Different level of fasting blood glucose and cardiovascular risk factors clustering among population of Jiangsu Province / 中华疾病控制杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the clustering of major cardiovascular risk factors among population with different level of fasting blood glucose (FBG) in Jiangsu provincial communities. Methods A population-based screening project was conducted during 2015-2017, with 83 522 residents aged 35-75 years from 6 areas included in the study. Prevalence and the clustering of four cardiovascular risk factors (hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia and smoking) were analyzed. Binary Logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the relationship between FBG and cardiovascular risk factor clustering. Results The prevalence of diabetes was 18.9% among adults aged 35-75 years in Jiangsu province, and 41.4% of them were aware of their disease. Among undiagnosed population, the odd ratios (OR) of cardiovascular risk factors clustering in impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and hyperglycemia group was 1.29 (OR=1.29，95% CI1.24-1.36，P<0.001) and 1.99 (OR=1.99，95% CI1.89-2.08，P<0.001), compared with normal FBG group. The control rate of FBG was 15.5% among diagnosed cases. There was no difference in the risk clustering between diabetes patient with and without control of FBG. Conclusions Hyperglycemia and IFG increase the risk of cardiovascular risk factor clustering. Comprehensive interventions should be served as an important role to keep blood glucose at a normal level in high-risk population.
