@entity1 @entity1144 @entity1007 @entity165
BACKGROUND: The main aim of this study is to evaluate the association between serum @entity165 level and @entity1144 in adult @entity1 and @entity1 in the north of Iran. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This cross-sectional and analytical study was conducted on the 1956 subjects (990 @entity1 and 966 @entity1 ) between 25 and 65 years old chosen by cluster sampling. Plasma @entity165 was measured in the morning after a 12 h fast and determined by auto-analyzer. @entity1007 ( @entity1007 ) was defined by a total plasma @entity165 level over 200 mg/dl. Waist circumference >= 102 cm and >= 88 cm in @entity1 and @entity1 were defined as @entity1144 . SPSS 16.0 software was used for statistical analysis and P < 0.05 considered as statistical significance. RESULTS: Averagely, the mean of age was 44.2 years and mean    standard deviation of plasma total @entity165 level was 203    11.3 mg/dl. The @entity1007 was seen in 50.8% of subjects with a more common in @entity1 than in @entity1 . Compared with normal subjects, in @entity1144 @entity1 , the odds ratio (OR) of @entity1007 was (OR = 4.208 [95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.939-9.130]) and (OR = 3.956 [95% CI: 1.821-8.592]) in @entity1 aged 25-35 and 35-45 years, respectively. In @entity1 aged 25-35 years, it was (OR = 3.444 [95% CI: 1.959-6.056]) in @entity1144 compared with normal subjects. CONCLUSION: @entity1007 was revealed as a major health problem among adults, and it was associated with @entity1144 especially in the early middle-age in the north of Iran. This association was not significant in @entity1 and @entity1 after the age of 45 and 35, respectively.
