ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) and metabolic syndrome ( MS) . Methods Four hundred and sixty-five subjects were enrolled and divided into two groups MS group( n = 255) and non-MS group as control(n = 210). Fasting levels of blood glucose (FBG), insulin (Ins) , C peptide (Cp) , cholesterol (Cho) , triglyceride (TG), lower-density lipoprotein cholesterin ( LDL-C) , higher-density lipoprotein cholesterin ( HDL -C), lipoprotein a (Lpa), serum IGF1, postprandial 2 hours blood glucose (PBG), and BMI were measured in these persons. Results The levels of IGF1, Cp, FBG, PBG, CT, TG, LDL-C, BMI were higher, and HDL-C was lower in MS group than those in non-MS group (all P
