Association Between Weight-Adjusted Waist Index and Albuminuria in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in the Chinese Population.
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) and albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the Chinese population.
Patients and methods: A total of 860 adult patients in the Department of Endocrinology of the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University were retrospectively analyzed from June 2018 to September 2023. Correlations between WWI and albuminuria (albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) ≥ 30 mg/g were defined as albuminuria) were analyzed using the Pearson and Spearman methods. The associations between albuminuria and Age, gender, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference/ hip circumference (WHR), systolic blood pressure(SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-hour postprandial plasma glucose (2h PG), fasting plasma insulin (FIns), 2-h postprandial insulin (2hINS), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), WWI, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) were analyzed via binary logistic regression.
Results: Compared with the normal albumin group, serum urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, UACR, and WWI levels in the albuminuria group were significantly increased, while estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) levels were significantly decreased (P < 0.05). Correlation analyses revealed that WWI was positively correlated with UACR but negatively correlated with urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, and eGFR (P < 0.05). Binary logistic regression analyses indicated that WWI was an independent risk factor for albuminuria in T2DM patients. Receiver operating characteristic curve results showed that the area under the curve for albuminuria as predicted by WWI was 0.605 [95% CI = (0.563-0.646), P < 0.001].
Conclusion: WWI is independently associated with albuminuria in the Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes and may serve as a simple indicator for albuminuria risk assessment.
