Project description:BackgroundThe association between TyG-BMI index and the risk of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a recently identified biomarker indicating insulin resistance, has yet to be elucidated. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association between TyG-BMI index and the risk of OSA using the NHANES database.MethodsAnalyses were performed on NHANES data conducted between 2015 and 2018. Logistic regression, stratified analyses, curve-fitting analyses, and threshold effects analyses were utilized to assess the association between TyG-BMI index and the risk of OSA.ResultsThe study included 4,588 participants. Multifactorial logistic regression analyses found a significant association between TyG-BMI and increased risk of OSA [OR: 1.54 (CI:1.39-1.70)]. In stratified analyses, age interacted with the association, with TyG-BMI being associated with increased risk of OSA only in a subgroup of subjects younger than 60 years [1.31 (1.14-1.50)], but gender, smoking status, and alcohol use, did not influence the association. The presence of diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases also modified the association, but the number of the included subjects with such conditions was significantly lower, therefore the significance of associations was not observed in those subgroups. Additionally, the risk was non-linearly associated, with the inflection point of TyG-BMI at 12.09, after which the lower slope in the risk was observed.ConclusionThis study demonstrates that elevated levels of the TyG-BMI index are correlated with risk for OSA, underscoring the significance of these findings in facilitating early prevention or timely intervention for OSA.

Project description:Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is associated with increased insulin resistance. Triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) is a simple marker of insulin resistance; however, it has been investigated only by two studies in OSA. The aim of this study was to evaluate TyG in non-diabetic, non-obese patients with OSA. A total of 132 patients with OSA and 49 non-OSA control subjects were included. Following a diagnostic sleep test, fasting blood was taken for the analysis of the lipid profile and glucose concentrations. TyG was calculated as ln(triglyceride [mg/dL] × glucose [mg/dL]/2). Comparison analyses between OSA and control groups were adjusted for age, gender, body mass index (BMI) and smoking. TyG was higher in men (p < 0.01) and in ever-smokers (p = 0.02) and it was related to BMI (ρ = 0.33), cigarette pack-years (ρ = 0.17), apnoea-hypopnoea index (ρ = 0.38), oxygen desaturation index (ρ = 0.40), percentage of total sleep time spent with oxygen saturation below 90% (ρ = 0.34), and minimal oxygen saturation (ρ = -0.29; all p < 0.05). TyG values were significantly higher in OSA (p = 0.02) following adjustment for covariates. OSA is independently associated with higher TyG values which are related to disease severity in non-obese, non-diabetic subjects. However, the value of TyG in clinical practice should be evaluated in follow-up studies in patients with OSA.

Project description:Rationale: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been associated with metabolic dysregulation and systemic inflammation. This may be due to pathophysiologic effects of OSA on visceral adipose tissue. We sought to assess the transcriptional consequences of OSA on adipocytes by utilizing pathway-focused analyses. Methods: Patients scheduled to undergo ventral hernia repair surgery were recruited to wear a portable home sleep monitor for two nights prior to surgery. Visceral fat biopsies were obtained intra-operatively. RNA was extracted and whole-genome expression profiling was performed. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was used to identify curated gene sets that were differentially enriched in OSA subjects. Network analysis was applied to a select set of highly enriched pathways. Results: 10 patients with OSA and 8 control subjects were recruited. There were no differences in age, gender, body mass index between the two groups, but the OSA subjects had a significantly higher respiratory disturbance index (19.2 vs. 0.6, P-value 0.05) and worse hypoxemia (minimum oxygen saturation 79.7% vs. 87.8%, P-value < 0.001). GSEA identified a number of gene sets up-regulated in adipose tissue of OSA patients including the pro-inflammatory NF-M-NM-:B pathway and the proteolytic ubiquitin/proteasome module. A critical metabolic pathway, the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR), was down-regulated in subjects with OSA. Network analysis linked members of these modules together and identified regulatory hubs. Conclusions: OSA is associated with alterations in visceral fat gene expression. Pathway-based network analysis highlighted perturbations in several key pathways whose coordinated interactions may contribute to the metabolic dysregulation observed in this complex disorder. Total RNA from visceral fat of 18 subjects (10 OSA, 8 Control) was hybridized to 18 Affymetrix Genechip Human Gene 1.0 ST microarrays.

Project description:Sleep abnormalities, including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), have been associated with insulin resistance.To determine the relationship between sleep, including OSA, and glucose parameters in a prospectively assembled cohort of chronically sleep-deprived obese subjects.Cross-sectional evaluation of a prospective cohort study.Tertiary Referral Research Clinical Center.Sleep duration and quality assessed by actigraphy, sleep diaries and questionnaires, OSA determined by a portable device; glucose metabolism assessed by oral glucose tolerance test (oGTT), and HbA1c concentrations in 96 obese individuals reporting sleeping less than 6.5 h on a regular basis.Sixty % of subjects had an abnormal respiratory disturbance index (RDI?5) and 44% of these subjects had abnormal oGTT results. Severity of OSA as assessed by RDI score was associated with fasting glucose (R?=?0.325, p?=?0.001) and fasting insulin levels (??=?0.217, p?=?0.033). Subjects with moderate to severe OSA (RDI>15) had higher glucose concentrations at 120 min than those without OSA (RDI<5) (p?=?0.017). Subjects with OSA also had significantly higher concentrations of plasma ACTH (p?=?0.009). Several pro-inflammatory cytokines were higher in subjects with OSA (p<0.050). CRP levels were elevated in this sample, suggesting increased cardiovascular risk.OSA is associated with impaired glucose metabolism in obese, sleep deprived individuals. Since sleep apnea is common and frequently undiagnosed, health care providers should be aware of its occurrence and associated risks.This study was conducted under the NIDDK protocol 06-DK-0036 and is listed in ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00261898.

Project description:BackgroundObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is prevalent in people with obesity and is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes (T2D). The effect of OSA on metabolic function and the precise mechanisms (insulin resistance, β-cell dysfunction, or both) responsible for the increased T2D risk in people with OSA are unknown.Design and methodsWe used a two-stage hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp procedure in conjunction with stable isotopically labeled glucose and palmitate tracer infusions and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose injection and positron emission tomography to quantify multi-organ insulin action and oral and intravenous tolerance tests to evaluate glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in fifteen people with obesity and OSA and thirteen people with obesity without OSA.ResultsOSA was associated with marked insulin resistance of adipose tissue triglyceride lipolysis and glucose uptake into both skeletal muscles and adipose tissue, whereas there was no significant difference between the OSA and control groups in insulin action on endogenous glucose production, basal insulin secretion, and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion during both intravenous and oral glucose tolerance tests.ConclusionsThese data demonstrate that OSA is a key determinant of insulin sensitivity in people with obesity and underscore the importance of taking OSA status into account when evaluating metabolic function in people with obesity. These findings may also have important clinical implications because disease progression and the risk of diabetes-related complications vary by T2D subtype (i.e. severe insulin resistance vs insulin deficiency). People with OSA may benefit most from the targeted treatment of peripheral insulin resistance and early screening for complications associated with peripheral insulin resistance.

Project description:This study examines the relationship between sleep apnea and glucose metabolism. Physiological studies have demonstrated that 5 days of exposure to intermittent hypoxia (similar to what occurs with sleep apnea) leads to significant improvements in glucose tolerance. Therefore, this study investigates the hypothesis that intermittent hypoxia may lead to upregulation of some novel peptide(s) that have a powerful glucose lowering action. Keywords: other

Project description:Oxidative stress (OS) drives cardiometabolic diseases. Intermittent hypoxia consistently increases oxidative stress markers. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients experience intermittent hypoxia and an increased rate of cardiovascular disease, however, the impact of OSA on OS markers is not clear. The objective was to assess relationships between OSA severity and biomarker levels. Patients with suspected OSA referred for a polysomnogram (PSG) provided fasting blood sample. Plasma levels of 8-isoprostane, 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were measured. The relationship between OSA and OS was assessed both before and after controlling for confounders (age, sex, smoking history, history of cardiovascular disease, ethnicity, diabetes, statin usage, body mass index (BMI)). 402 patients were studied (68% male, mean age ± SD = 50.8 ± 11.8 years, apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) = 22.2 ± 21.6 events/hour, BMI = 31.62 ± 6.49 kg/m2). In a multivariable regression, the AHI significantly predicted 8-isoprostane levels (p = 0.0008) together with age and statin usage; AHI was not a predictor of 8-OHdG or SOD. Female sex (p < 0.0001) and no previous history of cardiovascular disease (p = 0.002) were associated with increased antioxidant capacity. Circulating 8-isoprostane levels may be a promising biomarker of the severity of oxidative stress in OSA patients. Prospective studies are needed to determine whether this biomarker is associated with long-term cardiometabolic complications in OSA.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Since sarcopenia is an important risk factor for falls or cardiovascular disease, early detection and prevention of sarcopenia are being increasingly emphasized. Emerging evidence has indicated relationships between sarcopenia, insulin resistance, and inflammation. The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index, a novel surrogate marker of insulin resistance and systemic inflammation, has not yet been shown to be associated with sarcopenia. This study aimed to examine the relationship between the TyG index and muscle mass in Korean adults. METHODS:This study included 15,741 non-diabetic adults over 19?years old using data from the 2008-2011 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Participants were divided into three groups according to tertiles of the TyG index. A low skeletal muscle mass index (LSMI) was defined by the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health Sarcopenia Project criteria. A weighted multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze relationships between TyG index tertiles and LSMI. RESULTS:The ORs (95% CIs) for LSMI in the second and third TyG tertiles, compared to the first tertile, were 1.463 (1.131-1.892) and 1.816 (1.394-2.366), respectively, after adjusting for confounding factors. Higher TyG index values were also associated with increased odds of LSMI in adults under 65?years who did not exercise regularly, who consumed less than 30?g of alcohol per day, who did not currently smoke, and who ate less than 1.5?g of protein/kg/day. CONCLUSION:The TyG index was significantly and positively associated with LSMI in Korean adults.
