Metabolic and adipose risk factors for NIDDM and coronary disease in third- generation Japanese-American men and women with impaired glucose tolerance
Diabetologia(1994)
摘要
Summary Since second-generation (Nisei) Japanese Americans are prone to develop the insulin resistance syndrome, younger third-generation
(Sansei) Japanese Americans from a cross-sectional 10% volunteer sample of Sansei men (n = 115) and women (n = 115) 34 years or older in King County, Washington with normal glucose tolerance or IGT were examined for metabolic and adipose
risk factors associated with this syndrome. After an overnight 10-h fast, blood samples were taken for measurement of glucose,
insulin, C-pep-tide, lipids, and lipoproteins, followed by a 3-h 75-g oral glucose tolerance test with blood samples taken
for glucose, insulin, and C-peptide measurement. BMI (kg/m2), skinfolds, and body fat areas (by computed tomography) were measured. IGT was diagnosed in 19 % of the men and 31 % of
the women. Men with IGT had more adiposity, both overall and in thoracic and visceral sites, had higher fasting plasma insulin
and C-peptide, and tended to have higher fasting triglyceride and lower HDL cholesterol than men with normal glucose tolerance.
Women with IGT had more thoracic subcutaneous fat and intra-abdominal fat and lower fasting HDL cholesterol than women with
normal glucose tolerance, and tended to have higher fasting triglyceride and LDL cholesterol. Women with IGT also had higher
fasting plasma insulin than women with normal glucose tolerance but tended to be less hyperinsuli-naemic than men. Differences
in fasting insulin, C-peptide, and lipids were best predicted by intra-abdominal fat. Thus metabolic (higher fasting insulin
and a tendency to higher triglyceride and lower HDL cholesterol) and adipose (visceral adiposity) risk factors associated
with the insulin resistance syndrome are identifiable among Sansei men and women with IGT, who may therefore be at increased
risk of future development of NIDDM and CHD.
