Indicadores do perfil lipídico plasmático relacionados à resistência à insulina

Abstract: ResumoObjetivOs. Investigar a habilidade de indicadores bioquímicos do perfil lipídico plasmático em identificar resistência à insulina (RI), avaliada pelo índice HOMA-IR (Homeostasis Model Assessment -Insulin Resistance). MétOdOs. foram avaliados 138 homens saudáveis (20-59 anos). Analisaram-se os seguintes indicadores bioquímicos do perfil lipídico: triglicérides (TG), colesterol total (CT), HDL-C, LDL-C, e as relações CT/HDL-C e TG/HDL-C. Considerou-se o percentil 75 como ponto de corte para o índice HOMA-I… Show more

“…The article from Vasques and co-workers 4 corroborates recent evidence, showing that high triglyceride levels and low HDL levels, or more specifically, the triglycerides/HDL ratio can be useful to predict insulin resistance calculated by means of the HOMA-IR index. These observations of great interest were obtained from a sample of the Brazilian population, which is very heterogeneous in terms of ethnicity, as emphasized by the authors.…”

“…Discute-se que um dos principais mecanismos envolvidos nessa associação seja o desenvolvimento de resistência à insulina, uma alteração metabólica caracterizada por resposta anormal dos tecidos periféricos à ação da insulina circulante. A resistência à insulina tem demonstrado associação com o excesso de peso, bem como tem sido considerada base fisiopatológica entre as diversas alterações presentes na síndrome metabólica, entre elas, a dislipidemia 29 .…”

“…It is believed that the greater the ratio, the greater the insulin resistance of the patient. This ratio provides an estimate of the sensitivity to insulin and is as accurate as the criteria for the metabolic syndrome defined by the ATP III, the concentration of plasma insulin when fasting, or other estimates that measure the amount of glucose and the plasma concentration of insulin in order to evaluate its action [4,6,7,16]. The TG/HDL ratio indicates the relative size of the LDL cholesterol particles and their resulting atherogenic potential.…”

“…This ratio estimates the resistance to insulin and is as accurate in terms of the clinical criteria for metabolic syndrome as specified by the Adult Treatment Panel III [5], the measure of the fasting concentration of plasma insulin, or other estimates that measure glycemia and the plasma concentration of insulin in order to identify individuals with insulin resistance [4,6,7]. In addition, the TG/HDL ratio has proved to be an independent factor that was correlated with the risk of cardiovascular events [4].…”
