Body Mass Index (BMI) Is Associated with Microalbuminuria in Chinese Hypertensive Patients
There is no general consensus on possible factors associated with microalbuminuria in hypertensive patients nor any reported study about this issue in Chinese patients. To examine this issues, 944 hypertensive patients were enrolled in a study based on a cross-sectional survey conducted in Southern China. Multivariate regression analyses were performed to identify the factors related with the p...
متن کاملPaternal Body Mass Index (BMI) Is Associated with Offspring Intrauterine Growth in a Gender Dependent Manner
BACKGROUND Environmental alternations leading to fetal programming of cardiovascular diseases in later life have been attributed to maternal factors. However, animal studies showed that paternal obesity may program cardio-metabolic diseases in the offspring. In the current study we tested the hypothesis that paternal BMI may be associated with fetal growth. METHODS AND RESULTS We analyzed the...

متن کاملGenetic Variation in the NOC Gene Is Associated with Body Mass Index in Chinese Subjects
UNLABELLED Circadian clock genes are critical regulators of energy homeostasis and metabolism. However, whether variation in the circadian genes is associated with metabolic phenotypes in humans remains to be explored. In this study, we systemically genotyped 20 tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 8 candidate genes involved in circadian clock, including CLOCK, BMAL1(ARNTL), PER1, PER2...
متن کاملbody mass index or microalbuminuria, which one is more important for the prediction and prevention of diastolic dysfunction in non diabetic hypertensive patients?
background: numerous studies have now demonstrated that heart failure with a normal ejection fraction (hfnlef) is common. hypertension is also the most commonly associated cardiac condition in patients with hfnlef. despite the observed link between microalbuminuria, obesity, and cardiovascular disorders, this question has remained ― ‘which is more important for the prediction and prevention of ...
