Type 2 & other diabetes

Plasma level of ATPase inhibitory factor 1 (IF1) is associated with type 2 diabetes risk in humans: A prospective cohort study

Diabetes MetabPublished Prospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

We identified for the first time the mitochondrial-related biomarker IF1 as being associated with the risk of T2DM.

Study context

Population
Individuals with prediabetes, IT-DIAB prospective study
Participants
307 individuals
Exposure
Plasma IF1 level and risk of new-onset diabetes
Outcome
Incidence of NOD
Follow-up
Within five years
Methodological detailscross-sectional analysis in two independent interventional studies
  • Cross-sectional analysis in two independent interventional studies

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Risk of T2DM per 1 SD plasma IF1, adjusted for age, sex and FPG

HR per 1 SD IF1 (95% CI 0.62; 0.94), P = 0.012

0.76

Observational data: associations, not effects.
