Associations between lower extremity muscle mass and metabolic parameters related to obesity in Japanese obese patients with type 2 diabetes
Background. Age-related loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia) increases the incidence of obesity in the elderly by reducing physical activity. This sarcopenic obesity may become self-perpetuating, increasing the risks for metabolic syndrome, disability, and mortality. We investigated the associations of two sarcopenic indices, the ratio of lower extremity muscle mass to body weight (L/W ratio) and t...
متن کاملGenetic influences on type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome related quantitative traits in Mauritius.
Epidemiological studies report a high prevalence of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome in the island nation of Mauritius. The Mauritius Family Study was initiated to examine heritable factors that contribute to these high rates of prevalence and consists of 400 individuals in 24 large extended multigenerational pedigrees. Anthropometric and biochemical measurements relating to the metabolic...
متن کاملAssociations between genetic variants and the severity of metabolic syndrome in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) includes obesity, dyslipidemia, elevated blood pressure, and dysglycemia. Subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) exhibit features of MetS. The etiology of MetS is complex, involving both environmental and genetic factors. In this study, we examined the role of specific candidate genetic variants on the severity of MetS in T2D subjects. A total of 240 T2D subjects aged 35-...
متن کاملNovel biological insights emerging from genetic studies of type 2 diabetes and related metabolic traits.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In the past 3 years, genome-wide association studies have identified many tens of common genetic variants associated with metabolic diseases and traits. Although much further research is needed to identify the target genes, the associations between gene variants and diseases are already providing biological insights. The purpose of this review is to update the reader with the ...
متن کاملComparison of Components of Metabolic Syndrome among Metabolically Obese Normal Weight, Metabolically Benign Normal Weight, and Metabolically Abnormal Obese Iranian Children and Adolescents in Ahvaz
Background: Metabolically obese normal-weight (MONW) children and adolescents are characterized by body mass index (BMI) lower than +1SD with metabolic disorders such as hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and/or hypertension. This study wants to determineprevalence of MONW, metabolically benign normal weight (MBNW), metabolically abnormality obese (MAO) and comparethe components of metabolic ...
