Different cutoffs of hypertension, risk of incident diabetes and progression of insulin resistance: A prospective cohort study.
2021
Background/Purpose Hypertension is a risk factor of incident diabetes. In 2017, the ACC/AHA updated the definition of hypertension to above 130/80 mmHg, while the 2018 ESC/ESH guideline and the JNC7 criteria remained the cutoff of 140/90 mmHg. This study was aimed to investigate how different cutoffs of hypertension affect the association of hypertension to incident diabetes and the progression of insulin resistance. Methods A total of 1177 subjects without diabetes at baseline were followed for 4.5 years. Diabetes was diagnosed by the results of oral glucose tolerance tests and hemoglobin A1c, or if anti-diabetic agents were used. Results Hypertension by both criteria was associated with incident diabetes. Change of HOMA2-IR every 5 years (ΔHOMA2-IR/5 yr) was higher in subjects with hypertension than those without (adjusted p = 0.044). Subjects with treated hypertension had the highest risk of diabetes (HR 2.98, p Conclusion Hypertension by both criteria is associated with incident diabetes and accelerated progression of insulin resistance, and the associations are attenuated by the 2017 ACC/AHA criteria.
