PG - 2266-2273 LID - 10.1007/s12011-022-03357-6 [doi] AB - We aimed to explore whether an elevated blood lead level (BLL) is associated with visceral adipose dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Four thousand one hundred and fourteen diabetic participants were enrolled from seven communities in Shanghai in 2018 in the cross-sectional METAL study. BLL was measured by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry. Visceral adiposity index (VAI) and lipid accumulation product (LAP)were calculated by simple anthropometric and biochemical parameters. We found that medians (IQR) of BLL were 26.0 mug/L (18.0-37.0) for men and 25.0 mug/L (18.0-35.0) for women, respectively. In men, each doubling of BLL was associated with a 2.0% higher VAI (95% CI, 0.6 to 3.5%) and 1.8% higher LAP (95% CI, 0.2 to 3.3%) after full adjustment. Using the lowest BLL quartile as the referent group, significant positive trends were observed for BLL with VAI and LAP. In women, each doubling of BLL was associated with a 1.9% higher LAP (95% CI, 0.6 to 3.1%). Additionally, there was a marginally significant positive association between BLL and VAI, either using log2-transformed concentrations as continuous variables or categorized in quartiles. In conclusion, lead exposure is associated with visceral adipose dysfunction in patients with T2DM. Further prospective studies are warranted to confirm our findings. CI - (c) 2022.
