Triglyceride glucose index was linearly associated with abdominal aortic calcification based on NHANES 2013-2014.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To study the relationship between the TyG index and the risk of AAC.

Methods

We enrolled 1,486 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). The TyG index was calculated in the log-transformed of triglycerides multipled by glucose, and the presence of AAC was diagnosed as AAC score above than 0.

Results

Our suggested found that TyG level was positively correlated with the presence of AAC and log-transformed AAC score. After adjusted for other variables, comparing with the lowest quartile of TyG index, the highest quartile of TyG level was significantly associated with the presence of AAC (OR 2.12, 95%CI 1.05-4.35, p = 0.038) and severe AAC (OR 2.12, 95%CI 1.05-4.35, p = 0.038).

Conclusions

TyG index was significantly associated with the risk of AAC and severe AAC, which could be a marker in clinical practice.

Long sleep duration is associated with abdominal aortic calcification among male adults with chronic kidney disease: NHANES 2013-2014.

Project description:There are no studies exploring the correlation between sleep duration and abdominal aortic calcification (AAC). This study aims to investigate this relationship and its significance. Additionally, given the higher prevalence of sleep disorders and AAC in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), we conducted further studies in this population. We analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2013-2014. Sleep duration was assessed by a sleep questionnaire and categorized into 2-5, 6-8, and ≥ 9 h. The AAC-24 score is determined using the Kauppila scoring system and used for AAC assessment. Multivariable linear and logistic regression analysis were used to explore the relationship between sleep duration and AAC. Among the 2,996 participants, 14.29% reported nightly short sleep (2-5 h), 77.64% reported intermediate sleep (6-8 h), and 8.08% reported long sleep (≥ 9 h). After adjusting for potential confounding factors, among male participants with CKD, long sleep (≥ 9 h) significantly increased AAC-24 scores compared with intermediate sleep (6-8 h) (β: 2.12; 95% CI: 0.75, 3.50), and the risk of severe AAC (SAAC) was increased by 1.55 times (OR: 2.55; 95% CI: 1.02, 6.36). And among female CKD and non-CKD participants, sleep duration was not associated with AAC. Long sleep duration increases the risk of AAC among male adults with CKD. Prospective studies are needed to confirm this finding.

The estimated glomerular filtration rate was U-shaped associated with abdominal aortic calcification in US adults: findings from NHANES 2013-2014.

Project description:ObjectivesThe high incidence of abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) is well-documented in individuals with severe renal function decline. However, there is limited research on the historical relationship between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and the risk of AAC occurrence in the general population undergoing routine medical examinations. The main objective of this study was to investigate the historical relationship between eGFR and AAC in the general population of the United States.MethodsWe performed a cross-sectional study using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013-2014 database. Weighted multivariate linear regression models were used to estimate the associations of eGFR with AAC score. Smooth curve fitting and two-piecewise linear regression were employed to explore the potential non-linear relationship.ResultsA total of 2,978 participant (48.22% were male) aged 40-80 years were included in this study. The fully-adjusted model demonstrated a negative correlation between eGFR and AAC score (β = -0.015, 95% CI: -0.023 to -0.006). However, when applying the smooth curve fitting method, a U-shaped relationship was identified, and the inflection point was calculated at 76.43 ml/min/1.73 m2 using the two-piecewise linear regression model.ConclusionsThere was a U-shaped association between eGFR and AAC score in general US adults, with an inflection point at about 76.43 ml/min/1.73 m2.

Association of dietary live microbe intake with abdominal aortic calcification in US adults: a cross-sectional study of NHANES 2013-2014.

Project description:ObjectTo explore the potential association between dietary live microbe intake and abdominal aortic calcification (AAC).MethodsWe conducted a cross-section study based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). We categorized the participants into three groups (low, medium, and high dietary intake of live microbes) according to Sanders's dietary live microbe classification system and participants' 24-h dietary recall data. AAC was quantified by using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and diagnosed by using the Kauppila AAC-24 score system. The analyses utilized weighted logistic regression and weighted linear regression.ResultsA total of 2,586 participants were included. After the full adjustment for covariates, compared to participants with a low dietary live microbe intake, participants with a high dietary live microbe intake had a significantly lower risk of severe AAC (OR: 0.39, 95% CI: 0.22, 0.68, p = 0.003), and the AAC score was also significantly decreased (β:-0.53, 95% CI: -0.83, -0.23, p = 0.002).ConclusionIn this study, more dietary live microbial intake was associated with lower AAC scores and a lower risk of severe AAC. However, more research is needed to verify this.

Unravelling the link between periodontitis and abdominal aortic calcification in the US adult population: a cross-sectional study based on the NHANES 2013-2014.

Project description:ObjectiveWe aimed to explore the association between periodontitis and abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) among a nationally representative sample of US adults.DesignCross- sectional study.SettingThe National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2013-2014).ParticipantsA total of 2149 participants aged 40 years or older who have complete information for periodontitis and AAC assessment test were included in this study.Primary and secondary outcome measuresAAC scores can be accurately identified on lateral spine images obtained by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, and both the AAC-24 and AAC-8 semiquantitative scoring tools were used for AAC evaluation. Linear regression analysis was used to investigate the relationship between periodontitis and the AAC-8 and AAC-24 scores. Multivariate logistic regression models and reported ORs were used to examine the relationship between periodontitis and AAC.ResultsThe prevalence of severe periodontitis combined with severe AAC was 8.49%-8.54%. According to the AAC-8 and AAC-24 score classifications, patients with severe periodontitis had higher odds of severe AAC (AAC-8 score ≥3: (OR: 2.53; 95% CI 1.04 to 6.17) and AAC-24 score >6: (OR: 3.60; 95% CI 1.48 to 8.78)). A positive association between mild-moderate periodontitis and severe AAC was found only when the AAC-24 score was applied (OR: 2.25; 95% CI 1.24 to 4.06). In the subgroup analyses, the likelihood ratio test showed no multiplicative interaction (all p value for interaction >0.05).ConclusionsThe findings showed that periodontitis is associated with an increased risk of severe AAC in the US population aged 40 years and older; this requires further large-scale prospective studies for confirmation.

Association between the atherogenic index of plasma and abdominal aortic calcification: results from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013-2014.

Project description:BackgroundCoronary artery calcification and cardiovascular disease are associated with elevated levels of atherogenic plasma index (AIP). However, the relationship with abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the association between AIP and AAC using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database.MethodsA cross-sectional analysis was conducted on 2,811 individuals aged 40 years or older from the 2013-2014 NHANES dataset. Participants with missing AAC-24 scores, AIP data, or covariate information were excluded. AAC was quantified using the Kauppila score (AAC-24), with a score > 0 indicating the presence of AAC, and severe AAC (SAAC) being defined as an AAC-24 score ≥ 6. Multivariable regression models and restricted cubic spline analyses were employed to assess the associations between AIP and AAC. Sensitivity analysis was used to validate the robustness of the findings.ResultsThe study population had a mean age of 57.7 years, with 48.22% being male. A significant positive association was found between AIP and both the AAC score and the risk of AAC and SAAC, particularly in females. For the overall population, each unit increase in AIP was associated with an overall increase in AAC-24 score of 0.90 (95% CI: 0.22, 1.58; p = 0.009), and for women, the AAC risk and SAAC risk would be 4.01-fold higher (95% CI: 1.65, 9.74; p = 0.002) and 9.37-fold higher (95% CI: 2.37, 37.03; p = 0.001). No significant associations were found in males. Further analysis revealed a significant interaction between AIP and gender regarding both AAC scores and the risk of SAAC.ConclusionsThis study demonstrates a positive relationship between AIP and increased AAC scores, as well as a higher risk of AAC and SAAC in U.S. women. However, these findings require further investigation to confirm the observed gender-specific differences.

Associations between different triglyceride glucose index-related obesity indices and periodontitis: results from NHANES 2009-2014.

Project description:BackgroundThis study aimed to explore the associations between triglyceride glucose (TyG) index-related obesity indices and periodontitis within the American population.MethodsThis cross-sectional investigation utilized data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) for 2009-2014. The association between the TyG-waist-to-height ratio (TyG-WHtR), TyG-weight-adjusted-waist index (TyG-WWI), TyG-waist circumference (TyG-WC), or TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI) and periodontitis was investigated utilizing multivariable logistic regression model, subgroup, and dose-response curve analyses.ResultsThis study enrolled 4,808 adult participants. Except for TyG-BMI, which did not exhibit a relationship with periodontitis, TyG-WHtR, [odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval (CI))] = 2.83 [1.58-5.10], P = 0.002], TyG-WWI [OR (95% CI) = 7.50 (3.06-18.34), P < 0.001], and TyG-WC [OR (95% CI) = 2.12 (1.23-3.64), P = 0.011] were all associated with periodontitis. Participants in the highest quartile displayed an elevated risk of periodontitis relative to their counterparts in the lowest quartile, as evidenced for TyG-WWI [OR (95% CI) = 1.72 (1.26-2.33), P = 0.001] and TyG-WC [OR (95% CI) = 1.50 (1.13-1.99), P = 0.009] in the full adjustment model. Subgroup analyses suggested more pronounced positive associations between these indices and periodontitis in participants who were < 60 years old, had a BMI ≥ 25, and did not have diabetes. The dose-response curve indicated linear responses in these associations.ConclusionsThis investigation identified a significant and stable association between TyG-WHtR, TyG-WWI, or TyG-WC and periodontitis, which implies a robust correlation between high insulin resistance and susceptibility to periodontitis in the American population.

Association between hemoglobin A1c and abdominal aortic calcification: results from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013-2014.

Project description:BackgroundHemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), a "gold standard" for the assessment of glycemic control, was associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and coronary artery calcification. However, its effects on abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) are uncertain. The present study comprehensively investigated the association between HbA1c and AAC in the 2013-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examinations Surveys.MethodsAmong 1,799 participants ≥ 40 years, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry-derived AAC was quantified using the Kauppila score (AAC-24). Severe AAC was defined as a total AAC-24 > 6. Weighted linear regression models and logistic regression models were used to determine the effects of HbA1c on AAC. The restricted cubic spline model was used for the dose-response analysis.ResultsThe mean AAC-24 of participants was 1.3, and 6.7% of them suffered from severe AAC. Both AAC-24 and the prevalence of severe AAC increased with the higher tertile of HbA1c (P < 0.001). Elevated HbA1c levels would increase the AAC-24 (β = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.30-1.16) and the risk of severe AAC (OR = 1.63, 95% CI: 1.29-2.06), resulting in nearly linear dose-response relationships in all participants. However, this positive correlation were not statistically significant when participants with diabetes were excluded. Furthermore, subgroup analysis showed significant interactions effect between HbA1c and hypertension on severe AAC with the OR (95% CI) of 2.35 (1.62-3.40) for normotensives and 1.39 (1.09-1.79) for hypertensives (P for interaction = 0.022).ConclusionControlling HbA1c could reduce AAC scores and the risk of severe AAC. Glycemic management might be a component of strategies for preventing AAC among all participants, especially normotensives.

Association between dietary carotenoid intakes and abdominal aortic calcification in adults: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013-2014.

Project description:ObjectiveAbdominal aortic calcification (AAC) is an important marker of subclinical atherosclerosis and a predictor of cardiovascular disease. This study aims to explore the association between carotenoid intakes and AAC.MethodsWe included 2889 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Dietary carotenoid intakes were obtained through 24-h dietary recall interviews. Severe AAC was defined as a Kauppila score > 5. The main analysis utilizes logistic and restricted cubic spline models.ResultSevere AAC was detected in 378 (13.08%) participants. In fully adjusted models, the odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) of α-carotene, β-carotene, β-cryptoxanthin, lycopene, lutein with zeaxanthin and total carotenoid intakes for individuals with severe AAC were 0.53 (0.23-0.77), 0.39 (0.19-0.80), 0.18 (0.05-0.62), 0.40 (0.20-0.78), 0.53 (0.32-0.88) and 0.38 (0.18-0.77) in the highest versus lowest quartile intake, respectively. Dose-response analyses revealed that all of the carotenoids were associated with decreased risk of severe AAC in a nonlinear trend. Total carotenoid intakes of at least 100ug/kg/day were associated with decreased odds for severe AAC.Conclusionα-carotene, β-carotene, β-cryptoxanthin, lycopene, lutein with zeaxanthin and total carotenoids were inversely associated with the risk of severe AAC in adults.

Association between the weight-adjusted-waist index and abdominal aortic calcification in United States adults: Results from the national health and nutrition examination survey 2013–2014

Project description:Background Abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) is recognized as a strong predictor of cardiovascular disease (CVD) events. This study aimed to evaluate the association between weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) and AAC in United States adults aged ≥ 40 years. Materials and methods Data were derived from the 2013–2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). WWI was calculated as waist circumference divided by the square root of weight. AAC scores were quantified by the Kauppila scoring system, and severe AAC was defined as an AAC score ≥ 6. Weighted multivariable regression analysis and subgroup analysis were performed to evaluate the relationship between WWI with AAC scores and severe AAC. The restricted cubic spline model was used for the dose-response analysis. Results A total of 2,772 participants were included with the mean WWI of 11.17 ± 0.73 cm/√kg and mean AAC score of 1.48 ± 3.27. The prevalence of severe AAC was 9.64%. WWI was positively associated with higher AAC scores [β = 0.95, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.65–1.25, P < 0.001] and increased risk of severe AAC [odds ratio (OR) = 1.82; 95% CI: 1.20–2.75; P = 0.005]. A nearly linear relationship between the WWI and the odds of severe AAC was found after adjustment for multiple potential covariates (P for non-linear = 0.625). Subgroup analysis indicated that the association between WWI and AAC was similar in different population settings. Conclusion Higher WWI was associated with higher AAC score and increased risk of severe AAC in United States adults. Further studies are needed to confirm this relationship.

Association of the triglyceride glucose index with obesity indicators and hypertension in American adults based on NHANES 2013 to 2018.

Project description:This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the association between the TyG index and both obesity indicators and hypertension among American adults. Data were drawn from 4,813 adults in the 2013-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Multivariate logistic regression models indicated significant associations between TyG and obesity-related indices with hypertension. Using Cox regression analysis, we examined the relationship between TyG and obesity-related indices in relation to hypertensive prognosis, employing threshold effect analysis and fitted smoothed curves for consistency. Subgroup analyses and interaction tests were conducted. Results showed strong correlations between TyG, TyG-BMI, TyG-WHtR, TyG-WC and hypertension, with odds ratios (ORs) of hypertension rising across TyG quartiles (Q1-Q4). Cardiovascular mortality analysis revealed that TyG (HR = 1.89, 95% CI (1.03,3.51), P < 0.05) and the Q2 group (HR = 4.93, 95% CI (1.29,18.80), P < 0.05) were significantly associated with increased risk. A positive correlation between TyG and hypertension was noted below a threshold of 8.1, with inverse associations beyond this point. The TyG-BMI, TyG-WHtR, and TyG-WC exhibited positive correlations with hypertension, although weakened after reaching a certain threshold. These findings suggested that TyG and related indices are associated with hypertension and may aid in understanding risk stratification in this context.
