MetS prevalence in Portugal is high, however an update is needed since the latest Portuguese epidemiological report is from 2017. Thus, this study aims to examine MetS prevalence and its components in the adult and older Portuguese sub-population (Bragança district). Methods: A retrospective observational cross-sectional was conducted with a community sample collected from two Portuguese primary health care centres between January 2019 and December 2020. A total of 6570 individuals aged 18–102 years were included for analysis, among which 3865 women (57.37 ± 18.67 years) and 2705 men (59.97 ± 16.76 years). MetS was defined according to HARM2009 statement and binary logistic regression was performed to analyse the prevalence across sex and age. Results: MetS prevalence in Bragança district was 54.51%. MetS prevalence was higher in men (61.63%) than women (49.52%). Men are 1.53 (95% OR: 1.37–1.72, p < 0.001) times more likely of having MetS compared to women. MetS risk increases with age (OR: 2.68–42.57, p < 0.001) with a decline from the eighties onwards (OR: 27.84, 95% CI: 19.19–40.38, p < 0.001). Men presented higher prevalence of overweight (48.50%) and obesity (28.06%) and women have higher prevalence of abdominal obesity (62.07%). Conclusion: This study reported high prevalence of MetS in the Portuguese sub-population (Bra-gança district). A quasi-linear increase across age was verified in the MetS prevalence for both sexes with a decline from the eighties onwards.","PeriodicalId":41840,"journal":{"name":"Revista Portuguesa de Endocrinologia Diabetes e Metabolismo","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74804532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The mechanisms for this association are not fully elucidated. We aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and COVID-19, as well as the impact of blood glucose control on mortality. Material and Methods: In this retrospective study, we included 97 patients (38 with T2DM, 59 without diabetes). We compared demographic characteristics, comorbidities, admission findings and outcomes between patients with and without diabetes. To assess glycaemic control, individual derived time in range (70-180 mg/dL) was derived as the proportion of values within range. Derived time above range was calculated as the proportion of values above range. Results: The fatality rate of patients with diabetes was 36.8%. Among these patients, nonsurvivors presented with higher Pneumonia Severity Index score (159 +/- 36 vs 109 +/- 30, p=0.001), a higher N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide (5521 [4256-15280] vs 1541 [288-2349] pg/mL, p=0.047), a lower PaO2/FiO2 ratio (214 [181-259] vs 300 [248-347], p=0.033) and were more likely to have bilateral lung involvement at admission (78.6% vs 29.2%, p=0.013). Rates of acute kidney injury (85.7% vs 33.3%, p=0.003), acute heart failure (57.1% vs 25.0%, p=0.048) and secondary bacterial infection (64.3 vs 26.1%, p=0.022) were higher in deceased patients. Nonsurvivors had a lower derived time in range (38% vs 73%, p=0.020) and a higher derived time above range (62% vs 27%, p=0.020). Conclusion: A poorer glucose control assessed by lower derived time in range during hospitalization was associated with in-hospital death.","PeriodicalId":41840,"journal":{"name":"Revista Portuguesa de Endocrinologia Diabetes e Metabolismo","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81174173","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
