The Associations between Serum Zinc

The Associations between Serum Zinc Levels and Metabolic Syndrome in the Korean Population: Findings from the 2010 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
Abstract
The prevalence of metabolic syndrome has been increasing rapidly worldwide. The functions of zinc may have a potential association with metabolic syndrome, but such associations have not been investigated extensively. Therefore, we examined the relationship between serum zinc levels and metabolic syndrome or metabolic risk factors among South Korean adults$20 years of age. The analysis used data from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, a cross-sectional survey of Korean civilians, conducted from January to December 2010. A total of 1,926 participants were analyzed in this study. Serum zinc levels in men were negatively associated with elevated fasting glucose (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.58; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.36–0.93) and positively associated with elevated triglycerides (aOR, 1.47; 95% CI, 1.01–2.13). A difference in serum zinc levels was detected in women, depending on the number of metabolic syndrome components (p = 0.002). Furthermore, serum zinc levels showed a decreasing trend with increasing numbers of metabolic syndrome components in women with metabolic syndrome. These findings suggest that serum zinc levels might be associated with metabolic syndrome or metabolic risk factors. Further gender-specific studies are needed to evaluate the effect of dietary or supplemental zinc intake on metabolic syndrome

Asosiasi antara tingkat seng Serum dan sindrom metabolik dalam populasi Korea: temuan dari survei pemeriksaan gizi dan Kesehatan Nasional Korea 2010AbstrakPrevalensi sindrom metabolik telah meningkat pesat di seluruh dunia. Fungsi seng mungkin memiliki sebuah asosiasi yang potensial dengan sindrom metabolik, tetapi Asosiasi seperti tidak diinvestigasi secara ekstensif. Oleh karena itu, kita akan meneliti hubungan antara tingkat seng serum dan sindrom metabolik, atau faktor-faktor risiko metabolik antara tahun $20 orang dewasa Korea Selatan. Analisis menggunakan data dari Kesehatan Nasional Korea dan Survey pemeriksaan gizi, survei penampang Korea warga sipil, dilaksanakan dari Januari sampai Desember 2010. Total peserta 1,926 dianalisis dalam penelitian ini. Kadar serum seng pada pria negatif dikaitkan dengan peningkatan glukosa puasa (kemungkinan disesuaikan rasio [aOR], 0,58; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0,36-0.93) dan positif yang terkait dengan trigliserida tinggi (aOR, 1.47; 95% CI, 1,01-2.13). Perbedaan dalam tingkat seng serum terdeteksi pada wanita, tergantung pada jumlah komponen sindrom metabolik (p = 0,002). Selain itu, kadar serum seng menunjukkan tren menurun dengan peningkatan jumlah komponen sindrom metabolik pada wanita dengan sindrom metabolik. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa kadar serum seng mungkin terkait dengan sindrom metabolik atau metabolik faktor risiko. Lebih spesifik jender studi yang diperlukan untuk mengevaluasi efek dari asupan makanan atau suplemen Seng di sindrom metabolik
