Single point insulin sensitivity estimator index and incident impaired fasting glucose in Chinese adults: a retrospective cohort study
To investigate the association between the baseline SPISE index and the risk of incident impaired fasting glucose (IFG) in Chinese adults, highlighting its potential role in diabetes prevention.
Key Findings:
The incidence of IFG was 12.33% during follow-up.
A higher SPISE index was independently associated with a lower risk of IFG.
Each one-unit increase in the SPISE index was linked to a hazard ratio of 0.91 for incident IFG.
Participants in the highest SPISE index quartile (Q4) had a 40% lower risk of developing IFG compared to those in the lowest quartile (Q1).
RCS analysis indicated a linear inverse association between the SPISE index and IFG risk, suggesting significant implications for early intervention.
Interpretation:
A lower SPISE index is an independent risk factor for future incident IFG, suggesting a linear inverse dose-response relationship, with potential applications in clinical practice.
Limitations:
The study is based on a retrospective analysis, which may introduce biases.
The findings are specific to a Chinese adult population and may not be generalizable to other populations.
Potential confounding factors were not fully addressed.
Conclusion:
The SPISE index could be a simple and cost-effective tool for identifying individuals at high risk for IFG, aiding in early identification and targeted prevention strategies for diabetes.
