The role of triglycerides and HDL in predicting insulin resistance in diabetic and non-diabetic young adults in Lephalale, Limpopo Province, South Africa
Insulin resistance (IR) drives early cardiometabolic risk in low-resource settings, yet gold-standard measures are impractical. We assessed routine lipids, triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and the TG/HDL-C ratio, as predictors of IR in 781 adults aged 20–29 years from the Ellisras Longitudinal Study (Lephalale, Limpopo). IR was defined as HOMA-IR ≥2.5. Participants were 51.8% female and 39.1% diabetic. Diabetic pa…
A Longitudinal Investigation on the Effects of Sodium and Potassium Intake on the Development of Hypertension and Abdominal Obesity from Childhood to Young Adulthood amongst Ellisras Rural Population,…
In our study, we observed that an increase in the Na/K ratio is a predictor of HT and abdominal obesity over time compared to Na and K alone. However, more studies are required to further prove this
Investigation of the Seasonal Variation in Fat Patterning of Ellisras Rural Children and Adolescents, in the Limpopo Province, South Africa
An increase in childhood obesity has become a global concern since childhood obesity often leads to adulthood obesity. This study aimed to investigate whether there is seasonal variation in fat patterning, and whether fat patterning is associated with seasons among the Ellisras population aged 5-15 years. A total of 1986 children and adolescents (1034 boys and 952 girls) aged 5-15 enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Skinfold measurements were…
Assessing the Association of Sodium, Potassium Intake and Sodium/Potassium Ratio on Blood Pressure and Central Adiposity Measurements amongst Ellisras Undernourished, Rural Children Aged 5–13 Years
Although our study found a notable low average intake of sodium and potassium as compared to the recommended values. There was positive correlation found between sodium intake and BP. Furthermore, a positive correlation of sodium intake and sodium/potassium ratio with WHtR was also found
Obesity Indices to Use for Identifying Metabolic Syndrome among Rural Adults in South Africa
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a cluster of metabolic conditions that aggravate the likelihood of cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study was aimed to identify the best obesity index to determine MetS. This was a cross-sectional study and part of Ellisras Longitudinal Study where 593 (289 males and 304 females) adults aged 22-30 years took part. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to test the single-factor models of MetS …
The Relationship between Binge Drinking and Metabolic Syndrome Components amongst Young Adults Aged 21 to 31 Years
Binge drinking was significantly associated with lower levels of HDL-C. Future studies should investigate the relationship between alcohol abuse and the components of incident MetS in this population
The Use of Alcohol and Knowledge of Cardiovascular Diseases among Ellisras Rural Children Aged 14–22 Years
The harm alcohol abuse does to physical and mental health is well established. The perception of cardiovascular disease risk factors and alcohol use requires attention. This study aims to investigate the association between alcohol usage and knowledge of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) risk factors among Ellisras rural adolescents and young adults aged 14-22 years. In this cross-sectional study a total of 1409 subjects (736 boys and 673 girls), ag…
The Relationship between Physical Activity and Plasma Glucose Level amongst Ellisras Rural Young Adult Males and Females
Unhealthy lifestyle characteristics such as low physical activity (PA) and high plasma glucose levels (PGLs) may lead to the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adulthood. The aim of this study was to investigate (i) the level of physical activity; (ii) the prevalence of pre-diabetes and (iii) the relationship between PA and plasma glucose level in a rural Ellisras adult population aged 18 to 28 years. A total of 713 young adults (349 male…
