Atherogenic lipid parameters in people with normal glucose tolerance: implications from elevated 1-hour post-load plasma glucose

Cardiovasc DiabetolPublished Cross-sectional study

Authors' conclusion

NGT-1hPG-high exhibited a similar atherogenic lipid profile to that observed in PDM. 1-h PG could serve as a potential indicator for the early identification of at-risk individuals who may otherwise go undetected among NGT population.

Study context

Population
Individuals aged 25–55 years at high risk of diabetes, Daqing Diabetes Prevention Study II (Daqing DPS-II)
Participants
2,469 individuals
Exposure
Glycemic status stratified by 1-h PG
Outcome
Distribution of glycemic status

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Odds ratio

1.13

95% CI 0.88–1.44

By group

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Further findings

Lipid profile by 1-h PG level

Higher 1-h PG associated with increased TC, TG, LDL-C, ApoB, sdLDL-C, non-HDL-C, remnant cholesterol (RC) and ApoB/ApoA-1, and decreased ApoA-1, HDL-C and LDL-C/ApoB
all P < 0.05

Spearman correlation of lipid parameters with 10-year cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk (China-PAR)

TG
0.41
sdLDL-C
0.38
RC
0.35
ApoB/ApoA-1
0.31
LDL-C/ApoB
- 0.37
HDL-C
- 0.36

Lipids, NGT-1hPG-high vs NGT-1hPG-normal

TG, sdLDL-C and ApoB/ApoA-1 significantly higher; HDL-C and LDL-C/ApoB significantly lower with NGT-1hPG-high
all P < 0.05

Lipids, NGT-1hPG-high vs PDM

TG and RC differed
both P < 0.01
Most other lipid parameters did not significantly differ
all P > 0.05
