The complex relationship between obesity and dyslipidemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains an area of interest but is not fully understood. This study aimed to evaluate the intricate links between atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), body mass index (BMI), and T2DM risk.
Based on data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, this analysis comprised 6754 individuals aged 45 and over, free of T2DM in 2011. BMI and AIP were the exposures, with T2DM incidence as the primary focus. Logistic regression models generated odds ratios (ORs), and a thorough decomposition of BMI's impact on T2DM revealed natural indirect and direct effects. The study also examined the complex interactions and combined effects of these two exposures.
By the end of 2018, 972 individuals were diagnosed with T2DM. The AIP played a significant association in the relationship between BMI and T2DM, explaining 21.7% and 18.9% of the association in different BMI ranges. A significant additive effect was observed between BMI and AIP, with a relative excess risk due to interaction of 0.62. BMI ≥ 24.0 kg/m and AIP above the median together conferred the highest risk of T2DM, with an OR of 2.31 and a 95% confidence interval (CI) of 1.92-2.79.
Exposure to overweight/obesity or high AIP raises T2DM risk among Chinese ≥ 45 years, AIP partly mediates BMI-T2DM link.
2型糖尿病(T2DM)中肥胖与血脂异常之间的复杂关系仍是一个备受关注的领域,但尚未完全明确。本研究旨在评估血浆致动脉粥样硬化指数(AIP)、体重指数(BMI)与T2DM风险之间的复杂联系。
基于中国健康与养老追踪调查的数据,本分析纳入了2011年时年龄在45岁及以上且无T2DM的6754名个体。以BMI和AIP作为暴露因素,以T2DM发病率作为主要研究重点。逻辑回归模型生成比值比(OR),对BMI对T2DM影响的全面分解揭示了自然间接效应和直接效应。该研究还考察了这两种暴露因素的复杂相互作用和联合效应。
截至2018年底,972人被诊断为T2DM。AIP在BMI与T2DM的关系中发挥了显著关联,在不同BMI范围内分别解释了该关联的21.7%和18.9%。观察到BMI与AIP之间存在显著的相加效应,交互作用导致的相对超额风险为0.62。BMI≥24.0 kg/m且AIP高于中位数共同赋予了最高的T2DM风险,OR为2.31,95%置信区间(CI)为1.92 - 2.79。
超重/肥胖或高AIP暴露会增加中国45岁及以上人群的T2DM风险,AIP部分介导了BMI与T2DM的联系。
