RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Dyslipidemia contributes to the pathogenesis of renal dysfunction. Previous research demonstrated that triglycerides (TG), instead of other individual lipid indexes, has a significant link with elevated urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR). However, it is unclear whether lipid ratios are superior indicators of increased UACR compared with TG. This research is to determine whether there are close relationships of lipid ratios with UACR in a general population. METHODS: 35,751 participants from seven centers across China were enrolled. UACR equal or higher than 30 mg/g was recognized as increased albuminuria. The associations of TG, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)/ high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), TG/HDL-C and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C)/HDL-C with increased UACR were evaluated by linear and logistic regression analyses in females and males separately. RESULTS: There were 3692 (14.8%) female subjects, and 1307 (12.0%) male subjects characterized as having increased UACR. There were significantly differences in TG/HDL-C and non-HDL-C/HDL-C between the normal UACR group and the increased UACR group, while LDL-C/HDL-C was not. Furthermore, linear regression analysis was implemented and showed that TG and TG/HDL-C were both positively related to UACR even after a variety of potential confounders were adjusted regardless of sexes, while the correlation between non-HDL-C/HDL-C and elevated UACR were only significant in females. Further analyses utilizing logistic regression demonstrated that compared with non-HDL-C/HDL-C and TG, TG/HDL-C showed the strongest association with increased UACR (quartile 1 of TG/HDL-C as a reference; OR [95% CI] of quartile 4: 1.28 [1.13-1.44] in women, 1.24 [1.02-1.50] in men) after fully adjusting for potential confounding factors. Stratified analyses revealed that in males who were overweight and in females who were overweight or over 55 years or had prediabetes or prehypertension, TG/HDL-C had significant associations with abnormal UACR. CONCLUSIONS: Compared with TG and other routine lipid ratios, TG/HDL-C is a superior indicator for increased UACR.

PURPOSES: To evaluate the influence of dyslipidemia on 24-h urine composition in adults who were non-stone formers (NF). METHODS: Samples for 24-h urine composition were analyzed from 584 NF adults without urolithiasis in a national six-city-based epidemiologic study. The samples were divided into groups based on total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL). The groups were compared based on demographic data and each component of 24-h urinalysis. RESULTS: The numbers of participants in high TG, high TC, high LDL, and low HDL were 106, 175, 147, and 59, respectively. The high TG group had increased urinary excretions of oxalate [mean difference (MD) = 0.032 mmol, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.000-0.065] and potassium (MD = 4.298 mmol, 95%CI: 0.182-8.414). Increased urinary excretion of calcium (MD = 0.531 mmol, 95%CI: 0.061-1.001), sodium (MD = 41.561 mmol, 95%CI: 9.179-73.942), and chloride (MD = 45.209 mmol, 95%CI: 12.118-78.299) were found in the high TC group. Interestingly, the high LDL group had a decreased urinary excretion of calcium (MD = - 0.573 mmol, 95%CI: -1.048 to - 0.097), oxalate (MD = - 0.038 mmol, 95%CI: -0.07 to - 0.006), sodium (MD = - 53.285 mmol, 95%CI: -85.823 to - 20.748), and chloride (MD = - 55.809 mmol, 95%CI: -89.035 to - 22.583). Increased urinary excretions of citrate (MD = 0.455 mmol, 95%CI: 0.076-0.835) and magnesium (MD = 0.697 mmol, 95%CI: 0.244-1.149) were found in the low HDL group. CONCLUSIONS: The present study first investigated the effects of dyslipidemia on 24-h urinalysis in NF adults. Of note, high LDL and low HDL were found to be adversely related to kidney stone formation. However, people with high TG and high TC should be cautious of getting kidney stones.

AIM: Human exposure to organic pollutants (some of them also called endocrine disruptors) can be associated with adverse metabolic health outcomes including type 2 diabetes. The goal of this study was to compare the urine levels of bisphenol A and phthalate metabolites in subgroups of patients with metabolic syndrome composed of patients with and without three important components of metabolic syndrome (hypertension, dyslipidemia and diabetes). METHODS: We have investigated 24 hr urine samples of 168 patients with metabolic syndrome from the Metabolic Outpatient Department of General University Hospital in Prague. Using standard metabolic syndrome criteria, we classified patients as dyslipidemic (n=87), hypertensive (n=96), and type 2 diabetic (n=58). Bisphenol A and 15 metabolites of phthalates were evaluated in relation to creatinine excretion. Samples were analysed with enzymatic cleavage of glucuronide using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry in one laboratory with external quality control. RESULTS: Four metabolites, mono-n-butyl phthalate, mono-(2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl) phthalate, mono-(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl) phthalate, and mono-(2-ethyl-5-carboxypentyl) phthalate showed significantly higher levels in diabetic compared to non-diabetic patients (p<0.001, p=0.002, p=0.002, and p=0.005, respectively). The differences remained significant after adjustment to hypertension, dyslipidemia, age, and BMI. No difference was found between either the hypertensive and non-hypertensive or dyslipidemic and non-dyslipidemic patients. There was no significant relation of bisphenol A level to diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, age, and BMI. CONCLUSIONS: Urine levels of four phthalate metabolites were significantly higher in type 2 diabetics independently on specified predictors. Phthalate levels can be in relation to beta cell dysfunction in type 2 diabetic patients but this study is not able to show if the relation is causal.

PURPOSE: We studied the impact of dyslipidemia on 24-hour urinalysis and stone composition. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively identified patients with nephrolithiasis who underwent 24-hour urinalysis and lipid profile evaluation within 3 months. Patients were divided into groups based on total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein, nonhigh density lipoprotein and triglycerides. The groups were compared based on demographic data, diabetes, hypertension and each component of 24-hour urinalysis and stone composition. Multivariate analysis and linear regression were performed to control for potential confounders, including age, gender, body mass index, diabetes and hypertension. RESULTS: A total of 2,442 patients with a mean age of 51.1 years were included in study. On multivariate analysis patients with high total cholesterol had significantly higher urinary potassium and calcium, those with low high density lipoprotein or high triglycerides had significantly higher urinary sodium, oxalate and uric acid with lower pH, and those with high nonhigh density lipoprotein had higher urinary sodium and uric acid. Regarding stone composition, high total cholesterol and triglycerides were significantly associated with a higher uric acid stone rate (p = 0.006 and <0.001, respectively). Linear regression showed a significant association of nonhigh density lipoprotein with higher urinary sodium (p = 0.011) and uric acid (p <0.001) as well as triglycerides and higher uric acid (p = 0.017), and lower urinary pH (p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: There is a link between dyslipidemia and kidney stone risk that is independent of other components of metabolic syndrome such as diabetes and obesity. Specific alterations in the patient lipid profiles may portend unique aberrations in urine physicochemistry and stone risk.

BACKGROUND: Microalbuminuria has been shown to be a risk factor for cardiovascular and renal disease in patients with hypertension and diabetes as well as in the general population. Urinary albumin excretion over 24 h is considered a 'gold standard' to detect microalbuminuria. Few studies have used 24-h urinary albumin excretion to analyze the prevalence of and related factors for microalbuminuira in a general Chinese population. METHODS: This study included 1980 adults aged 18-69 years from the Shandong-Ministry of Health Action on Salt and Hypertension (SMASH) Project 2011 survey. Blood pressure, height, weight and waist circumference were measured, and a venous blood and timed 24-h urine samples were collected from each participant. Linear and logistic regression analyses were used to test associations between established cardiovascular risk factors and microalbuminuria. RESULTS: The median (25th-75th percentile) of 24-h urinary albumin excretion was 6.1 mg/d (4.5-8.7 mg/d) for all adults, 6.0 mg/d (4.4-8.5 mg/d) for men and 6.2 mg/d (4.6-8.9 mg/d) for women. The overall prevalence of microalbuminuria was 4.1% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.2-5.0%), 3.7% (95% CI: 2.9-4.5%) for men and 4.6% (95% CI: 3.7-5.5%) for women. Microalbuminuria was present in 8.1% (95% CI: 6.9-9.3%) of individuals with hypertension, 11.4% (95% CI: 10.0-12.8%) of those with diabetes and 15.6% (95% CI: 14.0-17.2%) of those with both. Multiple logistic regression analysis indicated that systolic blood pressure (odds ratio [OR] 1.02; 95% CI: 1.01-1.03) and fasting blood glucose (OR 1.19; 95% CI: 1.05-1.35) were the independent risk factors for microalbuminuria. CONCLUSIONS: Adults in the general population of Shandong Province have a moderate prevalence of microalbuminuria. Those with hypertension and diabetes are at high risk of having microalbuminuria, suggesting the need for screening and early intervention for microalbuminuria among these individuals.

This cross-sectionally designed study was based on data collected during the 2008-2010 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. A total 3231 South Korean men aged more than 19 years were included. Urinary cotinine concentrations were measured. Smoking status was defined using questionnaire responses and urinary cotinine concentrations. Hierarchical multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to assess the association of urinary cotinine concentrations with the prevalence of dyslipidemia and various parameters of dyslipidemia. There is a significant dose-related association between smoking as assessed by urinary cotinine concentration and dyslipidemia and various parameters of dyslipidemia among South Korean men.

In patients suffering from urolithiasis, metabolic diagnostics often reveals abnormalities contributing to the formation of stones: hypocitraturia, hyper- and hypocalcemia, hypercalciuria, hypomagnesemia/hypomagnesuria, hyperoxalaturia, etc. Before surgery, complex biochemical examination of blood and 24-hourcollection urine in 82 patients with urolithiasis was performed. The analysis of the main laboratory parameters of carbohydrate, lipid, calcium and phosphorus and purine metabolism found the prevalence of violations of calcium and phosphorus metabolism in these patients. Dyslipidemia was diagnosed in 31 (37.8%) patients. There was a significant positive correlation between serum total cholesterol and serum total calcium (rs = 0.3315, P = 0.0103). Low serum calcium levels were associated with hyperoxalaturia (rs = -0.4270, P = 0.0295). There was a significant effect of natriuria on urinary excretion of oxalate (rs = 0.6107, P = 0.0001), Mg (rs = 0.4156, P = 0.0096) and K (rs = 0.5234, P = 0.00005). The study shows the role of magnesium in the prevention of recurrence and manifestation of urolithiasis. The combination of two or more types of hormonal and metabolic disorders increases the incidence of recurrent stones. Timely correction of hormonal-metabolic status allows to reduce the risk of stone formation, and hospitalization attributable to the complications associated.

OBJECTIVE: To measure and correlate the levels of thiamine and dyslipidaemia in microalbuminuric diabetics. METHODS: Cross-sectional comparative study was conducted at the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Army Medical College, Rawalpindi, from January 2009 to December 2010, and comprised 60 known diabetic patients, who were inducted from diabetic clinics of Rawalpindi. These patients were divided into three equal groups, with group I (n=20) being normal healthhy individuals, group II comprised of microalbuminurics type 2 diabetics (n=20) and group III (n=20) were macroalbuminuric type 2 diabetics, based on their albumin excretion rate. The healthy volunteers (n=20) had blood glucose less than 6 mmol/L and were inducted as the comparison group. Fasting blood samples of diabetic and control groups were analysed for glucose, glycosylated haemoglobin, lipid profile, thiamine chloride and thiamine monophosphate. Besides, 24-hour urine samples were analysed for microalbuminuria, thiamine chloride and thiamine monophosphate. RESULTS: Plasma thiamine chloride and thiamine monophosphate levels were found to be significantly (p<0.001) reduced in the diabetics (n=60) compared to the controls (n=20). Furthermore, there was a progressive decline in these levels with increasing albuminuria; the lowest being in the macroalbuminuric group (group IV). Urinary thiamine levels were significantly (p<0.001) higher in the diabetics compared to the controls. These changes were more pronounced as albuminuria level increased; the highest being in group IV. The parameters of lipid profile, including triglycerides, total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, were significantly (p<0.001) higher in diabetics and showed progressive increase with worsening albuminuria. Whereas, the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were significantly (p<0.001) reduced in diabetics and showed progressive decline as the microalbuminuria status worsened. Furthermore, a significant negative correlation was found between plasma thiamine and all the parameters of lipid profile except high-density lipoprotein cholesterol which had a significant positive correlation. A significant linear regression of microalbuminuria on plasma thiamine was also found. CONCLUSION: Thiamine levels were reduced in the diabetic population and this reduction in thiamine level was negatively correlated with lipid profile in microalbuminuric diabetics.

AIMS/INTRODUCTION: Equol, which is produced by enteric bacteria from soybean isoflavones, has a chemical structure similar to estrogen. Both in vivo and in vitro studies have shown the beneficial metabolic effects of equol. However, its effects on type 2 diabetes remain unclear. We investigated the association between the equol producers/non-producers and type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The participants included 147 patients with type diabetes mellitus aged 70-89 years, and 147 age- and sex-matched controls. To ascertain the equol producers or non-producers, we used the comparative logarithm between the urinary equol and daidzein concentrations (cut-off value -1.75). RESULTS: The urinary equol concentration was significantly lower in the diabetes group compared with the non-diabetes group (P = 0.01). A significant difference in the proportion of equol producers was observed among all participants (38.8% in the diabetes group and 53.1% in the non-diabetes group; P = 0.01). The proportion of equol producers among women was significantly lower in the diabetes group (31.4%) than in the non-diabetes group (52.8%; P < 0.01). Additionally, the frequency of dyslipidemia in female equol producers was significantly lower than that in female non-equol producers (P < 0.01). Among men, no such differences were observed. We found a significant positive correlation between the urinary equol and daidzein concentrations among equol producers (r = 0.55, P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Our study findings showed that postmenopausal women had a low proportion of equol producers with diabetes and dyslipidemia.

BACKGROUND: The relationship between glycemic control and lipid abnormalities with urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is unknown. We sought to investigate the association of dyslipidemia and glycemic control with levels of albuminuria in the National Kidney Foundation (NKF) Kidney Early Evaluation Program (KEEP) participants with DM and CKD stage 3 or higher. METHODS: We performed a cross-sectional study of 6639 eligible KEEP patients with DM and CKD Stage 3 to 5 from June 2008 to December 2009. Multivariate logistic regression was used to evaluate the association of lipid parameters (per 10 mg/dl change in serum level) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) values with three degrees of albuminuria normo (<30 mg/g), micro (30 to 300 mg/g) and macro (>300 mg/g). RESULTS: 2141 KEEP participants were included. HbA1c levels were strongly associated with micro-albuminuria (compared to normo-albuminuria) and macro-albuminuria (compared to normo-albuminuria and micro-albuminuria). Each 1.0% increase in HbA1c increased the odds of micro-albuminuria by 32% (OR 1.32, 95% CI 1.23-1.42) and the odds of macro-albuminuria (vs. microalbuminuria) by 16% (OR 1.16, 95% CI 1.05-1.28). Only increases in serum HDL were associated with decreased odds of micro-albuminuria; otherwise, the association between other components of the serum lipid profile with urinary ACR did not reach statistical significance. CONCLUSION: In this cross-sectional study of 2141 KEEP participants with DM and CKD stages 3-5, overall glycemic control but not lipids were associated with abnormal urinary albumin excretion, a marker of increased risk for progressive disease.

INTRODUCTION: Aim and background: the incidence of obesity has increased among children, and obesity has been considered an independent risk factor for chronic kidney disease. We aimed to determine the degree of kidney function impairment by evaluating urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) levels. Materials and methods: in total, 15 obese, 26 overweight, and 26 control adolescents aged 10 to 16 years were enrolled into the study. Urine samples were evaluated for NGAL and KIM-1 levels using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits. We investigated the association between obesity and related comorbidities with urinary NGAL and KIM-1 excretion. Results: no significant differences were noted between the obese, overweight, and control groups in urinary NGAL and KIM-1 excretion (p = 0.327 and p = 0.917, respectively). In the obese and overweight groups urinary NGAL levels were 50.39 [30.88-74.22] in females and 26.67 [23.24-45.59] in males (p = 0.013). Also, urinary NGAL levels were increased in obese and overweight adolescents with LDL dyslipidemia at 64.12 [30.98-114.32] as compared to those without LDL dyslipidemia: 39.51 [25.59.56.37] (p = 0.024). Furthermore, a correlation was observed between insulin and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance levels with the NGAL/creatinine ratio in the overweight group (r = 0.515; p = 0.008, and r = 0.483; p = 0.014, respectively). Such correlation was not found in the obese group. Conclusion: the effect of obesity on renal function could not be determined in children. A longer exposure may be required for obesity-induced disruption of renal function in children. Renal function may be disrupted by dyslipidemia in obese adolescents. Furthermore, obesity impaired renal function in female adolescents. The normalization of these urinary markers as related to urine creatinine should be discussed.
INTRODUCCIÓN: Introducción: la incidencia de la obesidad en la edad infantil ha aumentado. Se considera la obesidad como un factor de riesgo independiente para el desarrollo de la enfermedad renal crónica. El objetivo de este estudio fue valorar el grado de alteración de la función renal evaluando los niveles urinarios de NGAL y KIM-1. Material y métodos: el estudio incluyó a 15 adolescentes con obesidad, 26 con sobrepeso y 26 controles sanos.Edades de los participantes entre los 10 y los 16 años. Los niveles de NGAL y KIM-1 en orina se determinaron mediante kit ELISA. Se investigó asociación entre obesidad y su comorbilidad con excreción urinaria de NGAL y KIM-1. Resultados: no se encontraron diferencias significativas en la excreción urinaria de NGAL y KIM-1 entre los sujetos con obesidad, los sujetos con sobrepeso y los controles sanos (p = 0,327 y 0,917, respectivamente). En el grupo con sobrepeso y obesidad, los niveles de NGAL en las niñas fueron de 50,39 (30,88-74,22), mientras que en los niños fueron de 26,67 (23,24-45,59) (p = 0,013). Para los sujetos con dislipemia de LDL, el nivel de NGAL fue de 64,12 (30,98-114,32) frente a 39,5 (25,59-56,37) entre los que no la tenían (p = 0,024). Se encontró correlación entre los nivles de insulina, el HOMA-IR y la ratio NGAL/creatinina en el grupo con sobrepeso (r = 0,515; p = 0,008, y r = 0,483; p = 0,014, respectivamente). En el grupo con obesidad no se encontró dicha correlación. Conclusiones: se precisa una duración más prolongada para encontrar alterada la función renal en los niños con exceso de peso. La función renal puede alterarse por la dislipemia en el caso de los adolescentes con obesidad. La función renal se afecta más en las adolescentes femeninas.

Background: Iodine is important in both thyroid function and human metabolism. Studies have explored the effect of iodine on metabolic disorders through thyroid function. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between iodine status and metabolic disorders, such as metabolic syndrome (MetS), hypertension, impaired glucose metabolism, central obesity, and dyslipidemia. Methods: A total of 51,795 subjects aged ≥18 years from the TIDE (Thyroid Disorders, Iodine Status and Diabetes, a national epidemiological cross-sectional study) program were included. The prevalence of metabolic disorders and its related diseases was calculated based on the level of urinary iodine concentrations (UICs) using the chi-square method. To further explore whether the prevalence was associated with UIC, quadratic and UIC-stratified logistic regression models were used. Results: The prevalence of metabolic disorders as a function of UIC was found to be U-shaped with a lower prevalence of 76.0% at an UIC of 300-499 µg/L. Participants with an UIC of 300-499 µg/L showed an association with metabolic disorders (odds ratio [OR] = 0.857, 95% confidence interval [CI 0.796-0.922]) and hypertension (OR = 0.873 [CI 0.814-0.936]). An UIC of 300-799 µg/L was found to be associated with the occurrence of MetS and impaired glucose tolerance. An UIC of 500-799 µg/L was associated with the occurrence of prediabetes (OR = 0.883 [CI 0.797-0.978]). An UIC of ≥300 µg/L was associated with the occurrence of hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, and high levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Furthermore, an UIC of <100 µg/L showed an association with hypertension (OR = 1.097 [CI 1.035-1.162]) and hypercholesterolemia (OR = 1.178 [CI 1.117-1.242]). Conclusions: The association between UICs in adults and metabolic disorders and its related diseases is U-shaped. The association between UIC and metabolic disorders disappears in cases of iodine deficiency (<100 µg/L) or excess (≥500 µg/L).

Chromium exposure can induce altered lipoprotein metabolism in animals, but the health effects of chromium on dyslipidemia in humans have not been fully evaluated. In this study, we aimed to investigate the cross-sectional and longitudinal effects of urinary chromium on lipid levels and dyslipidemia risk among urban adults from two cities in China. A total of 3762 urban adults from the Wuhan-Zhuhai cohort were included in the initial investigation, and followed up three years later. Urinary chromium concentration was measured at baseline and repeated at follow-up. Associations of urinary chromium concentration with lipid levels and risk of dyslipidemia were analyzed by generalized linear and binary logistic regression models, respectively. We found significant relationships between increased urinary chromium concentration and both reduced triglyceride (TG) level and elevated high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level at baseline and follow-up. In the cross-sectional analysis, each 1-unit increase in log-transformed urinary chromium was associated with a 0.25â¯mmol/L decrease in TG and a 0.05â¯mmol/L increase in HDL-C (Pâ¯<â¯0.05); also, downward trends for odds ratios of hyperTG (TG levelâ¯≥â¯1.7â¯mmol/L) and hypoHDL-C (HDL-C levelâ¯<â¯1.0â¯mmol/L) were significantly associated with increasing quartiles of urinary chromium (P trendâ¯<â¯0.05). In the longitudinal analysis, each 1-unit increase in log-transformed urinary chromium concentration was associated with a 3% and 6% decrease in the risk of developing hyperTG and hypoHDL-C, respectively (Pâ¯>â¯0.05). Our study indicated that significant dose-response relationships between urinary chromium concentration and lipid levels were observed at baseline and at follow-up.

BACKGROUND: Exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) has been associated with metabolic diseases. However, relationships between PAH exposures and dyslipidemias have not been well addressed. OBJECTIVES: To investigate associations between urinary PAH metabolite concentrations and dyslipidemias in the general population. METHODS: Twelve urinary PAH metabolites and four serum lipid profiles were measured in 3640 Chinese adults from the Wuhan-Zhuhai cohort. Dyslipidemias, including hyper-total cholesterol (HyperTC), hyper-triglyceride (HyperTG), hyper-low density lipoprotein cholesterol (HyperLDL-C), and hypo-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HypoHDL-C) were classified according to the levels of serum lipids. Multiple logistic regression models were used to estimate the associations between urinary PAH metabolites and the prevalence of dyslipidemias. The effects of PAH exposure routes on dyslipidemias were further estimated by stratified analysis. RESULTS: We found positive exposure-response relationships between urinary PAH metabolites and the prevalence of dyslipidemias. Compared with the lowest tertile of urinary PAH metabolites, increased risk of HyperTC were observed in those in the highest tertiles; The odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals were 1.23 (1.03, 1.47), 1.44 (1.21, 1.71), 1.19 (1.01, 1.42), and 1.43 (1.20, 1.71) for 1-OHNa, 9-OHFlu, 1-OHPh, and 4-OHPh, respectively. Participants in the highest tertiles of 1-OHNa and 2-OHFlu had higher risk for HyperLDL-C, and the ORs were 1.21 (1.01, 1.45) and 1.18 (0.98, 1.42), respectively. Among smokers, only urinary 1-OHNa was associated with increased risk of HyperTC (1.36, 1.08-1.73) and HyperLDL-C (1.33, 1.01-1.74). While the increasing urinary levels of 9-OHFlu, 1-OHPh, and 4-OHPh were significantly associated with increased risk of HyperTC among non-smokers. In addition, the associations between urinary PAH metabolites and dyslipidemias were more pronounced among non-smokers who are cooked for themselves and had long-term traffic exposure. CONCLUSION: Elevated urinary PAH metabolites were associated with increased risks of HyperTC and HyperLDL-C. The source of PAH exposure could modify PAH species that affect dyslipidemias.

BACKGROUND: The association of metabolic syndrome (MetS) traits with urinary calcium (UCE) or oxalate excretion (UOE) is uncertain in calcium stone formers (CSFs). Our aim was to investigate this association in a large group of Caucasian CSFs. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed data of CSFs evaluated at our Kidney Stone Clinic from 1984 to 2015. Data on body mass index (BMI), MetS traits defined according to international consensus, family history of urolithiasis, anti-hypertensive treatments, calcemia, renal function, and 24-h urinary profile of lithogenic risk were collected. The association between MetS traits and UCE or UOE was tested with multivariate linear regression models accounting for a long list of potential confounders. RESULTS: We included 3003 CSFs, aged 44 ± 14 years. The prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, overweight (BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2) and dyslipidemia was 17, 2, 42 and 38%, respectively. Median values of UCE and UOE were 211 mg/24 h (IQR 143-296) and 28 mg/24 h (IQR 22-34), respectively. At a multivariate model, including age, sex, date of examination, drug treatments, family history, renal function, blood calcium and urinary factors as covariates, hypertension was a significant positive determinant of UCE (ß ± SE 0.23 ± 0.07, p = 0.003), but overweight, dyslipidemia and diabetes were not. No MetS trait was significantly associated with UOE in multivariate models. CONCLUSIONS: In a large group of Caucasian CSFs, hypertension was the only MetS trait significantly associated with UCE, while no MetS trait was associated with oxalate excretion.

Objective: Thyroid hormones are ubiquitously involved in human metabolism. However, the precise molecular patterns associated with alterations in thyroid hormones levels remain to be explored in detail. A number of recent studies took great advantage of metabolomics profiling to outline the metabolic actions of thyroid hormones in humans. Methods: Among 952 participants in the Study of Health in Pomerania, data on serum free thyroxine (FT4) and thyrotropin and comprehensive nontargeted metabolomics data from plasma and urine samples were available. Linear regression analyses were performed to assess the association between FT4 or thyrotropin and metabolite levels. Results and Conclusion: After accounting for major confounders, 106 of 613 plasma metabolites were significantly associated with FT4. The associations in urine were minor (12 of 587). Most of the plasma metabolites consisted of lipid species, and subsequent analysis of highly resolved lipoprotein subclasses measured by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy revealed a consistent decrease in several of these species (e.g., phospholipids) and large low-density lipoprotein and small high-density lipoprotein particles. The latter was unique to men. Several polyunsaturated and saturated fatty acids displayed an association with FT4 in women only. A random forest-based variable selection approach using phenotypic characteristics revealed higher alcohol intake in men and an adverse thyroid state and menopause in women as the putative mediating factors. In general, our observations have confirmed the lipolytic and lipogenic effect of thyroid hormones even in the physiological range and revealed different phenotypic characteristics (e.g., lifestyle differences) as possible confounders for sex-specific findings.

Dyslipidemia is associated with glomerular injury. However, the effect of statins on chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression remains controversial. We aimed to investigate the efficacy of statins for renal protection in patients with CKD. The retrospective cohort study comprised 3441 patients diagnosed with CKD in multiple medical centers. We divided the patients into two cohorts based on statin prescription, and compared proportions and risks of CKD progression events between the two groups. CKD progression event was defined as an average annual decline of eGFR >5 mL/min/1.73 m2 or advancement to the dialysis stage. The result revealed that among all incident patients with CKD, 28.7% and 30.3% of the users and nonusers demonstrated CKD progression, respectively. The crude odds ratio (OR) of CKD progression was 0.93 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.78-1.10]. After adjustment for baseline characteristics, the adjusted OR was 0.80 (95% CI 0.63-1.01). The sensitivity analysis results showed consistent OR for CKD progression, stratification by age, sex, Charlson score, and statins use within 1 year before index date. The effect of statins was significant in patients with CKD stage 3B-5 (OR 0.68, 95% CI 0.48-0.95), but not statistically significant in those with CKD stage 1-3A (OR 0.97, 95% CI 0.68-1.38). The effect of statins was significant in patients with proteinuria ≥1000 mg/day (OR 0.63, 95% CI 0.43-0.92), but not statistically significant in those with proteinuria <1000 mg/day (OR 1.02, 95% CI 0.74-1.41).

UNLABELLED: This study aimed to estimate the relationship between various lipid abnormalities and albuminuria in Korean prediabetic adults. Data obtained from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) 2011-2012 were analyzed. The study consisted of 4,811 subjects in the normal glucose group and 3,872 in the prediabetic group. Prediabetes was defined by the fasting plasma glucose or hemoglobin A1c level. Albuminuria was defined as a urine albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) ≥30 mg/g. Various parameters of dyslipidemia were assessed. No differences were observed in the prevalence of lipid abnormalities in prediabetic men with different values of UACR. Prediabetic women with increased urinary albumin excretion showed a significantly higher prevalence of lipid abnormalities. The proportion of mixed dyslipidemia was significantly higher in prediabetic women with albuminuria. Higher levels of total cholesterol, triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), and TC to HDL-C ratio, TG to HDL-C ratio, and LDL-C to HDL-C ratio were significantly associated with increased risk of albuminuria in prediabetic women. CONCLUSIONS: Several lipid abnormalities were significantly associated with the increased risk of albuminuria in prediabetic women. Hence, screening for lipid abnormalities may be helpful for identification of risk for albuminuria in prediabetic subjects.

BACKGROUND: The association between smoking and metabolic syndrome has not been clarified, especially for women, probably because of the inaccurate self-reported smoking status. This study aimed to investigate the association between cotinine-verified smoking status and metabolic syndrome. METHODS: A total of 11,559 participants from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys were included in this cross-sectional study. Metabolic syndrome was determined according to revised National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III criteria. Smokers were distinguished from nonsmokers by a urinary cotinine level above 50 ng/mL. Multivariable adjusted logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between cotinine-verified smoking status and metabolic syndrome. RESULTS: Prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 28.2% in men and 24.6% in women. Self-reported smoking status was much less consistent with cotinine-verified smoking status in women (kappa values=43.0%) compared with men (kappa value=88.6%). Risk of metabolic syndrome was significantly higher in cotinine-verified smokers than in nonsmokers for both men and women. Among the components of metabolic syndrome, smokers had an increased risk of high triglycerides (TGs), low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and decreased risk of high blood pressure compared with nonsmokers in men. In women, smokers had a higher risk of abdominal obesity and high TGs compared with nonsmokers. CONCLUSIONS: This population-based study showed that smoking was associated with increased risk for metabolic syndrome in men as well as in women and this association is mainly due to the association between smoking and dyslipidemia.

BACKGROUND: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are both man-made and naturally occurring environmental pollutants that may be related to cardiometabolic health risk. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether PAH is associated with obesity in the adult population and to examine whether urinary concentrations of PAH metabolites are associated with differences in how obesity relates to 3 or more risk factors for the metabolic syndrome (3RFMetS), type 2 diabetes (T2D), hypertension, and dyslipidemia. METHODS: A total of 4765 adult participants from the 2001-2008 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were examined. The association between 8 urinary hydroxylated PAH metabolites, obesity, and health were examined using weighted logistic regressions adjusting for age, sex, ethnicity, PIR, smoking status, and urinary creatinine. RESULTS: There was a positive dose-dependent association between obesity and 2-phenanthrene quintiles (P trend <0.0001). Contrarily, higher quintiles of 1-naphthalene were associated with lower risk of obesity (P trend = 0.0004). For a given BMI, those in the highest quintile of 2-naphthalene, 2-fluorene, 3-fluorene and 2-phenanthrene had a 66-80% greater likelihood of 3RFMetS (P≤0.05) compared to low levels. Higher quintiles of 1-naphthalene, 2-naphthalene, 2-phenanthrene and 1-pyrene were associated with a 78-124% greater likelihood of T2D (P≤0.05) compared to low levels while high 1-naphthalene, 2-naphthalene, 2-fluorene, 3-fluorene and 2-phenanthrene were associated with a 38-68% greater likelihood of dyslipidemia (P≤0.05) compared to lower levels. Finally, 2-naphthalene and 2-phenanthrene were positively associated with hypertension (P trend = 0.008 and P trend = 0.02 respectively). CONCLUSIONS: PAH is related to obesity and the expression of a number of obesity-related cardiometabolic health risk factors. Future research is needed to bring to light the mechanistic pathways related to these findings.
