ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate whether FTO gene SNP polymorphisms were associated with metabolic traits in Chinese children. Methods A total of 595 children aged between 6 and 17 years were enrolled. The five common SNPs in the FTO gene(rs1421085,rs17817449,rs8050136,rs3751812 and rs9939609)were genotyped. Metabolic compo-nents and insulin were measured. Results (1)The obese patients showed the components of the metabolic traits were significant difference compared to control group.(2)The allele frequency and the genotype distribution of the five SNPs were significant differences between two groups. Minor allele carriers of the five SNPs were associated with increased risks of childhood obesity compared with the wild-type genotype. (3)After adjustment of age, sex and BMI-z score,all of the five SNPs showed a trend towards higher SBP. In addition, rs3751812 and rs8050136 showed significant as-sociation with LDL-C and HOMA-IR levels. Conclusion The five common SNPs in the FTO gene contributes to the e-tiology of obesity and hypertension. The FTO gene polymorphisms (rs3751812 and rs8050136)are found to be associ-ated with increased insulin resistance and plasma LDL levels.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To compare and evaluate clinical applications of two definitions of metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents, which was developed by Pediatric Academy of Chinese Medical Association in 2012 (Chinese definition) and by International Diabetes Federation in 2007 (IDF definition), respectively.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>593 obese children and adolescents aged 10 ≊16 y from July 2006 to December 2012 were enrolled in the study. The diagnostic concordance of two definitions for metabolic syndrome and individual components was estimated, and their sensitivity and specificity for detecting insulin resistance and early macrovascular complications were compared.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The concordance between two definitions for diagnosing metabolic syndrome was good (kappa=0.626); as for detecting the individual components, the Kappa concordance index were 1.000, 0.803, 0.780, 0.734 and 0.594 for hypertriglyceridemia, hyperglycemia, cholesterol abnormality and hypertension, respectively. The incidence of insulin resistance and early macrovascular complications, detected by the two definitions, were both increased with increasing number of abnormal components. The sensitivity and specificity for detecting insulin resistance in children with metabolic syndrome were 54.5% and 65.7% by Chinese definition, and 36.1% and 83.1% by IDF definition; while the sensitivity and specificity for detecting early macrovascular complications were 58.3% and 55.8% by Chinese definition, and 37.3% and 70.8% by IDF definition. After adjusting for age and sex, compared to the obese children and adolescents without metabolic syndrome, the odds ratios of insulin resistance and early macrovascular complications were 2.166 (P<0.001) and 1.771(P=0.008) for children with metabolic syndrome diagnosed by Chinese definition, and the odds ratio of insulin resistance and early macrovascular complications were 2.618 (P<0.001) and 1.357 (P=0.190) by IDF definition.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The concordance between Chinese and IDF definitions for diagnosing metabolic syndrome in Chinese obese children and adolescents is good. Compared to IDF definition, Chinese definition is more sensitive for hypertension, hyperglycemia and hypercholesterolemia, thus it can more effectively detect insulin resistance and early macrovascular complication.</p>

ABSTRACT

The metabolic syndrome is composed of various metabolic disorders,which is associated with cardiovascular disease.Dyslipidaemia in the metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents,as defined by American Academy of Pediatrics and Chinese Society of Pediatrics,is characterised by elevated triglycerides and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol as well as low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations.Good evidence confirms that dyslipidaemia in children plays a vital role in the development of adulthood disease,such as atherosclerosis and hypertension,also closely related to metabolic syndrome,insulin resistance and hyperglycemia.Here we reviewed the the role of dyslipidemia in metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents.
