“…Secondly, when classifying subjects by their TBF% diagnosis, it was clear that CSD consumption is significantly higher in men with a high TBF% diagnosis; also, when the classification was done with the quartiles of CSD consumption, those men with the highest consumption present a significantly higher TBF%, and finally the regression model revealed that CSD consumption was predictive of TBF%. An increase in TBF% per se has been associated with metabolic abnormalities [44,45], for which we can state that a high consumption of CSDs represents a metabolic risk factor, especially because the CSD consumption predicts the TBF% in those young men that participate in our study, and this result is more alarming if we consider that these measures are likely to increase when the subjects reach their 40s [46,47].…”

A high consumption of soft drinks (SDs) has been linked with the development of anthropometric and metabolic alterations. We evaluate the association between SD consumption and some anthropometric and metabolic variables. This study is an observational study, using a sample of 394 university students, of which 158 were men (40.1%) and 238 women (59.9%), between 18 and 30 years. An SD intake questionnaire provided the consumption of different SDs. The participants’ weight, height, and waist and hip circumferences were collected. Metabolic biomarkers were analyzed. The average intake of caloric SDs (CSDs) was 1193.6 ± 1534.8 mL/week and 84.5 ± 115.02 mL/week for non-caloric SDs (NCSDs). Sex differences were found in the amount of SD consumption and these statistical differences were driven by those men subjects with a high total body fat percentage (TBF%). In men, correlations were found between the intake of CSDs and the body mass index, waist and hip circumferences, TBF%, and visceral fat percentage. In woman, a correlation was found with glucose and triglycerides. The prediction model revealed that the intake of CSDs predicts TBF% and low-density lipoprotein only in men. A high amount of CSD consumption in men was associated with a high TBF%, and this may be predictive of future development of metabolic abnormalities.

Cardiometabolic risk factors in adults with normal weight obesity: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Summary Normal weight obesity (NWO) is a new emerging phenotype of obesity, defined as a normal body mass index with a high body fat percentage. While several studies have described the impact of NWO on cardiometabolic risk factors, the association between them remains uncertain. This meta‐analysis systematically evaluated cardiometabolic risk factors in adults with NWO compared to adults with normal weight lean (NWL). A systematic literature search was performed from the inception until September 21, 2021 in order to comprehensively search for all observational studies that had three important variables, including adults (age ≥18 years old), NWO and cardiometabolic risk factors including metabolic syndrome, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidaemia or all laboratory findings related to cardiometabolic risk factors. Twenty‐four cross‐sectional studies with a total of 75 201 subjects are included in the qualitative and quantitative analysis. Overall, older age and female sex are more likely in NWO population. Compared to NWL, NWO is significantly associated with cardiometabolic risk factors, including metabolic syndrome (OR = 2.24 [1.74, 2.89]; p < .001; I2 = 76%, Pheterogeneity < 0.001), hypertension (OR = 1.60[1.36, 1.89]; p < .001; I2 = 76%, Pheterogeneity < 0.001), diabetes mellitus (OR = 1.72[1.54, 1.92]; p < .001; I2 = 47%, Pheterogeneity < 0.001), dyslipidaemia (OR = 1.50 [1.03, 2.18]; p = .03; I2 = 94%, Pheterogeneity < 0.001) and other laboratory findings, except for C‐reactive protein in both sexes group; and adiponectin levels in female group. Our meta‐analysis showed that NWO was associated with cardiometabolic risk factors. Thus, the traditional definition of obesity using the BMI criteria should be challenged, as those with NWO might still be exposed to a heightened risk of cardiometabolic disorders. Nonetheless, further prospective cohort studies are needed better to understand this syndrome.

“…In a Chinese hypertension registry study, BFP was found to be positively associated with an increased risk of HUA among hypertensive patients ( 35 ). BFP was also found to be associated with cardiometabolic disorders in a variety of populations ( 36 , 37 ). Excess body fat increases morbidity, with excess visceral fat being an important factor that triggers pathologies among cardiometabolic risk factors ( 38 – 41 ).…”

Alcohol intake and excess adiposity are associated with serum uric acid (SUA), but their interaction effect on hyperuricemia (HUA) remains unclear. Using data from the China National Health Survey (CNHS) (2012–2017), we analyzed the additive interaction of beer, spirits intake, excess adiposity [measured by body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage (BFP), and visceral fat index (VFI)] with HUA among male participants aged 20–80 from mainland China. The relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI), the attributable proportion due to interaction (AP), and the synergy index (SI) were calculated to assess the interaction effect on the additive scale. Both RERI and AP larger than 0 and SI larger than 1 indicate a positive additive interaction. Among 12,592 male participants, the mean SUA level was 367.1 ± 85.5 μmol/L and 24.1% were HUA. Overweight/obese men who were presently drinking spirits had an odds ratio (OR) of 3.20 (95%CI: 2.71–3.79) than the never drink group, with RERI, AP, and SI of 0.45 (95%CI: 0.08–0.81), 0.14 (95%CI: 0.03–0.25), and 1.25 (95%CI: 1.02–1.54), respectively. However, although combined exposures on beer intake and excess adiposity had the highest OR compared with no beer intake and nonobese participants, there was no additive interaction, with RERI, AP, and SI in the overweight/obesity and the beer intake group of 0.58 (−0.41–1.57), 0.17 (−0.08–0.41), and 1.30 (0.85–1.97), respectively. Other excess adiposity indexes revealed similar estimates. Our findings suggested that the exposures of both excess adiposity and alcohol drink could result in an additive interaction effect on HUA: the combined risk of excess adiposity with spirits intake but not with beer was greater than the sum of the effects among Chinese male adults.
