Cardiometabolic healthy and unhealthy obesity: does vitamin D play a role?
Objective: The aim of this observational study was to clarify the link between vitamin D status and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in people with visceral obesity.
Design and methods: One hundred ninety-six consecutive patients (152 women; mean age 51 ± 13 years) with visceral obesity (mean body weight 103 ± 20 kg, mean waist circumference (WC) 119 ± 13 cm) were enrolled at the Obesity Outpatient Clinic of the University of Insubria in Varese. Anthropometric measurements were recorded. Laboratory tests, including vitamin D (25(OH)D)), fasting blood glucose (FBG), lipid profile, liver and kidney function tests were assessed. Vitamin D status was defined according to the European Society of Endocrinology guidelines, MetS to the 2009 harmonized definition.
Results: An inverse association emerged among 25(OH)D, body mass index (BMI) (P = 0.001) and WC (all P = 0.003). Serum 25(OH)D levels were inversely related to FBG and systolic blood pressure (SBP) (respectively, P = 0.01 and 0.02). Median serum 25(OH)D levels were 13.3 ng/mL (CI 95% 12; 15) in MetS and 16 ng/mL (CI 95% 14; 18) (P = 0.01) in non-MetS patients. Among patients with MetS, lower 25(OH)D concentrations were related to higher risk of hypertension (HT) (odds ratio (OR) 1.7, CI 95%, 0.7;4) and hyperglycemia (IFG)/type 2 diabetes (OR 5.5, CI 95% 2; 14).
Conclusion: Vitamin D status and MetS are inversely correlated in visceral obesity, particularly with regard to glucose homeostasis and BP. More extensive studies are required to investigate the potential for causality
COMPOSIZIONE CORPOREA E DINAMOMETRIA IN PAZIENTI AFFETTE DA CARCINOMA MAMMARIO AFFERENTI ALL\u2019AMBULATORIO DI CONSULENZA NUTRIZIONALE DELLA S.S.D. BREAST UNIT \u2013 ASST SETTE LAGHI, VARESE
Nonostante la diffusione della cultura della prevenzione e l\u2019attivit\ue0
di diagnosi precoce, il cancro colpisce ancora un gran numero di
persone e i progressi fatti nella cura, pur avendo allungato la sopravvivenza
dei pazienti, non hanno risolto i gravi problemi legati
alla qualit\ue0 di vita e ai bisogni degli ammalati. La prevenzione terziaria
del cancro della mammella si basa sull\u2019individuazione e
sulla correzione di fattori di rischio modificabili e ha come obiettivo
una migliore qualit\ue0 di vita, attraverso l\u2019attenuazione di segni e
sintomi secondari alla presenza del tumore. Molti studi hanno riscontrato
che la dieta di tipo mediterraneo, l\u2019attivit\ue0 fisica e il mantenimento
di un peso corporeo salutare possono contribuire a ridurre
il rischio di recidiva. Scopo del nostro lavoro \ue8 stato quello di
osservare lo stato nutrizionale di donne affette da carcinoma mammario
afferenti all\u2019ambulatorio di consulenza nutrizionale del Centro
di Ricerca in Senologia
