Association between pulse wave velocity and impaired fasting glucose / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo examine the relation between pulse wave velocity (PWV) and impaired fasting glucose (IFG),then evaluate the modification effects of age,BMI,hypertension and lipids in Chinese adults.Methods5099 cases from a community-based health examination survey in Xuzhou,Jiangsu prownce,China,were enrolled in this study.Blood pressure,weight,height,waist circumference,neck circumference,body fat ratio and determination of fasting glucose,lipidsand pulse wave velocity were measured in all cases.IFG was defined as 6.1 mmol/L≤FBG ＜7.0 mmol/L.ResultsThe odds ratios (OR,95％ CI ) of IFG across increasing variable of cf-PWV were 1.00,1.07(0.83 - 1.39),1.20( 1.08 -1.34),1.13(1.04 - 1.23),1.14(1.05 - 1.25) ( Pfor trend ＜0.01).Age and neck circumference levels significantly interacted with cf-PWV in relation to IFG risk ( P ＜0.01 ).ConclusionsThe present data indicate serum cf-PWV concentration was associated with the risk of IFG,and the association was modified by age and neck circumference levels.
