Comparison between distinct insulin resistance indices in measuring the development of hypertension: The China Health and Nutrition Survey.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

Our aim was to identify the relationship between several surrogate insulin resistance (IR) indices based on lipid products and the development of hypertension.

Materials and methods

A total of 3,281 participants aged ≥ 18 years enrolled in the China Health and Nutrition Survey from 2009 to 2015 and who were followed up for 6 years were included in the final analysis. Logistic regression was used to analyze the association between different IR indices and incident hypertension.

Results

There were 882 (28.9%) hypertensive participants in 2015. With regard to the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) based on insulin level, subjects in the highest quartile of HOMA-IR values were more likely to develop hypertension [RR = 1.58 (1.26-1.98), P</
