Chinese people; adolescents; at-risk population; body mass index; children; gender; glucose; glucose tolerance tests; insulin; low density lipoprotein cholesterol; metabolic syndrome; neck; noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus; nutrition risk assessment; obesity; odds ratio; triacylglycerols; vitamin D; vitamin D deficiency; young adults; youth; China
Abstract:
... The relationship between vitamin D deficiency and metabolic syndrome (MS) remains controversial with relatively sparse data among youth. Therefore, we attempted to explicate the association of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels with MS in Chinese adolescents and young adults.A cohort of 559 subjects at elevated risk of MS were recruited at 14–28 years of age as a follow-up to the Beijing Child a ...

Abstract:
... Cesarean delivery may increase the risk of childhood obesity, a precursor of metabolic syndrome (MetS). We aimed to investigate the association of elective cesarean delivery (ElCD) with MetS and its components in a Chinese birth cohort.This cohort included 1467 children (737 delivered by ElCD and 730 by spontaneous vaginal delivery [SVD]) who were followed up at the age of 4–7 years in 2013. MetS ...

Abstract:
... Several studies have reported increased cardiovascular risks in normal weight obesity (NWO) populations. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of NWO and its relationships with cardiometabolic risks in Chinese patients.The data were from the 2007–2008 China National Diabetes and Metabolic Disorders Study. The BF was measured using the biological impedance method. NWO was defined as a normal BMI ( ...

Abstract:
... Recent genome-wide association studies have identified several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with body mass index (BMI)/obesity. In this study, we aim to examine the associations of obesity related loci with risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in a children population from China. A total of 431 children with MetS and 3046 controls were identified based on the modified ATPIII defi ...

Abstract:
... OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and metabolic syndrome in the Chinese population. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Plasma 25(OH)D was measured in a cross-sectional sample of 1,443 men and 1,819 women aged 50-70 years from Beijing and Shanghai. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the updated National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Pane ...
