Triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio is correlated with metabolic diseases. The prevalence of sarcopenia is significantly higher in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients compared with healthy controls. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the correlation of TG/HDL-C ratio with muscle mass in T2DM patients.
Our study consists of 1048 T2DM inpatients recruited from the department of endocrinology. Skeletal muscle index (SMI) was detected with a dual energy X-ray absorptiometry method. Low muscle mass was diagnosed using the criteria of SMI less than 7.0 kg/m (in male subjects) or 5.4 kg/m (in female subjects).
The prevalence of low muscle mass was 20.9% and 14.5% in male and female groups respectively. SMI was correlated with TG/HDL ratio after adjustment for age, duration of diabetes, diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and HbA1c in male subgroup. In female subgroup, SMI was associated with TG/HDL ratio after adjustment for age and DBP.
Higher TG/HDL-C ratio is correlated with muscle mass in T2DM patients.
甘油三酯/高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(TG/HDL-C)比值与代谢性疾病相关。与健康对照组相比,2 型糖尿病(T2DM)患者的肌肉减少症患病率明显更高。本研究旨在评估 T2DM 患者中 TG/HDL-C 比值与肌肉量的相关性。
我们的研究纳入了 1048 名内分泌科的 T2DM 住院患者。使用双能 X 射线吸收法检测骨骼肌指数(SMI)。低肌肉量的诊断标准为 SMI 男性<7.0kg/m,女性<5.4kg/m。
男性和女性组的低肌肉量患病率分别为 20.9%和 14.5%。在调整了年龄、糖尿病病程、舒张压(DBP)和糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)后,男性亚组的 SMI 与 TG/HDL 比值相关。在女性亚组中,调整年龄和 DBP 后,SMI 与 TG/HDL 比值相关。
T2DM 患者中较高的 TG/HDL-C 比值与肌肉量相关。
