Abstract EN
Aims.
To investigate the association of C-reactive protein (CRP) and gamma glutamyltransferase (GGT) concentrations with newly diagnosed diabetes defined by either glucose or HbA1c criteria in Chinese adults.
Methods.
A population-based cross-sectional study was conducted in 2006.
Data from 1167 men and 1607 women aged 35–74 years were analyzed.
Diabetes was defined according to either glucose or HbA1c criteria alone.
Results.
Compared with nondiabetes, multivariate-adjusted OR (95%CI) was 1.13 (0.90,1.42) in men and 1.21 (1.00,1.45) in women for CRP and 1.42 (1.18,1.72) and 1.57 (1.31,1.87) for GGT, respectively.
Neither CRP nor GGT was associated with the presence of diabetes defined by the HbA1c criterion.
Conclusions.
The effect of elevated CRP on diabetes defined by the glucose criterion was mediated through obesity, but elevated GGT was an independent risk factor for diabetes in this Chinese population.
None of the two was, however, associated with the elevated HbA1c concentrations.
