Objective.
Insulin resistance (IR) is a pathological condition present not only in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), but also in community-dwelling population without DM.
Both central arterial stiffness and IR are closely correlated with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
The relationship between central arterial stiffness and IR has not been described in Chinese community-dwelling population without DM.
The current analysis was designed to investigate the relationship between central arterial stiffness and IR in Chinese community-dwelling population without DM.
Methods.
There were 1150 participants fully assessed for not only homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) but also carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV).
Results.
Median age was 39 (18–80) years, and 69.7% were men.
Bivariate correlation analysis showed that cfPWV was significantly related to HOMA-IR (P<0.05).
Logistic regression analysis indicated that cfPWV was independently associated with HOMA-IR (P<0.05).
Conclusions.
This community-based analysis testified that the relationship between central arterial stiffness and IR was evident as early as during nondiabetic stage.
Early interventions in Chinese community-dwelling population without DM to improve the IR are also important in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.
