RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To determine whether smoking increases the risk for developing metabolic syndrome (MetS) in Chinese men.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 693 men with no MetS at baseline were followed for 2.9-5.5 years. Subjects were divided into nonsmokers, ex-smokers, and current smokers according to baseline smoking status.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>After adjusting for age, education level, alcohol intake, fasting plasma insulin, HOMA-IR index, and BMI at baseline and weight change, current smokers were dose-dependently associated with increased risk for developing new MetS compared with nonsmokers. The odds ratio (OR) was 2.131 (95% CI, 1.264, 3.592; P<0.01) for the NCEPIII definition or 3.083 (95% CI, 1.807, 5.295; P<0.01) for the JCDCG definition of MetS. Ex-smokers who had quit for ≥13 years significantly decreased the risk for developing new MetS defined by the JCDCG definition. Compared with nonsmokers, current smokers were significantly associated with increased incidence of hypertriglyceridemia and low HDL-C.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Smoking is a risk factor for developing MetS in Chinese men after adjusting for age, education level, alcohol intake, fasting plasma insulin, HOMA-IR, BMI, and weight change. This could be due to an increased incidence of dyslipidemia. Smoking cessation for >13 years decreased the risk for developing MetS defined by the JCDCG definition.</p>

This study was to assess the chronic morbidity and metabolic disordelters in 262 patients with type 2 diabetes.Of all participants,64(24.4%)coexisted with peripheral neuropathy,34(13.0%)combined with peripheral vascular disease.41(15.6%)were diagnosed as diabetic retinopathy,and 46 (17.6%)had concurrent diabetic nephropathy.In comparison with diabetic patients without these complications,those with the chronic conditions generally had higher plasma glucose,blood pressure or body mass index.
