“…This is consistent with the results of previous studies on general populations [4,18]. There was a near linear association between the number of diagnostic criteria for the MS and mortality from CVD [19].…”

“…As cytokines are potent inducers of WBC differentiation [27], it is possible that an activated cytokine system might contribute to both increased WBC count and insulin resistance. Since activated WBC can produce cytokines, it is also possible that activation of the immune system could increase WBC count and therefore cytokine production with decreased insulin sensitivity [18]. In our study, total WBC count was associated with postprandial 2 h glucose concentration, however, it was not associated with fasting glucose concentration.…”

“…Third, this study modified the ATP-criteria for MS, in which waist circumference was replaced by BMI. In 2000, the official diagnostic criteria for obesity included BMI, and similar modifications have been made in other reports 26,27) ; therefore, we also believe this modified ATP-criterion still defined MS well. In conclusion, both MS and IFG can effectively predict NOD among community-living older Taiwanese in 5-year follow-up.…”

NOD was defined as those who were DM-free in 2000 and became DM in 2005 (including plasma glucose re-testing and current antihyperglycemic agent usage).…”

“…Um estudo de base populacional em Taiwan descobriu que a presença de um maior número de glóbulos brancos (GB) e de glóbulos vermelhos (GV) aumentou o odds ratio (OR) para o agrupamento de fatores de risco cardiometabólicos 5 . Sugere-se que essa mesma associação ocorra também entre a contagem de plaquetas e GB e o agrupamento de fatores de risco cardiometabólicos 6 .…”

Objective: To assess the relationship of air pollution and hematologic parameters in a population-based sample of children and adolescents. Methods:This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2009-2010 among school students randomly selected from different areas of Isfahan city, the second largest and most air-polluted city in Iran. The association of air pollutants levels with hemoglobin, platelets, red and white blood cells (RBC and WBC, respectively) levels was determined by multiple linear and logistic regression analyses, after adjustment for age, gender, anthropometric measures, meteorological factors, and dietary and physical activity habits. Results:The study participants consisted of 134 students (48.5% boys) with a mean age of 13.10±2.21 years. While the mean Pollutant Standards Index (PSI) was at moderate level, the mean particulate matter ≤ 10 µm (PM 10 ) was more than twice the normal level. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that PSI and most air pollutants, notably PM 10 , had significant negative relationship with hemoglobin and RBC count, and positive significant relationship with WBC and platelet counts. The odds ratio of elevated WBC increased as the quartiles of PM 10 , ozone and PSI increased, however these associations reached to significant level only in the highest quartile of PM 10 and PSI. The corresponding figures for hemoglobin and RBC were in opposite direction. Conclusions:The association of air pollutants with hematologic parameters and a possible pro-inflammatory state is highlighted. The presence of these associations with PM 10 in a moderate mean PSI level underscores the necessity to re-examine environmental health policies for the pediatric age group.J Pediatr (Rio J). 2011;87(4): Air pollution, cell blood count, atherosclerosis, inflammation, children, prevention. ResumoObjetivo: Avaliar a relação entre poluição atmosférica e parâ-metros hematológicos em uma amostra populacional de crianças e adolescentes. Métodos:Este estudo transversal foi realizado em 2009-2010 com estudantes escolhidos aleatoriamente de diversas áreas de Isfahan, a segunda maior e mais poluída cidade iraniana. A associação entre os níveis de poluentes do ar e os de hemoglobina, plaquetas, glóbulos brancos (GB) e glóbulos vermelhos (GV) foi determinada pelas análises linear múltipla e de regressão logística ajustadas para idade, sexo, medidas antropométricas, fatores meteorológicos, e hábitos alimentares e de atividade física. Resultados:Participaram do estudo 134 estudantes (48,5% meninos), com idade média de 13,10±2,21 anos. Com níveis moderados de Pollutant Standards Index (PSI), a média de material particulado (particulate matter) ≤ 10 µm (PM 10 ) foi mais do que o dobro do normal. A análise de regressão linear demonstrou que o PSI e a maioria dos poluentes atmosféricos, especialmente PM 10 , estiveram negativamente relacionados com a contagem de hemoglobina e GV e positivamente relacionados com a contagem de GB e plaquetas. O odds ratio de uma elevação nos GB aumentou conforme os quart...
