MetS was identified according to the criteria of International Diabetes Federation guidelines. Poisson regression models were used to estimate the association between serum TSH and the prevalence of MetS and its components before and after adjustment for potential confounding factors. The reported association was measured using the prevalence ratio (PR) with its respective 95% confidence interval (95% CI).Results: The prevalence of MetS in euthyroid population across TSH quartiles (Q1-4) was 38.9%, 44.6%, 41.0%, and 47.7%, respectively, in men (P = 0.045), and 47.7%, 46.6%, 46.9%, and 54.6%, respectively, in women (P = 0.032). Compared with the reference group TSH-Q1, the prevalence of MetS was higher among TSH-Q4 group both in men (PR = 1.27; 95% CI: 1.09, 1.48, P = 0.002) and women (PR = 1.21; 95% CI: 1.07, 1.37, P = 0.003) even after adjustment for age, lifestyle factors, serum levels of free triiodothyronine (FT3), and free thyroxine (FT4). Most of the components of MetS were common in higher serum TSH levels within the normal range.Conclusion: The prevalence of MetS and most of its components increased in the higher TSH group in euthyroid Chinese population.Keywords: thyroid hormones, obesity, hypertension, hyperglycemia |
