Abstract

Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is defined as the existence of metabolic profile risk factors and impaired glycemic status such as dysglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance (IR), dyslipidemia, and hypertension. Several studies demonstrated that a diet that promotes proper nutritional intake; plays a critical role in the prevention and control of MetS. Our goal for conducting this cross-sectional study was to investigate any potential relationships between the nutrient adequacy ratio (NAR) and cardiometabolic risk variables within obese individuals. individuals.

Methods: In the present cross-sectional study, 338 seemingly healthy participants who were overweight or obese were enrolled. The assessment of dietary consumption was conducted through a validated questionnaire comprising 168 items Then NAR was calculated for all ten vitamins and six minerals. Biochemical variables are measured by the method of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Also, LDL-C (low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol), QUICKI (quantitative insulin-sensitivity check index), and HOMA-IR (Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance) were calculated using the suggested formulas.

Results: Subjects in the upper NAR tertiles exhibited a significantly higher percentage of fat-free mass (P = .002), appetite (P = .002), and basal metabolic rate (BMR) (P = .002). In addition, Participants in the upper tertiles of NAR consumed a greater amount of energy and all vitamins and minerals included in NAR and meat, fish and poultry (MFP) (P < .001) as well as cholesterol, monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA), and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) (P < .05). Furthermore, no association was shown between NAR and metabolic profile and glycemic status.

Conclusion: According to our findings, a higher nutrient adequacy ratio (NAR) was associated with higher fat-free mass but no significant link between NAR and metabolic profile risk factors was observed.

营养充足比(NAR)能预测肥胖人群的代谢特征和血糖状态吗?
背景:代谢综合征(MetS)被定义为存在代谢谱危险因素和血糖状态受损,如血糖异常、高胰岛素血症、胰岛素抵抗(IR)、血脂异常和高血压。几项研究表明,促进适当营养摄入的饮食;在met的预防和控制中起着关键作用。我们进行这项横断面研究的目的是调查肥胖个体中营养充足率(NAR)和心脏代谢风险变量之间的任何潜在关系。个人。方法:在本横断面研究中,338名超重或肥胖的看似健康的参与者入组。通过一份包含168项的有效问卷对膳食消费进行评估,然后计算所有10种维生素和6种矿物质的NAR。采用酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)测定生化指标。此外,使用建议的公式计算LDL-C(低密度脂蛋白-胆固醇)、QUICKI(定量胰岛素敏感性检查指数)和HOMA-IR(胰岛素抵抗稳态模型评估)。结果:NAR上部的受试者表现出更高的无脂质量百分比(P = .002),食欲(P = .002)和基础代谢率(P = .002)。此外,NAR上层的参与者消耗了更多的能量和NAR和肉、鱼和家禽(MFP)中包含的所有维生素和矿物质(P P)。结论:根据我们的研究结果,较高的营养充足比(NAR)与较高的无脂质量相关,但NAR与代谢谱危险因素之间没有显着联系。

期刊介绍: Nutrition and Metabolic Insights is a peer-reviewed, open-access online journal focusing on all aspects of nutrition and metabolism. This encompasses nutrition, including the biochemistry of metabolism, exercise and associated physical processes and also includes clinical articles that relate to metabolism, such as obesity, lipidemias and diabetes. It includes research at the molecular, cellular and organismal levels. This journal welcomes new manuscripts for peer review on the following topics: Nutrition, including the biochemistry of metabolism, Exercise and associated physical processes, Clinical articles that relate to metabolism, such as obesity, lipidemias and diabetes, Research at the molecular, cellular and organismal levels, Other areas of interest include gene-nutrient interactions, the effects of hormones, models of metabolic function, macronutrient interactions, outcomes of changes in diet, and pathophysiology.
