Abstract

OBJECTIVE—Insulin resistance (IR) and the metabolic syndrome (MS) are associated with type 2 diabetes and adverse cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor profiles. Whether IR and MS predict CVD independently of diabetes and other CVD risk factors is not known. This study examines whether IR and/or presence of MS are independently associated with CVD in nondiabetic American Indians (AI). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS—We examined 2,283 nondiabetic AI who were free of CVD at the baseline examination of the Strong Heart Study (SHS). CVD risk factors were measured, IR was quantified using the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA), and MS as defined by the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel (ATP III) was assessed for each participant. Incident CVD and diabetes were ascertained during follow-up. RESULTS—MS was present in 798 individuals (35%), and 181 participants (7.9%) developed CVD over 7.6 ± 1.8 years of follow-up. Age, BMI, waist circumference, and triglyceride levels increased and HDL cholesterol decreased across tertiles of HOMA-IR. Risk of diabetes increased as a function of baseline HOMA-IR (6.3, 14.6, and 30.1%; P < 0.001) and MS (12.8 vs. 24.5%). In Cox models adjusted for CVD risk factors, risk of CVD did not increase either as a function of baseline HOMA-IR or MS, but individual CVD risk factors predicted subsequent CVD. CONCLUSIONS—Among nondiabetic AI in the SHS, HOMA-IR and MS both predict diabetes, but neither predicts CVD independently of other established CVD risk factors.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
