Abstract

Aim To determine the progression rates from metabolically healthy or unhealthy normal weight, overweight and obese phenotype to type 2 diabetes (T2D) in a non-diabetic high risk population in Isfahan, Iran. Methods T2D incidence during a mean (SD) follow-up of 10.1 (2.3) years was examined among 1,982 non-diabetic first-degree relatives (FDR) of patients with T2D 30–70 years old. Participants were divided into 6 groups based on body mass index and metabolic syndrome component, except waist circumference, at baseline: metabolically healthy normal weight (MHNW), metabolically healthy overweight (MHOW), metabolically healthy obese (MHO), metabolically unhealthy normal weight (MUNW), metabolically unhealthy overweight (MUOW) and metabolically unhealthy obese (MUO). Results The MHO, MUOW, and MUO individuals at baseline were associated with incidence of T2D, independently of age and gender. MHO were 3 times (OR 2.96; 95% CI 1.07, 8.24) and MUOW were 2.75 times (95% CI 1.17, 6.45) more likely to develop T2D than those with MHNW. There was excess risk in MUO than MHO (OR 3.86; 95% CI 1.64, 9.11). Conclusions Obesity was a risk factor for T2D, even in the absence of any metabolic abnormalities. Metabolic abnormalities were a stronger predictor of incident T2D than obesity. © 2017 Diabetes India
