The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a long-term community-based lifestyle intervention on the biochemical indicators and prevalence of metabolic syndrome among elderly adults. This was a randomized controlled trial in northern Taiwan from August 2013 to February 2015. Sixty-nine elderly adults participated in this study. There were three measurements. The experimental group participated in exercise and diet interventions. The control group participated in the exercise intervention. Repeated measurement and ANCOVA were performed to evaluate the effectiveness. After 18 months, body weight (1.06 kg), body mass index (1.21 kg/m2), waist circumference (3.32 cm), blood pressure, and prevalence (30.4%) of metabolic syndrome were significantly reduced in all subjects. There were significant differences in waist circumference and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol between the two groups. This intervention can lower the indicators and prevalence of metabolic syndrome. Exercise and diet interventions could promote further metabolic changes.

Abstract Background: There is increasing trend of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in rural areas of China in recent years. It is necessary to figure out the possible risk factors of MetS for better intervention. This community-based prospective cohort study was performed to assess the relationship between snoring status and incidence of MetS.Methods: We conducted a cohort study among residents aged ≥ 35 years without MetS in 2012-2013. Among 5,691 residents who met the inclusion criteria, 4,980 residents (2,586 men and 2394 women; follow-up proportion: 87.5%) remained available for follow-up examinations during 2015-2017. The main outcome was the incidence of MetS, defined by the unify criteria in 2009. We divided residents by snoring status and compared outcome between groups. Using a logistic regression model, we estimated the odds ratio (OR) for incidence for MetS, adjusting for confounders, ages, gender, exercise habit, sleep duration, alcohol and smoke consumption. Results: With a median follow up of 4.6 years, incidence of MetS was higher in snorers (men 26.2%, women 33.5%) than in non-snorers (men 19.7%, women 23.2%). Diastolic blood pressure increased in follow-up compared with baseline in male snorers but decreased in male non-snorers. Similarly, fast blood glucose level increased in female snorers at follow-up but decreased in female non-snorers. We found a significant association between snoring and incidence of MetS (adjusted OR=1.51, 95%CI=1.32-1.74). Besides, as the degrees of the snoring increased, the incidence of MetS increased simultaneously. And the OR for the very severe snoring was double compared with non-snorers (adjusted OR=2.10, 95%CI=1.38-3.20). Conclusion: Snoring is associated with higher incidence of MetS in rural Northeast Chinese. More emphasis should be paid to residents with snoring problem.

Abstract Background Both elevated homocysteine (Hcy) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are associated with cardio-metabolic disease. However, the potential causality in the association between Hcy and MetS is unclear, and there is uncertainty about the importance of serum level of folate and vitamin B12 for MetS. The aim of this study was to determine the prospective associations between serum homocysteine, folate and vitamin B12, and incidence of MetS in a community-based cohort of Korean adults aged ≥ 40 years. Methods We measured serum Hcy, folate and vitamin B12 in 2,895 participants (1,187 men and 1,708 women) who did not have MetS. During follow-up (10,043 person-years), 471 MetS cases were newly diagnosed. Results Higher Hcy levels were positively associated with risk of MetS (adjusted incidence rate ratio, IRR 1.87; 95% CI, 1.07–3.25 for ≥15 compared with <10 μmol/L of Hcy in men; IRR 1.81; 95% CI, 1.06–3.08 for ≥10 compared with <5 μmol/L of Hcy in women). However, serum folate was not associated with MetS, and higher serum vitamin B12 levels were associated with a statistically significant protection of MetS in men only (IRR 0.61; 95% CI, 0.42–0.90; P for trend=0.0082 in the highest tertile). Conclusions Hcy levels were positively associated in men and women, and serum vitamin B12 was inversely associated with risk of MetS in men but not in women. Serum folate do not seem to be a protective marker for MetS. Key messages Our results extend previously reported associations of Hcy with MetS, and the absence of associations of folate with MetS.

Increased Risk

Introduction: Recent investigations have highlighted the central role of mediators produced by adipose tissue in the pathogenesis of metabolic dysregulation. We evaluated a multimarker panel of 6 adipokines (adiponectin, leptin, leptin receptor, fetuin-A, adipocyte-fatty acid binding proteins, retinol binding protein-4 [RBP4]) and related them prospectively to the incidence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and change in metabolic traits on follow-up in a community-based sample of younger adults. We hypothesized that these adipokines would be associated with incidence of MetS and with longitudinal tracking of its components. Methods and Results: We evaluated the adipokine panel measured in 2208 Framingham third generation cohort participants (55% women; mean age 40 years). On follow-up (mean 6 years), 253 individuals developed new-onset MetS. After adjustment for standard clinical risk factors, the multimarker adipokine panel was associated with incident MetS (P = 0.002). Using a backward elimination process, both RBP4 and fetuin-A were significantly associated with development of MetS (multivariable-adjusted OR per 1-SD increment log marker, 1.23 [P= 0.01] and 1.17 [P= 0.03], respectively). Using the group with both the RBP4 and fetuin-A under the median serving as the referent, individuals with levels of both RBP4 and fetuin-A above the median experienced an increased risk for developing MetS (multivariable adjusted OR = 1.7 [95% CI, 1.10 - 2.65], P = 0.01). In multivariable adjusted logistic regression models, both RBP4 and fetuin-A were significantly associated with an increase in systolic BP (P =0.004 and P = 0.045, respectively) and increased fasting glucose. In addition, RBP4 was significantly associated with longitudinal increase in diastolic BP (P = 0.007). Conclusions: Our findings, based on prospective follow-up of a large community-based sample of younger adults, suggest higher levels of RBP4 and fetuin-A are associated with incident MetS and may constitute potential future therapeutic targets.
