Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Both metabolic syndrome (MetS) and N-amino terminal fragment of the prohormone B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) confer increased risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). We assessed if NT-proBNP levels were greater in people with uncomplicated MetS, who had neither CVD/chronic kidney disease (CKD) nor diabetes, as compared with subjects who met none of the defining criteria of the MetS. METHODS:A case-cohort study from the non-diabetic population-based Casale Monferrato study was performed, after exclusion of all subjects with established CVD, CKD [estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min/1.73 m(2)], and CRP values ≥3 mg/L. Cases (n = 161) with MetS were compared with all subjects within the cohort (n = 124) who were completely free of any component of the MetS. Serum NT-proBNP was centrally measured by immunoenzymatic assay. RESULTS:NT-proBNP levels were significantly higher in cases than in control subjects [35.4 (15.5-98.2) vs 24.4 (11.7-49.6) pg/mL, p = 0.014]. In logistic regression analysis, compared with NT-proBNP values in the lower quartiles (≤49.64 pg/mL), higher values conferred odds ratio 4.17 (1.30-13.44) of having the MetS, independently of age, sex, microalbuminuria, CRP, eGFR, and central obesity. This association was evident even after the exclusion of hypertensive subjects. Further adjustment for log-HOMA and diastolic blood pressure did not modify the strength of the association, while central obesity was a negative confounder. CONCLUSIONS:Compared with people without any component of the MetS, those with uncomplicated MetS, who had neither CVD/CKD nor diabetes, had increased NT-proBNP values, even if they were normotensive and although absolute values were still in the low range. The insulin resistance state did not mediate this association, while central obesity was a negative confounder.
