Testosterone concentrations in young healthy us versus Chinese men
BACKGROUND: Previous small studies examining differences in testosterone concentrations by ethnicity found mixed results for Caucasians and Chinese men, which might be confounded by age differences and living standards. The aim of the present study is to examine the differences in total, free, and bioavailable testosterone concentrations between healthy young men from the United States (US) and from the most economically developed part of China, …
Genetically predicted 17β-estradiol and systemic inflammation in women
BACKGROUND: Many chronic diseases are characterised by low-grade systemic inflammation. Oestrogens may promote immune response consistent with sex-specific patterns of diseases. In vitro culture and animal experiments suggest oestrogens are anti-inflammatory and might thereby protect against low-grade systemic inflammation. Evidence from epidemiological studies is limited. Using a Mendelian randomisation analysis with a separate-sample instrument…
Intergenerational influences on diabetes in a developing population
OBJECTIVES: Intergenerational "mismatch" and/or growth conditions may be relevant to the epidemic of diabetes in developing populations. In a rapidly developing southern Chinese population, we tested whether maternal environment, proxied by maternal literacy, or family socio-economic position (SEP), proxied by paternal literacy, were associated with fasting glucose and diabetes. To assess if intergenerational mismatch contributed, we tested wheth…
P2-133 Muscle mass is associated with diabetes in a developing population
Introduction Asian populations tend to be more susceptible to type 2 diabetes. In Asians low muscle-mass may also be a contributory factor. In a rapidly developing southern Chinese population, we examined whether skeletal muscle-mass, proxied by serum creatinine, was associated with diabetes or adiposity. Methods In 9768 older (≥50 years) adults from the Guangzhou Biobank Cohort Study (phase 1) examined in 2003–2004, we used multivariable logisti…
P2-132 Intergenerational influences on diabetes in a developing population
Introduction Intergenerational “mismatch” has been suggested as being relevant to the emergent epidemic of diabetes in developing populations. Conversely, constrained growth conditions over generations may also increase susceptibility to diabetes. In a rapidly developing southern Chinese population, we tested whether maternal environment, proxied by maternal literacy, or family socio-economic position (SEP), proxied by paternal literacy, were ass…
