影响。采用限制性三次样条(RCS)分析探讨 GGT/HDL-C 比值与 T2DM 风险之间的非线性关系。利用受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线评估 GGT、HDL-C 和 GGT/HDL-C 比值对 T2DM 的预测性能。
在中位随访 5.39 年期间,观察到 373 例 T2DM 事件。Kaplan-Meier 曲线显示,随着 GGT/HDL-C 比值的升高,T2DM 的累积概率显著增加(P < 0.001)。Cox 模型进一步阐明,高 GGT/HDL-C 比值是 T2DM 的独立危险因素(HR = 1.01,95%CI = 1.00-1.01,P = 0.011)。RCS 分析表明,GGT/HDL-C 比值与 T2DM 风险之间呈线性正相关。在 ROC 分析中,GGT/HDL-C 比值(AUC = 0.75,95%CI = 0.73-0.77)在预测 T2DM 方面与单一 GGT 和 HDL-C 相比具有竞争力。
GGT/HDL-C 比值可作为 T2DM 的有价值的预测指标,随着 GGT/HDL-C 比值的升高,T2DM 的发病风险增加。
