Objective To explore the relationship between insulin resistance (IR) indexes and hyperuricemia (HUA) among the people with hypertension. Methods From July to August in 2018,hypertension screening was carried out in Wuyuan county,Jiangxi province,and the data were collected through questionnaire survey,physical measurement,and biochemical test.Logistic regression was performed to analyze the relationship between HUA and IR indexes including metabolic score for IR (METS-IR),triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index,TyG-body mass index (BMI),TyG-waist circumference (WC),visceral adiposity index (VAI),triglyceride (TG)/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),and lipid accumulation product (LAP).The penalty spline method was used for the curve fitting between IR indexes and HUA.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was employed to reveal the correlation between each index and HUA. Results The 14 220 hypertension patients included 6 713 males and 7 507 females,with the average age of (63.8±9.4) years old,the average uric acid level of (418.9±120.6) mmol/L,and the HUA detection rate of 44.4%.The HUA group had higher proportions of males,current drinking,current smoking,diabetes,and using antihypertensive drugs,older age,higher diastolic blood pressure,WC,BMI,homocysteine,total cholesterol,TG,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,blood urea nitrogen,creatinine,aspartate aminotransferase,alanine aminotransferase,total protein,albumin,total bilirubin,direct bilirubin, METS-IR, TyG, TyG-BMI, TyG-WC, VAI, TG/HDL-C, and LAP, and lower systolic blood pressure and HDL-C than the normal uric acid group (all <0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression showed that METS-IR (=1.049,95%=1.038-1.060, <0.001), TyG (=1.639,95%=1.496-1.797, <0.001), TyG-BMI (=1.008,95%=1.006-1.010, <0.001), TyG-WC (=1.003,95%=1.002-1.004, <0.001), lnVAI (=1.850, 95%=1.735-1.973, <0.001), ln(TG/HDL-C) (=1.862,95%=1.692-2.048, <0.001),and lnLAP (=1.503,95%=1.401-1.613,<0.001) were associated with the risk of HUA.Curve fitting indicated that METS-IR,TyG,TYG-BMI,TYG-WC,lnVAI,ln(TG/HDL-C),and lnLAP were positively correlated with HUA (all <0.001),and the AUC of TyG index was higher than that of other IR indexes (all <0.05). Conclusion Increased IR indexes,especially TyG,were associated with the risk of HUA among people with hypertension.

Background: The CRP-albumin-lymphocyte (CALLY) index has potential clinical value as a novel marker integrating inflammatory, nutritional and immune status in the development of colorectal polyps. This study examined whether gender factors influence the association between CALLY and colorectal polyps; in addition to elucidating whether metabolic pathways mediate this relationship.
Methods: This is a cross-sectional study including 5409 adult health screening participants who completed colonoscopy.

Insulin resistance is a heritable risk factor for many chronic diseases; however, the genetic drivers remain elusive. In seeking these, we performed genetic mapping of insulin sensitivity in 670 chow-fed Diversity Outbred in Australia (DOz) mice and identified a genome-wide significant locus (QTL) on chromosome 8 encompassing 17 defensin genes. By taking a systems genetics approach, we identified alpha-defensin 26 (Defa26) as the causal gene in this region.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with metabolic disorders such as insulin resistance and liver fat accumulation. However, the specific mediating role of liver-related metabolic indicators in this association has not been fully studied. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between Metabolic Score for Insulin Resistance (METS-IR) and OSA, focusing on the mediating effects of liver fat percentage (PLF) and hepatic steatosis index (HSI).

Aims And Background: Relative fat mass (RFM) is strongly associated with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and has been shown to be a better predictor than body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC). This study aims to investigate the association between RFM and incident T2DM among adults in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study cohort.
Methods: Data from 8419 participants (4716 women; mean age, 40.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine-metabolic disorder characterized by ovarian dysfunction, with limited effective treatments. This study investigates the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of white kidney bean extract (WKBE) in a PCOS rat model. A PCOS model was established using letrozole, followed by intervention with varying doses of WKBE.
