چکیده
abstract background and objective: the association of triglyceride/high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (tg/hdl-c) ratio with fasting serum insulin, which is an alternative method of insulin resistance (ir) measurement, is well-recognized. thus, the measurement of tg/hdl-c ratio is useful to determine both ir and dyslipidemia, which itself is a characteristic of individuals with ir. therefore, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between tg/hdl ratio as an indicator of ir, with different fasting blood glucose levels. methods: this case-control study was performed on 343 volunteers with no history of diabetes or use of blood glucose-lowering medications and fasting blood sugar (fbs) levels of less than 126 mg/dl. after sampling, the subjects were divided into three groups based on their fbs level. first group included healthy subjects with fbs of less than 100 mg/dl. second group consisted of subjects with impaired fasting glucose (ifg) and fbs of 110-100 mg/dl and a third group including those with impaired glucose tolerance (igt) and fbs of 110-125 mg/dl. results: the amount of tg/hdl-c ratio was 3.8 ± 2.8, 4.0 ± 2.1 and 5.4 ± 3.8 for the healthy group, individuals with ifg and igt, respectively. the tg/hdl index was significantly different among the tested groups with no significant difference between healthy subjects and subjects with ifg. moreover, there was a statistically significant difference between the igt and ifg groups with healthy individuals. conclusion: considering the significant increase of the tg/hdl ratio in groups with impaired glucose, using this index can be helpful in evaluation of glycemic disorder.

متن کاملEvaluation of Postprandial To Fasting Insulin Ratio as a Biochemical Marker of Insulin Resistance in Obese Indian Children
Obesity in children is reaching epidemic proportions and is rapidly emerging as the most important chronic disease in childhood [1]. It is common knowledge that obesity is associated with an increased risk for metabolic complications, such as insulin resistance, glucose intolerance and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Insulin resistance in adults has been shown to be a cardinal feature in the d...

متن کاملInsulin resistance & secretion in subjects with normal fasting plasma glucose.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Lowering the diagnostic threshold of normal fasting plasma glucose (FPG) from 6.1 to 5.56 mmol/l has been proposed by American Diabetes Association. As early detection of subjects with risk of diabetes is important, it is crucial to understand the relationship between different levels of FPG, insulin resistance (IR) and insulin secretion. We measured IR and insulin secre...
