Abstract: ObjectiveTo analyze the relationship bewteen adult insulin resistance(IR)and multiple meatbolic disorders among adults in Yanbian area.MethodsA total of 1 235 adults were selected,and the an thropometric and biochemical indexes were measured.The fasting in sulin(FIns)was detected with radio immunoassay,and human IR was estimated with homeostasis model assessment(HOMA)method.ResultsThe proportion of IR was 25.0%.The prevalence of hypertension,dyslipidemia,hyperglycemia,overall obesity,and abdominal obesity increased a long with the increase of IR level (P<0.01)and the ratios of the metabolic disorders in the subjects with IR was 49.5%,32.4%,30.4%,68.0%,and 82 5%,respectively.Among the adults with one kind of abnormal metabolism,18.8% were IR and the rate of IR was 32.7% among the adults with two kinds of abnormal metabolism,42.6% among those with three,and 68.2% with four kinds of abnormal metabolism,respectively.IR was closely related with hyperg lycemia,hypertension,dyslipidemia,overall obesity,and abdominal obesity in the adults.ConclusionThe insulin resistace with common dysbolism is ubiquity,and the ratio of different metabolic disorders and its different compositions with IR are different.IR is closely related with hyperglycemia,hypertension,dyslipidemia,overall boesity,and abdominal boesity.
