AbstractObjectivesThe combination of sleep duration, television (TV) time and body mass index (BMI) may be related to the alteration of cardiometabolic risk. However, there are few studies that use these variables grouped, and showing the moderating role of age. This study aimed to verify if the combination of sleep duration, TV time and BMI is associated with cardiometabolic risk and the moderating role of age in this relationship in youth.MethodsCross-sectional study conducted with 1411 adolescents (611 male), aged 10–17 years. Sleep duration, TV time and BMI were assessed and grouped into eight categories. Cardiometabolic risk was assessed by a continuous metabolic risk score, including the following variables: low HDL-cholesterol, elevated triglycerides, dysglycemia, high systolic blood pressure, high waist circumference and low cardiorespiratory fitness. Generalized linear models were used to test moderation of age in the relationship between the eight categories of sleep duration/television time/BMI with cardiometabolic risk.ResultsCardiometabolic risk factor showed association with all overweight or obesity independent of sleep time and TV time. Age moderated the relationship between sleep duration/television time/BMI with cardiometabolic risk. This association was stronger in younger adolescents (11 and 13 years), indicating that individuals with inadequate sleep, prolonged TV time and overweight/obesity present higher cardiometabolic risk values when compared to 15-year-old adolescents.ConclusionOverweight/obesity, independently of sleep duration and TV time, is the main risk factor for cardiometabolic disorders in adolescence. When moderated by age, younger adolescents that presented the combination of risk factors had higher cardiometabolic risk.

The Relationship

Abstract Background: The relationship of spicy food intake with hyperuricemia remains unknow. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between spicy food intake and hyperuricemia, and whether this association was mediated by body mass index (BMI) in Chinese rural population.Methods: A total of 38, 027 adults, aged 18–79 years, were from the Henan Rural Cohort Study. Information on spicy food intake was obtained using a validated questionnaire survey. Multivariable logistic regression model was used to estimate the association between spicy food intake and hyperuricemia, multiple linear regression model was performed to estimate the relationships between spicy food intake, BMI and serum urate level. BMI was used as a mediator to estimate the mediation effect. Results: After adjusting for potential confounders, compared with no spicy food flavor, the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of mild, middle, and heavy flavor for hyperuricemia was 1.09 (1.00-1.19), 1.10 (0.97-1.24), and 1.21 (1.10-1.46), respectively (Ptrend=0.017). Similarly, compared with no spicy food intake, the adjusted OR (95% CI) of 1 or 2days/week, 3-5 days/week, and 6 or 7 days/week were 1.15 (1.01-1.31), 1.14 (1.01-1.30) and 1.15 (1.05-1.26), respectively (Ptrend=0.007). Associations were substantially attenuated after additional control for BMI. Furthermore, mediation analysis showed that BMI play a full mediating role in the relationship between spicy food intake and hyperuricemia.Conclusion: Spicy food flavor and intake frequency is positively related with hyperuricemia in Chinese rural population. BMI may play a full mediating role in the relationship.

The Relationship

To evaluate the role of TNF-α in the pathogenesis of hyperandrogenism, we have evaluated the serum TNF-α levels, as well as several polymorphisms in the promoter region of the TNF-α gene, in a group of 60 hyperandrogenic patients and 27 healthy controls matched for body mass index. Hyperandrogenic patients presented with mildly increased serum TNF-α levels as compared with controls (mean[median] ± sd: 7.2[7.0] ± 3.3 pg/ml vs. 5.6[4.4] ± 4.0 pg/ml, P < 0.02). Although no differences in body mass index and insulin resistance indexes were observed between patients and controls, when subjects were classified by body weight, serum TNF-α was increased only in lean patients as compared with lean controls, but this difference was not statistically significant when comparing obese patients with obese controls. The TNF-α gene polymorphisms studied here (−1196C/T, −1125G/C,− 1031T/C, −863C/A, −857C/T, −316G/A, −308G/A, −238G/A, and− 163G/A) were equally distributed in hyperandrogenic patients and controls. However, carriers of the −308A variant presented with increased basal and leuprolide-stimulated serum androgens and 17-hydroxyprogesterone levels when considering patients and controls as a group. No differences were observed in serum TNF-α levels, body mass index, and insulin resistance indexes, depending on the presence or absence of these variants. In conclusion, our present results suggest that the TNF-α system might contribute to the pathogenesis of hyperandrogenism, independent of obesity and insulin resistance. However, elucidation of the precise mechanisms underlying the relationship between the TNF-α system and androgen excess is needed before considering TNF-α as a significant contributing factor to the development of hyperandrogenism.
