ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Este artigo investiga a prevalência de cintura hipertrigliceridêmica em bancários e sua associação com fatores socioeconômicos, laborais, comportamentais, antropométricos e de condições de saúde. Método: trata-se de um estudo transversal com 525 bancários. Para avaliação do fenótipo cintura hipertrigliceridêmica foi considerada a associação de circunferência da cintura e hipertrigliceridemia. Resultados: A investigação resultou em uma prevalência de fenótipo de 19,4%, sendo maior em homens, pessoas em idades avançadas, que vivem maritalmente e que trabalham na agência há mais de cinco anos. O fenótipo também se associou ao excesso de peso, HDL-c (high density lipoprotein) baixo, hiperlipidemia mista, elevada relação triglicerídeos/HDL-c e hipertensão arterial. Ter mais de 50 anos e estar acima do peso aumentava as chances de os bancários apresentarem o fenótipo. Ser do sexo feminino e ter níveis adequados de HDL-c mostraram-se fatores de proteção contra o fenótipo. Conclusão: A prevalência de cintura hipertrigliceridêmica entre bancários é alta e associa-se principalmente ao excesso de peso e perfil lipídico desfavorável desta população. (AU)


Objective: This paper investigates the prevalence of hypertriglyceridemic waist in bank workers and its association with socioeconomic, labor, behavioral, anthropometric and health condition factors. Method: This is a cross-sectional study based on information from 525 bank workers. To investigate the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype, it was necessary to consider the association between waist circumference and high levels of serum triglycerides. Results: The investigation resulted in a phenotype prevalence of 19.4%, being higher in men, elderly, married and working in the bank for more than five years. The phenotype was also associated with overweight, low HDL-c (high-density lipoprotein), mixed hyperlipidemia, high triglyceride/HDL-c ratio and arterial hypertension. Being over 50 years of age and being overweight increased the chances of the bankers presenting the phenotype. Being female and having adequate levels of HDL-c were shown to be protective factors against the phenotype. Conclusion: The prevalence of hypertriglyceridemic waist is high and is associated mainly with the excess weight and unfavorable lipid profile of this population. (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objetivos: Avaliar a concordância entre fenótipo de cintura hipertrigliceridêmica e fenótipo cintura estatura hipertrigliceridêmica, e a associação desses fenótipos com alterações antropométricas, bioquímicas e clínicas em homens adultos com risco metabólico aumentado pela exposição ao turno alternante. Métodos: Estudo transversal realizado com 678 trabalhadores do sexo masculino. O fenótipo de cintura hipertrigliceridêmica foi definido pelo perímetro da cintura ≥ 94 cm e triglicérides ≥ 150 mg/dL; o fenótipo cintura estatura hipertrigliceridêmica pela razão cintura estatura ≥ 0,5; e triglicérides ≥ 150mg/dL. Foram avaliados o índice de massa corporal, pressão arterial, colesterol total, high-density lipoprotein colesterol, low-density lipoprotein colesterol, triglicérides e glicemia de jejum. O teste Kappa foi utilizado para avaliar a concordância entre os fenótipos e o teste Qui-quadrado de Pearson, para verificar a associação entre os fenótipos e os componentes de risco para doenças cardiovasculares. Para todos os testes, o nível de significância adotado foi de 5%. Resultados: A concordância entre o fenótipo de cintura hipertrigliceridêmica e o fenótipo cintura estatura hipertrigliceridêmica foi significativa e substancial. Ambos fenótipos foram relacionados significativamente com índice de massa corporal, colesterol total, high-density lipoprotein colesterol e pressão arterial aumentados. Conclusões: Sugere-se o uso do fenótipo cintura estatura hipertrigliceridemica, já que demonstrou associações que se mantiveram independentemente da faixa etária e identificou maior proporção de trabalhadores em turnos alternantes com componentes de risco cardiovascular. (AU)


Objective: This study evaluated the agreement between hypertriglyceridemic waist and hypertriglyceridemic waist height phenotypes and the association of these phenotypes with anthropometric, biochemical, and clinical alterations in adult men with increased metabolic risk due to rotating shift exposure. Methods: The cross-sectional study included 678 male workers. The hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype was defined as waist circumference ≥ 94 cm and triglyceride concentration ≥150 mg/dL; the hypertriglyceridemic waist height phenotype was defined as a height-waist ratio ≥0.5 and triglyceride concentration ≥ 150mg/dL. Body mass index, blood pressure, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglyceride, and glucose levels were evaluated. The Kappa test was used to assess the concordance between phenotypes, and the Pearson's chi-square tests were used to verify the association between phenotypes and risk components for cardiovascular diseases. For all tests, the significance level was 5%. Results: The agreement between the hypertriglyceridemic waist and the hypertriglyceridemic waist height phenotypes was significant and substantial. Both phenotypes were significantly related to increased body mass index, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and blood pressure. Conclusion: We propose the use of hypertriglyceridemic waist-toheight ratio as it demonstrated associations that persisted regardless of the age group and also identified a higher proportion of rotating shift workers with cardiovascular risk components.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: To assess the frequency of the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype and its associated factors in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Methods: This is an observational analytical study with individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus, aged 5 to 18 years, of both genders, followed in a university hospital in the Brazilian Northeast. Weight, height, and waist circumference were measured, and the lipid profile and glycated hemoglobin were analyzed. The hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype was defined by the simultaneous presence of increased waist circumference (≥90th percentile for age and gender) and elevated serum triglyceride levels (≥75 mg/dL for children and ≥90 mg/dL for adolescents). We also investigated the family history of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, as well as sociodemographic and behavioral variables. In the statistical inference tests, the proportions were compared by Pearson's chi-square test ­and/­or Fisher's exact test, being significant p<0.05. Results: A total of 102 patients were evaluated, most of them females (54.9%) and adolescents (66.7%). The frequency of hypertriglyceridemic waist was 23.5%, which was associated with females (p=0.043), overweight (p=0.023), hypercholesterolemia (p=0.002), high LDL (p=0.001), and borderline VLDL (<0.001). Conclusions: The frequency of the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype was associated with females, atherogenic lipid profile, and overweight, indicating the importance of the nutritional monitoring of this population, aiming at reducing future cardiovascular diseases.


RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar a frequência do fenótipo cintura hipertrigliceridêmica e analisar seus fatores associados em crianças e adolescentes portadores de diabetes melito tipo 1. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo observacional analítico com indivíduos com diabetes melito tipo 1, de cinco a 18 anos de idade, de ambos os sexos, acompanhados em um hospital universitário do Nordeste brasileiro. Foram realizadas medidas de peso, altura e circunferência da cintura, além da análise do perfil lipídico e da hemoglobina glicada. O fenótipo cintura hipertrigliceridêmica foi definido pela presença simultânea da circunferência da cintura aumentada (≥percentil 90 por idade e sexo) e dos níveis séricos de triglicerídeos elevados (≥75 mg/dL para crianças e ≥90 mg/dL para adolescentes). Investigaram-se, ainda, os antecedentes familiares para doenças cardiovasculares e diabetes, e também variáveis sociodemográficas e comportamentais. Nos testes de inferência estatística, as proporções foram comparadas pelo teste do qui-quadrado de Pearson e/ou exato de Fisher, sendo significante p<0,05. Resultados: Foram avaliados 102 pacientes, com predomínio do sexo feminino (54,9%) e de adolescentes (66,7%). A frequência de cintura hipertrigliceridêmica foi de 23,5%; a qual apresentou associação com o sexo feminino (p=0,043), excesso de peso (p=0,023), hipercolesterolemia (p=0,002), LDL elevado (p=0,001) e VLDL em valores limítrofes (<0,001). Conclusões: A frequência do fenótipo cintura hipertrigliceridêmica foi associada ao sexo feminino, ao perfil lipídico aterogênico e ao excesso ponderal, evidenciando a importância do acompanhamento nutricional dessa população, visando à redução de agravos cardiovasculares futuros.

ABSTRACT

Abstract To identify the prevalence and factors associated with hypertriglyceridemic waist (HW) in community-dwelling elderly people in northeast Brazil. Population-based cross-sectional study. Some 316 elderly (≥ 60 years) people of both sexes participated in this study. Data were collected using a questionnaire, based on that used in the Health, Welfare and Aging Study (SABE), in addition to blood tests, blood pressure measurements and anthropometric measurements. The hypertriglyceridemic waist condition was diagnosed using high values of triglycerides (≥ 150 mg/dl) and waist circumference increased ≥ 88 and ≥ 102 cm for women and men, respectively. Logistic regression analysis was used to compare the hypertriglyceridemic waist and associated factors, significance level of 5%. The prevalence of hypertriglyceridemic waist (HW) was 27.1%. The logistic regression model (OR) adjusted showed the condition of HW associated to the feminine sex (OR 4.19), to the insufficiently active elderly (OR 2.41) and with overweight (OR 4.06). A high prevalence (27.1%) of hypertriglyceridemic waist was observed, indicating the female sex, physical inactivity and overweight as key factors associated with hypertriglyceridemic waist in community-dwelling elderly people.


Resumo Identificar a prevalência e os fatores associados à cintura hipertrigliceridêmica em idosos residentes em uma comunidade no nordeste do Brasil. Estudo populacional com delineamento transversal. Participaram do estudo 316 idosos com idade ≥ 60 anos, de ambos os sexos. Os dados foram coletados por meio de um formulário próprio, baseado no questionário usado na Pesquisa Saúde, Bem-Estar e Envelhecimento, além dos exames sanguíneos, aferição da pressão arterial e medidas antropométricas. A cintura hipertrigliceridêmica (CH) foi diagnosticada quando os níveis de triglicerídeos apresentaram valores (≥ 150 mg/dl) e a circunferência da cintura ≥ 88cm para as mulheres e 102 para os homens. Para identificar os fatores associados a CH foi utilizado a análise de regressão logística, com nível de significância 5%. A prevalência de cintura hipertrigliceridêmica foi 27,1%. O modelo de regressão logística (OR) ajustado mostrou a condição de CH associada ao sexo feminino (OR 4.19), aos idosos insuficientemente ativos (OR 2.41) e com sobrepeso (OR 4.06). Foi observada uma alta prevalência de cintura hipertrigliceridêmica em idosos residentes em comunidade, apontando o sexo feminino, a inatividade física e o sobrepeso/obesidade como fatores associados.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste estudo foi estimar a prevalência do fenótipo cintura hipertrigliceridêmica (FCH) em participantes do Estudo Longitudinal da Saúde do Adulto (ELSA-Brasil), identificar fatores de risco associados e comparar com outros indicadores de risco cardiovascular e metabólico. Trata-se de um estudo transversal com dados da linha de base de uma coorte de servidores públicos. O FCH é definido pela presença simultânea de circunferência da cintura (CC) aumentada (≥ 80cm para mulheres, ≥ 90cm para homens de acordo com a Federação Internacional de Diabetes - IDF; e ≥ 88cm para mulheres, ≥ 102cm para homens de acordo com o Programa Nacional de Educação sobre o Colesterol dos Estados Unidos - NCEP) e hipertrigliceridemia. A associação entre as variáveis independentes e FCH foi testada por meio de modelos de regressão logística multivariada. O FCH foi comparado também com outros indicadores de risco cardiovascular e metabólico por meio de testes de correlação, índice kappa, sensibilidade e especificidade. Após exclusões, foram analisados 12.811 participantes. A prevalência do FCH variou de 24,7% (IDF) a 13,3% (NCEP). FCH foi associado a ter idade mais avançada, ao consumo excessivo de álcool, ser ex-fumante, apresentar HDL baixo, não-HDL alto e PCR aumentado, independente do sexo ou critério de definição. FCH associou-se a indicadores de risco cardiovascular, especialmente à síndrome metabólica. A elevada prevalência de FCH e sua associação com indicadores de risco cardiovascular, especialmente com a síndrome metabólica, apoia sua utilização como ferramenta de triagem de risco cardiometabólico na prática clínica.


This study's objectives were to estimate the prevalence of hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTW) phenotype in participants in the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil), identify associated risk factors, and compare with other cardiovascular and metabolic risk indicators. This was a cross-sectional study with baseline data from a cohort of public employees. HTW is defined as the simultaneous presence of increased waist circumference (WC) (≥ 80cm for women, ≥ 90cm for men according to the International Diabetes Federation - IDF; and ≥ 88cm for women, ≥ 102cm for men according to the U.S. National Cholesterol Education Program - NCEP) and hypertriglyceridemia. Associations between independent variables and HTW were tested with multivariate logistic regression models. HTW was also compared to other cardiovascular and metabolic risk indicators by means of correlation tests, kappa index, sensitivity, and specificity. After exclusions, 12,811 participants were analyzed. Prevalence of HTW ranged from 24.7% (IDF) to 13.3% (NCEP). HTW was associated with age, excessive alcohol consumption, former smoking, low HDL, non-high HDL, and increased C-reactive protein, independently of gender or the criterion used to define HTW. HTW was associated with cardiovascular risk indicators, especially metabolic syndrome. The high prevalence of HTW and its association with cardiovascular risk indicators, especially metabolic syndrome, supports its use as a cardiometabolic risk screening tool in clinical practice.


El objetivo de este estudio fue estimar la prevalencia del fenotipo cintura hipertrigliceridémica (FCH), en participantes del Estudio Longitudinal de la Salud del Adulto (ELSA-Brasil), identificar factores de riesgo asociados, y compararlo con otros indicadores de riesgo cardiovascular y metabólico. Se trata de un estudio transversal con datos de la línea de referencia de una cohorte de empleados públicos. El FCH se define por la presencia simultánea de circunferencia de la cintura (CC) aumentada (≥ 80cm para mujeres, ≥ 90cm para hombres de acuerdo con la Federación Internacional de Diabetes - IDF; y ≥ 88cm para mujeres, ≥ 102cm para hombres de acuerdo con el Programa National de Educación sobre el colesterol de los EE.UU. - NCEP) e hipertrigliceridemia. La asociación entre las variables independientes y FCH fue probada mediante modelos de regresión logística multivariada. El FCH se comparó también con otros indicadores de riesgo cardiovascular y metabólico, mediante pruebas de correlación, índice kappa, sensibilidad y especificidad. Tras las exclusiones, se analizaron a 12.811 participantes. La prevalencia del FCH varió de un 24,7% (IDF) a un 13,3% (NCEP). El FCH se asoció a tener una edad más avanzada, al consumo excesivo de alcohol, ser ex-fumador, presentar HDL bajo, no-HDL alto y PCR aumentado, independiente del sexo o criterio de definición. FCH se asoció a indicadores de riesgo cardiovascular, especialmente al síndrome metabólico. La elevada prevalencia de FHC y su asociación con indicadores de riesgo cardiovascular, especialmente con el síndrome metabólico, apoya su utilización como herramienta de clasificación de riesgo cardiometabólico en la práctica clínica.

ABSTRACT

RESUMO: Objetivo: Investigar a associação entre consumo de gorduras e fibras e o fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica (FCH). Métodos: Pesquisa de corte transversal conduzida a partir da linha de base do Estudo Longitudinal de Saúde do Adulto (ELSA-Brasil). Foi realizada avaliação antropométrica e calculado o Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC). Os participantes foram classificados segundo presença do FCH quando circunferência da cintura ≥ 102 e ≥ 88 cm, respectivamente, em homens e mulheres, e triglicerídeos ≥ 150 mg/dL. O consumo de gorduras e fibras foi avaliado a partir de um Questionário de Frequência Alimentar validado e as variáveis socioeconômicas, demográficas e características comportamentais foram coletadas por meio de questionário. Foram realizados testes do χ2, Mann-Whitney e regressão de Poisson com significância de 5%. Resultados: Homens apresentaram menor prevalência do FCH (RP = 0,959; IC95% 0,948 - 0,969). Maiores prevalências de FCH foram observadas em indivíduos com atividade física fraca (RP = 1,039; IC95% 1,021-1,057), histórico de tabagismo (RP = 1,044; IC95% 1,031-1,057), menor renda per capita (IRR = 1,035; IC95% 1,022-1,049) e obesidade (RP = 1,32; IC95% 1,305-1,341). Consumo de gorduras e fibras não foi associado ao FCH. Conclusão: Maior prevalência do FCH foi encontrada em obesos, porém não foi observada associação entre o consumo de gorduras e fibras e o fenótipo.


ABSTRACT: Objective: To investigate the association between fat and fiber intakes and the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype (HWP). Methods: Cross-sectional survey conducted from the baseline of Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Health Adult (ELSA-Brasil). Anthropometric measurements were conducted and the body mass index was calculated (BMI). Participants were classified according to the presence of HWP when waist circumference ≥ 102 and ≥ 88 cm, respectively, in men and women, and triglycerides ≥ 150 mg/dL. Fat and fiber intakes were assessed using a validated food frequency questionnaire, and socioeconomic, demographic and behavioral variables were collected through a questionnaire. The χ² test, Mann-Whitney and Poisson regression were performed with significance level of 5%. Results: There was no association between fiber and fat intakes with HWP. A lower prevalence of HWP among men was observed (IRR = 0.959; 95%CI 0.948 - 0.969). A higher prevalence of HWP was observed in participants with low physical activity (OR = 1.039, 95%CI 1.021 - 1.057), smoking history (OR = 1.044, 95%CI 1.031 - 1.057), lower per capita income (IRR = 1.035; 95%CI 1.022 - 1.049) and obesity (OR = 1.32, 95%CI 1.305 - 1.341). Fat and fiber intakes were not associated with HWP. Conclusion: A higher prevalence of HWP was found in obese, but no association was found between intake of fat and fiber and phenotype.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Background: The hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTW) phenotype is defined as the simultaneous presence of increased waist circumference (WC) and serum triglycerides (TG) levels and it has been associated with cardiometabolic risk in children and adolescents. Objective: The objective was to evaluate the influence of HTW phenotype in the fasting glycemia and blood pressure in children and adolescents over one-year follow-up period. Methods: It is a cohort study involving 492 children and adolescents from 7 to 15 years old, both genders, who were submitted to anthropometric, biochemical and clinical evaluation at the baseline, and also after 6 and 12 months of follow-up. Generalized Estimating Equation (GEE) models were calculated to evaluate the longitudinal influence of the HTW phenotype in the glycemia and blood pressure over one-year. Results: It was observed a prevalence of 10.6% (n = 52) of HTW phenotype in the students. The GEE models identified that students with HTW phenotype had an increase of 3.87 mg/dl in the fasting glycemia mean (CI: 1.68-6.05) and of 3.67mmHg in the systolic blood pressure (SBP) mean (CI: 1.55-6.08) over one-year follow-up, after adjusting for confounding variables. Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that HTW phenotype is a risk factor for longitudinal changes in glycemia and SBP in children and adolescents over one-year follow-up period.


Resumo Fundamento: O fenótipo de cintura hipertrigliceridêmica (CHT) é definido como a presença simultânea de circunferência de cintura (CC) e níveis séricos de triglicérides (TG) aumentados e tem sido associado com risco cardiometabólico em crianças e adolescentes. Objetivo: Avaliar a influência do fenótipo CHT na glicemia de jejum e na pressão arterial em crianças e adolescentes em um período de acompanhamento de um ano. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo de coorte envolvendo 492 crianças e adolescentes de 7 a 15 anos de ambos os sexos, que foram submetidos à avaliação antropométrica, bioquímica e clínica no início e também após 6 e 12 meses de seguimento. Os modelos de Equação de Estimulação Generalizada (GEE) foram calculados para avaliar a influência longitudinal do fenótipo CHT na glicemia e na pressão arterial ao longo de um ano. Resultados: Foi observada uma prevalência de 10,6% (n = 52) do fenótipo CHT nos estudantes. Os modelos GEE identificaram que os estudantes com fenótipo CHT apresentaram aumento de 3,87 mg/dl na média de glicemia em jejum (IC: 1,68-6,05) e de 3,67 mmHg na pressão arterial sistólica media (PAS) (IC: 1,55-6,08) depois de um ano de acompanhamento, após ajuste para variáveis de confusão. Conclusões: Os resultados deste estudo sugerem que o fenótipo CHT é um fator de risco para alterações longitudinais da glicemia e da PAS em crianças e adolescentes em um período de um ano de seguimento.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: la enfermedad por hígado graso no alcohólico y la cintura hipertrigliceridémica constituyen nuevos marcadores de enfermedad cardiovascular aterosclerótica. Objetivos: caracterizar la cintura hipertrigliceridémica y la enfermedad por hígado graso no alcohólico como factores de riesgo cardiometabólico en pacientes hipertensos. Métodos: se realizó un estudio longitudinal prospectivo en 131 pacientes ingresados en el Hospital Docente Clínico Quirúrgico Miguel Enríquez con diagnóstico de hipertensión arterial, desde julio-2015 hasta julio-2016. Se incluyeron las variables edad, sexo, tabaquismo, diabetes, índice de masa corporal, cintura hipertrigliceridémica, glucemia, colesterol total, años de evolución de la hipertensión, hipertensión mal controlada y enfermedad por hígado graso no alcohólico. Resultados: la tercera parte de los pacientes mostraron cintura hipertrigliceridémica e hígado graso no alcohólico. Los adultos hipertensos con cintura hipertrigliceridémica tienen una mayor probabilidad de obesidad, glucemia en ayunas elevada, así como mayor descontrol y tiempo de evolución de la hipertensión arterial. La cintura hipertrigliceridémica muestra una estrecha relación y un buen valor predictivo (sensibilidad del 86,1 por ciento y especificidad del 84,1 por ciento) para la identificación de hígado graso no alcohólico en adultos hipertensos. Conclusiones: la cintura hipertrigliceridémica posee un buen valor predictivo para la identificación de hígado graso no alcohólico en pacientes hipertensos y se relaciona con una mayor probabilidad de obesidad y disglucemias(AU)


Introduction: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and hypertriglyceridemic waist are new markers of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Objectives: To characterize the hypertriglyceridemic waist and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease as cardiometabolic risk factors in hypertensive patients. Methods: A prospective longitudinal study was conducted in 131 patients admitted to Miguel Enríquez Clinical-Surgical Teaching Hospital with a diagnosis of arterial hypertension, from July 2015 to July 2016. The variables included were age, sex, smoking, diabetes, body mass index, hypertriglyceridemic waist, blood glucose, total cholesterol, years of hypertension evolution, poorly-controlled hypertension, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Results: One third of the patients showed hypertriglyceridemic waist and nonalcoholic fatty liver. Hypertensive adults with hypertriglyceridemic waist have a higher probability of obesity, elevated fasting glycaemia, as well as greater lack of control and natural history of hypertension. The hypertriglyceridemic waist shows a close relationship and a good predictive value (sensitivity of 86.1percent and specificity of 84.1percent for the identification of nonalcoholic fatty liver in hypertensive adults. Conclusions: The hypertriglyceridemic waist has a good predictive value for the identification of nonalcoholic fatty liver in hypertensive patients and is related to a greater probability of obesity and dysglycemia(AU)

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: The association of serum triglycerides plus waist circumference seems to be a good marker of cardiovascular risk and has been named the “hypertriglyceridemic waist” phenotype. The aim of our study was to investigate the association between the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype and HDL-cholesterol among patients with heart failure. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional study in a tertiary-level hospital in southern Brazil. METHODS: We included patients with heart failure aged > 40 years. Anthropometric assessment (weight, height, waist and hip circumferences) was performed; body mass index (BMI) and waist-hip ratio were calculated and lipid measurements (serum total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol and triglycerides) were collected. In men and women, respectively, waist circumference ≥ 94 cm and ≥ 80 cm, and triglycerides ≥ 150 mg/dl were considered abnormal and were used to identify the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype. Analyses of covariance were used to evaluate possible associations between levels of HDL-cholesterol and the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype, according to sex. RESULTS: 112 participants were included, of whom 62.5% were men. The mean age was 61.8 ± 12.3 years and the mean ejection fraction was 40.1 ± 14.7%. Men and woman presented mean HDL-cholesterol of 40.5 ± 14.6 and 40.9 ± 12.7 mg/dl, respectively. The prevalence of the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype was 25%. There was a significant difference in mean HDL-cholesterol between men with and without the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype (32.8 ± 14.2 versus 42.1 ± 13.7 mg/dl respectively; P = 0.04), even after adjustment for age, body mass index, type 2 diabetes mellitus, use of statins and heart failure etiology. CONCLUSIONS: The hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype is significantly associated with lower HDL-cholesterol levels in men with heart failure.


RESUMO CONTEXTO E OBJETIVO: A associação de triglicerídeos séricos e circunferência da cintura parece ser um bom marcador de risco cardiovascular e é denominada fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar a associação entre o fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica e o HDL-colesterol em pacientes portadores de insuficiência cardíaca. TIPO DE ESTUDO E LOCAL: Estudo transversal em um hospital terciário no sul do Brasil. MÉTODOS: Foram incluídos indivíduos com insuficiência cardíaca com idade > 40 anos. Foram realizadas as medidas antropométricas (peso, estatura, circunferência da cintura e do quadril) e calculados índice de massa corporal e relação cintura quadril, e foi avaliado o perfil lipídico (colesterol total, LDL-colesterol, HDL-colesterol e triglicerídeos séricos). Em homens e mulheres, respectivamente, circunferência da cintura ≥ 94 cm e ≥ 80 cm e triglicerídeos ≥ 150 mg/dl foram considerados anormais e usados para identificação do fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica. Análises de covariância foram usadas para avaliar possíveis associações entre níveis de ­HDL-colesterol e o fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica de acordo com o sexo. RESULTADOS: Foram incluídos 112 participantes e 62,5% eram homens. A média de idade foi de 61,8 ± 12,3 anos e a fração de ejeção média foi 40,1 ± 14,7%. Homens e mulheres apresentaram médias de HDL-colesterol 40,5 ± 14,6 e 40,9 ± 12,7 mg/dl, respectivamente. A prevalência do fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica na amostra foi de 25%. Observou-se diferença significativa entre as médias de ­HDL-colesterol entre homens com e sem o fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica (32,8 ±14,2 versus 42,1 ± 13,7 mg/dl, P = 0,04), mesmo após ajuste para idade, índice de massa corporal, diabetes mellitus tipo 2, uso de estatinas e etiologia da insuficiência cardíaca. CONCLUSÕES: O fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica está associado significativamente com menores níveis de HDL-colesterol em homens com insuficiência cardíaca.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to assess the utility of the visceral adiposity index (VAI) and the hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTGW) phenotype as possible hypertension (HTN) predictors in a high-risk population without diabetes and HTN. METHODS: Incident HTN over a 7-year follow-up was assessed among 1,375 first-degree non-diabetic and non-hypertensive relatives of consecutive patients with type 2 diabetes who were 30 to 70 years of age. HTN was defined as a blood pressure reading ≥140/90 mm Hg or the use of antihypertensive medications. We examined the incidence of HTN across VAI quintiles and four groups defined according to baseline fasting serum triglyceride (TG) levels and waist circumference (WC). RESULTS: The VAI and the HTGW phenotype at baseline were related to an increased risk for HTN. In comparison with the lowest VAI quintile, the highest VAI quintile showed a significant associated with HTN in an age- and gender-adjusted model (odds ratio [OR], 1.65; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.07 to 2.55). Those with HTGW were 2.3 times (OR, 2.27; 95% CI, 1.54 to 3.35) more likely to develop HTN than those with a normal WC and normal TG levels. CONCLUSION: Greater VAI values weakly predicted HTN, whereas the HTGW phenotype was a stronger predictor of incident HTN in an Iranian high-risk population.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective This study aims to investigate the role of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and the hypertriglyceridemic-waist (HW) phenotype in determining cardiometabolic risk factors and elevated liver enzymes in a national sample of Iranian pediatric population. Method This nationwide study was conducted in the framework of the third survey of a surveillance program. Students, aged 10-18 years, were recruited from 27 provinces in Iran. The prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors was compared in students with and without HW and MetS. The association of HW with different cardiometabolic risk factors was determined. Results The mean age of studied population was 14.73 ± 2.41 years. Prevalence of HW and MetS was 3.3% and 4%, respectively. Sixty-nine (71.1%) participants with HW had MetS. The prevalence of obesity, elevated systolic blood pressure, hypercholesterolemia, and elevated alanine aminotransaminase (ALT) was significantly higher in subjects with HW phenotype and MetS than in their peers (p < 0.05). A significant association was observed between HW and elevated levels of cholesterol and ALT, as well as between obesity and low HDL-C (p < 0.05). Conclusions The current findings serve as complementary evidence to previous studies, which have been mainly conducted among adults, suggesting that the HW phenotype is associated with cardiometabolic risk factors, especially with elevated cholesterol and ALT. The authors propose that, in primary care settings and in large epidemiological studies, the measurement of all MetS components can be replaced by studying HW as a screening tool for identifying children at high risk for cardiometabolic disorders.


Resumo Objetivo Investigar o desempenho da síndrome metabólica (SM) e do fenótipo de cintura hipertrigliceridêmica (CH) na determinação de fatores de risco cardiometabólico e enzimas hepáticas elevadas em uma amostra nacional da população pediátrica iraniana. Método Estudo nacional feito na estrutura da terceira pesquisa de um programa de vigilância. Foram recrutados alunos de 10-18 anos de 27 províncias do Irã. A prevalência de fatores de risco cardiometabólico foi comparada em alunos com e sem CH e SM. Foi determinada a associação da CH com diferentes fatores de risco cardiometabólico. Resultados A média de idade da população estudada foi de 14,73 ± 2,41 anos. A prevalência de CH e SM foi de 3,3% e 4%, respectivamente; 69 (71,1%) dos participantes com CH apresentaram SM. A prevalência de obesidade, pressão arterial sistólica elevada, hipercolesterolemia e alanina aminotransferase (ALT) elevada foi significativamente maior em meninos e meninas com fenótipo CH e SM do que em seus outros pares (p < 0,05). A associação de CH foi significativa com elevados níveis de colesterol e ALT, bem como obesidade e HDL-C baixo (p < 0,05). Conclusões Os achados atuais servem de evidência complementar de estudos anteriores, conduzidos principalmente com adultos, e sugerem que o fenótipo CH está associado a fatores de risco cardiometabólico, principalmente com colesterol e ALT altos. Propomos que, em ambientes de cuidados básicos e em grandes estudos epidemiológicas, a medição de todos os componentes de SM possa ser substituída pelo estudo da CH como ferramenta de triagem para identificar crianças com alto risco de apresentarem distúrbios cardiometabólicos.

ABSTRACT

Fundamentos: O uso de diferentes critérios para a determinação da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica (CHT) pode resultar em interpretações imprecisas, podendo comprometer o diagnóstico de pacientes com risco de desenvolver doenças cardiovasculares. Objetivo: Avaliar a concordância no diagnóstico da CHT utilizando diferentes pontos de corte para classificação da circunferência da cintura, em pacientes hipertensos. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo transversal realizado com 120 pacientes, de 30 a 74 anos de idade, de ambos os sexos em atendimento ambulatorial. Realizou-se avaliação antropométrica (peso, altura e circunferência da cintura) e dos níveis séricos de triglicérides. A CHT foi definida pela presença simultânea da circunferência da cintura aumentada e hipertrigliceridemia. A concordância entre os diagnósticos de cintura hipertrigliceridêmica foi avaliada pelo índice Kappa. Resultados: A prevalência da CHT foi maior em adultos, para ambos os sexos pelos critérios do International Diabetes Federation (IDF) e Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS) (28%), já pelo National Cholesterol Education Program - Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III) foram identificados 22,7% de indivíduos. Identificou-se uma concordância quase perfeita (0,864) entre o diagnóstico da CHT pelos pontos de corte da IDF versus NCEP-ATP III, OMS versus NCEP-ATP III. Entre o IDF e OMS a concordância foi perfeita. Conclusão: A utilização dos pontos de corte da circunferência da cintura propostos pelo IDF e OMS, para caracterizar indivíduos com cintura hipertrigliceridêmica foi melhor do que a do NCEP-ATP III


Background: The adoption of different criteria to determine the occurrence of the hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTW) can result in inaccurate interpretations, compromising the diagnosis of patients at risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic agreement of HTW using different cut-off points for waist circumference in hypertensive patients. Methods: Cross-sectional study including 120 patients of both sexes, aged 30 to 74 years and receiving care on an outpatient basis. We assessed the participants' anthropometric data (weight, height, and waist circumference) and determined their serum triglycerides levels. The diagnosis of HTW was defined by concurrent increased waist circumference and hypertriglyceridemia. The agreement among the diagnoses of HTW was assessed with the kappa index. Results: In adults of both sexes, the HTW had a higher prevalence (28%) when determined by the criteria defined by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and the World Health Organization (WHO) than by those defined by the National Cholesterol Education Program - Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III, 22.7%). We identified an almost perfect agreement (0.864) between the diagnosis of HTW determined by the cut-off points of the IDF versus NCEP-ATP III and by the WHO versus NCEP-ATP III. The correlation was perfect between the diagnoses established by the IDF and WHO. Conclusion: The cut-off points for waist circumference proposed by the IDF and WHO was better than those by the NCEP-ATP III to characterize individuals with HTW

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTGW) phenotype is a simple and inexpensive screening parameter to identify people at increased risk of cardiovascular disease. We evaluated whether the HTGW phenotype predicts diabetes in urban Korean adults. METHODS: A total of 2,900 nondiabetic subjects (mean age 44.3 years), comprising 2,078 males (71.7%) and 822 females (28.3%) who underwent annual medical check-ups at our center between January 2005 and December 2009, were recruited. The subjects were divided into four groups according to baseline serum triglyceride (TG) level and waist circumference (WC): normal WC-normal TG (NWNT) level, normal WC-high TG level, enlarged WC-normal TG level, and enlarged WC-high TG (EWHT) level. High serum TG level was defined as > or =150 mg/dL and enlarged WC was defined as > or =90 cm for men and > or =85 cm for women. New cases of diabetes were determined according to questionnaires filled in by participants and the diagnostic criteria of the American Diabetes Association. Cox proportional hazards model analysis was used to assess the association of HTGW phenotype with the incidence of diabetes. RESULTS: A total of 101 (3.5%) new diabetes cases were diagnosed during the study period. The EWHT group had a higher incidence of diabetes (8.3%) compared with the NWNT group (2.2%). The adjusted hazard ratio for diabetes for subjects with the EWHT phenotype at baseline was 4.113 (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.397 to 7.059) after adjustment for age, and 2.429 (95% CI, 1.370 to 4.307) after adjustment for age, sex, total cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, and alcohol drinking history. It was attenuated by inclusion of baseline fasting glucose level in the model. CONCLUSION: Subjects with the HTGW phenotype showed the highest risk of incident diabetes. This tool could be useful for identifying individuals at high risk of diabetes.

ABSTRACT

The present study aimed to assess the prevalence of the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype and its associated factors among subjects that have been followed up from birth. In 1982, all maternity hospitals in the city of Pelotas, in the Southern Region of Brazil, were visited and all births were recorded. Babies whose parents lived in the urban area of Pelotas were subsequently followed up on several occasions. A 22 to 23-year follow-up of this birth cohort was carried out in 2004 and 2005. The presence of the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype was defined as waist circumference ≥ 90cm and triglyceride levels ≥ 177mg/dL for males, and waist circumference ≥ 85cm and triglyceride levels ≥ 133mg/dL for females. The prevalence of the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype was 5.9% and 4.5% among men and women, respectively. Among males, a sedentary lifestyle during leisure time, smoking and obesity were associated with the presence of the hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype, whereas among females the condition was positively associated with skin color, family income, obesity and dietary fat intake.


O presente estudo teve como objetivo determinar a prevalência do fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica e seus fatores associados entre indivíduos que foram seguidos desde o nascimento. Em 1982, as maternidades de Pelotas, sul do Brasil, foram visitadas e todos os nascimentos foram identificados. Em 2004-2005, buscou-se acompanhar toda a coorte. A presença de fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica foi definida como circunferência da cintura ≥ 90cm e triglicerídeos ≥ 177mg/dL para o sexo masculino, e circunferência da cintura ≥ 85cm e triglicerídeos ≥ 133mg/dL para as mulheres. A prevalência de fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica foi de 5,9% e 4,5% entre os homens e mulheres, respectivamente. Para os homens, o sedentarismo no lazer, tabagismo e obesidade estiveram associados com fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica. Por outro lado, entre as mulheres, fenótipo da cintura hipertrigliceridêmica foi positivamente associado com a cor da pele, renda familiar, obesidade e consumo de gordura.
