Abstract
Objective: Recent studies have underscored the metabolic and cardiovascular regulatory capacity of perirenal adipose tissue (PAT), implicating its potential involvement in the pathogenesis of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). This investigation aims to assess the relationship between increased PAT mass and LVH, while also examining the potential mediating role of insulin resistance in this relationship among individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Method: 1112 individuals with T2DM were prospectively recruited for this study. Perirenal fat thickness (PrFT), measured using unenhanced abdominal CT, served as a measure of PAT mass. The triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-c) was computed to assess insulin resistance. LVH was identified as left ventricular mass index (LVMI) >115 g/m² in men or LVMI >95 g/m² in women. The correlations of LVH risk with PrFT and TG/HDL-c were analyzed by weighted binomial logistic regression and restricted cubic splines (RCS) analyses. Furthermore, the mediating role of TG/HDL-c in this relationship was explored using the adjusted mediation analysis.
Results: Participants in the LVH group displayed significantly higher PrFT and TG/HDL-c than the non-LVH group (P < 0.001). Adjusting for confounding factors, the LVMI demonstrated a positive correlation with PrFT (β=0.262, P<0.001) and TG/HDL-c (β=0.206, P<0.001). PrFT and TG/HDL-c emerged as independent variables for LVH, with odds ratios of 1.33 (95%CI:1.24-1.43, P<0.001) and 1.20 (95%CI:1.05-1.36, P=0.006), respectively. Each standard deviation increases in PrFT and TG/HDL-c conferred an additional 240% (P<0.001) and 41% (P=0.006) risk for LVH. A linear correlation of LVH risk with PrFT and TG/HDL-c was observed from RCS analysis (P for nonlinear and overall< 0.001). Moreover, TG/HDL-c mediated 13.4% of the association between PrFT and LVMI, and 8.5% between PrFT and LVH.
Conclusion: Increased PAT accumulation contributes to an independent variable for LVH, with insulin resistance acting as a mediating variable in this relationship.
期刊介绍：
Frontiers in Endocrinology is a field journal of the "Frontiers in" journal series.
In today’s world, endocrinology is becoming increasingly important as it underlies many of the challenges societies face - from obesity and diabetes to reproduction, population control and aging. Endocrinology covers a broad field from basic molecular and cellular communication through to clinical care and some of the most crucial public health issues. The journal, thus, welcomes outstanding contributions in any domain of endocrinology.
Frontiers in Endocrinology publishes articles on the most outstanding discoveries across a wide research spectrum of Endocrinology. The mission of Frontiers in Endocrinology is to bring all relevant Endocrinology areas together on a single platform.
