HYPERTRIGLYCERIDEMIC WAIST (EWET), GLYCIDIC AND LIPID PROFILE IN PATIENTS WITH NEWLY DIAGNOSED HEART ATTACK.
Nutrición Hospitalaria : Organo Oficial de la Sociedad Española de Nutrición Parenteral y Enteral 2015 September 2
INTRODUCTION: hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype (EWET) has been poorly tested in patients with established cardiovascular disease.
OBJECTIVES: to evaluate a possible association between EWET, glycidic and lipid profile in patients with newly diagnosed heart attack (HA).
METHODS: cross-sectional study among 45 inpatients with myocardial infarction. Lipid profile (total cholesterol, HDL-c, LDL-c, serum triglycerides, TC/HDL-c ratio, non-HDL cholesterol) and glycidic profile (fasting glucose, serum insulin, glycated hemoglobin, HOMA-IR, glucose/insulin ratio) were obtained. Weight, height and waist circumferences (WC) were assessed; BMI and EWET were calculated. Analysis of Covariance Models (ANCOVA) was used to assess the objectives.
RESULTS: mean age of participants was 58.75 ± 12.41 years and 55.6% (n = 25) were men. After adjustment for age, gender and BMI, EWET was significantly associated with lower HDL-c (p = 0.02), higher TC/HDL-c ratio (p = 0.003) and a trend toward fasting glucose (p = 0.11).
CONCLUSION: EWET phenotype seems to be associated with a worse lipidic profile in patients with newly diagnosed HA.
