Methods 268 eligible subjects of Pudong ShangGan community, aged 45-80 years, volunteered to participate in this cross-sectional survey. Fasting insulin was measured by means of a radioimmunoassay. Results Anthropometric parameters ,fasting blood glucose and insulin, increased in a linear fashion across quartiles of HOMA-IR after adjustment for age and sex. HOMA-IR was significantly associated with measures of anthropometry (BMI,r = 0. 30; waist circumference, r =0. 35; and waist-to-hip ratio,r =0.21), fasting (glucose,r =0. 41; insulin,r=0. 71), and cardiovascular risk factors ( cholesterol, r = 0. 23; triglyceride,r = 0. 31; systolic blood pressure,r= 0. 25; and diastolic blood pressure, r = 0. 20; all P < 0. 0001). In logistic regression analysis, odds ratios indicate that individuals with obesity ( high levels of BMI and waist circumference) were more than 4 times likely to have elevated HOMA-IR. With increase of log triglycerides, the risk of having elevated HOMA-IR increased more than 2. 4 times. For increase in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, the likelihood of having elevated HOMA-IR increased >1. 8 times. Conclusion HOMA-IR was significantly and independently associated with risk factors of cardiovascular disease in this study.展开更多
