Efficacy of visceral fat estimation by dual bioelectrical impedance analysis in detecting cardiovascular risk factors in patients with type 2 diabetes.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Visceral fat area (VFA) is a good surrogate marker of obesity-related disorders, such as hypertension, dyslipidemia and glucose intolerance. Although estimating the VFA by X-ray computed tomography (CT) is the primary index for visceral obesity, it is expensive and requires invasive radiation exposure. Dual bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a simple and reliable method to estimate VFA; however, the clinical usefulness of dual BIA remains unclear in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS:We estimated the VFAs by dual BIA and CT in 98 patients with T2D and assessed anthropometric parameters, blood test results, and the presence of comorbid hypertension and dyslipidemia. We compared the correlation between the VFAs examined by dual BIA and CT. Furthermore, we performed the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses for the VFAs to detect the presence of comorbid hypertension and/or dyslipidemia with T2D, which are major comorbidities of visceral obesity, and estimated the area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS:The measurement error between the VFAs by dual BIA and CT was significantly higher among patients with brain natriuretic peptide (BNP)???100 pg/mL than those with BNP??100 pg/mL as indicator for fluid accumulation interfering with BIA, estimation of the VFA by dual BIA significantly correlated with that by CT and also detected comorbid hypertension and/or dyslipidemia with T2D equivalent to those detected by CT. Hence, dual BIA could be an alternative to CT as a standard method for estimating the VFA in patients with diabetes.

Project description:BackgroundThe fat-to-muscle mass ratio (FMR) might be an indicator to assess type 2 diabetes risk independent of general obesity. However, no longitudinal studies have explored the extent to which total and regional FMRs may confer risks. We aimed to measure the sex-specific associations between FMRs of the arm, leg, trunk and whole body and incident type 2 diabetes.MethodsA total of 464 817 participants (207 286 men and 257 531 women, mean age 56.5 ± 8.2 and 56.2 ± 8.0 years old, respectively) free of diabetes at baseline were included in this prospective cohort study with UK Biobank data. Fat mass and muscle mass were estimated using a bioelectrical impedance assessment device (Tanita BC 418MA). FMR was calculated as fat mass divided by muscle mass in corresponding body parts (total body, arm, leg and trunk). Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate the aforementioned associations among men and women. Interaction analyses were performed between FMRs and body mass index (BMI) categories (BMI < 25 kg/m2 and BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 ).ResultsOver the median 11.0 years (5 057 534 person-years) of follow-up, we documented 11 618 cases of type 2 diabetes. There was a significantly positive association between total and regional FMR and incident type 2 diabetes, even after adjusting for BMI and other covariates. Compared with other body parts, FMRs of the whole body and leg showed the strongest relationship among men and women, respectively (hazard ratio per 1 SD, 95% confidence interval: 1.67, 1.55-1.80; 1.45, 1.39-1.53). A significant interaction (P for interaction < 0.001) between BMI category and FMRs of different body parts was observed. In the stratified analysis by BMI category and tertiles of FMRs, overweight/obese individuals with a high FMR tertile tended to have the highest hazard ratio, ranging from 5.91 to 7.94 in whole body and regional areas.ConclusionsIn this large prospective study, higher total and regional FMRs were associated with a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes, independent of BMI. This association was markedly strengthened in participants with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 .

Project description:BackgroundThe present study refers to an anthropometric model, Dahlmann-Body-Analysis (DBA), based on formerly developed weight-height-frame tables. Including the anthropometric variable abdomen circumference (AC), a further differentiation into muscularity and fat mass could be realized. This enables to calculate the individual percentage fat mass (%FM), providing a cost-effective method for epidemiological studies. The present work sets out to investigate, whether %FM computed by the DBA model compares to BIA measurements, notably under conditions of heavy obesity.Subjects/methodsIn 103 adults (37 males, 66 females, age 42.5 ± 12.5 years, BMI 38.2 ± 4.8 kg/m²) %FM was estimated by a tetrapolar BIA device and compared to results derived by the DBA system. Bland-Altman and simple linear regression analyses were used to determine agreement between methods.ResultsThe mean %FM estimates of men (women) ± standard deviation were 36.1 ± 4.8 (49.7 ± 4.5) for BIA and 36.7 ± 4.2 (49.1 ± 4.9) for DBA measurements. Pearson correlation coefficients (r) and Lin's concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) were r = 0.86 and CCC = 0.84 for men and r = 0.85 and CCC = 0.83 for women, respectively. Bland-Altman plot showed limits of agreement between DBA and BIA %FM that ranged from 5.5% to -4.3% for men and 4.6% to- 5.7% for women, respectively. Correlations between values measured by both methods were high and the observed confidence interval (SD of the difference between DBA and BIA result multiplied by 2) was low. No systematic error was found. The DBA system overestimates FM by 0.63 ± 4.98 (2SD) % for men and underestimates FM by -0.56 ± 5.28 (2SD) % for women, respectively, compared to the BIA results. The result for both genders is -0.066 ± 5.17 (2SD) %FM. Over all, there is a strong concordance and reproducibility between the DBA and BIA data sets.ConclusionsThe implementation of the abdomen circumference (AC) into the DBA model as a proxy for body fat (%FM) resulted in a strong concordance with BIA measurements. These findings indicate that the DBA model may reflect the body shape of severely obese white European patients with regard to body composition.
