Riesgo cardiovascular en sujetos con alta probabilidad de síndrome metabólico y resistencia a la insulina. Estudio DESIRE

Introduccion y objetivos El sindrome metabolico agrupa alteraciones estrechamente relacionadas. El objetivo principal de este estudio es conocer la frecuencia del sindrome metabolico y de la resistencia a la insulina, y su papel como indicadores de riesgo cardiovascular en poblacion adulta asignada a consultas de Atencion Primaria en Espana. Metodos Sujetos ≥ 45 anos con glucemia basal ≥ 90 mg/dl y perimetro de cintura ≥ 94 cm (hombres) u 80 cm (mujeres). Se utilizaron los criterios del ATP III modificados para identificar el sindrome metabolico y el indice HOMA > 3,29 para la resistencia a la insulina. El riesgo cardiovascular se estimo mediante los modelos Framingham y SCORE. Resultados S…

Prevalence of plasma lipid abnormalities and its association with glucose metabolism in Spain: The di@bet.es study

Abstract Introduction Dyslipidemia is a significant contributor to the elevated CVD risk observed in type 2 diabetes mellitus. We assessed the prevalence of dyslipidemia and its association with glucose metabolism status in a representative sample of the adult population in Spain and the percentage of subjects at guideline-recommended LDL-C goals. Material and methods The di@bet.es study is a national, cross-sectional population-based survey of 5728 adults. Results A total of 4776 subjects were studied. Dyslipidemia was diagnosed in 56.8% of subjects; only 13.2% of subjects were treated with lipid lowering drugs. Lipid abnormalities were found in 56.8% of Spanish adults: 23.3% with high LDL…

Renal function and attributable risk of death and cardiovascular hospitalization in participants with diabetes from a registry-based cohort

Abstract Aims To estimate the attributable risk of renal function on all-cause mortality and cardiovascular hospitalization in patients with diabetes. Methods A prospective cohort study in 19,469 adults with diabetes, free of cardiovascular disease, attending primary care in Spain (2008–2011). The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and other variables were collected and patients were followed to the first hospitalization for coronary or stroke event, or death, until the end of 2012. The cumulative incidence of the study endpoints by eGFR categories was graphically displayed and adjusted population attributable risks (PARs) for low eGFR was calculated. Results Mean follow-up was 3.2…
