Relationship between one-hour postload plasma glucose and carotid intima-media thickness in abdominal obese men / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

ABSTRACT

Seventy-four men aged 20-50 years with normal glucose tolerance were divided into abdominal obese group(n=36),simple obese group(n=16),and normal body weight group(n=22).One-hour postload plasma glucose(1hPG)and carotid intima-media thickness(IMT)were higher in abdominal obese group than those in simple obese group and control group(all P<0.01).IMT was positively correlated with 1hPG(P<0.05).In multiple regression analysis,waist circumference and triglycerides were independent predictors for IMT.
