Objective To explore the relationship between the triglyceride glucose-body mass index (TyG-BMI) and hypertension, type 2 diabetes, as well as their comorbidity, aiming to provide a scientific basis for the early identification and precise prevention of these three diseases. Methods This research collected data from subjects in the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) database. According to the quartiles of TyG-BMI, the included subjects were divided into Q1 group, Q2 group, Q3 group, and Q4 group. Logistic regression was used to analyze the association between the TyG-BMI and the three diseases separately. Further, a restricted cubic spline model was employed to investigate the potential non-linear dose-response relationship between the TyG-BMI index and the three diseases. Subgroup analysis was conducted using interaction tests to investigate whether there was an interaction between TyG-BMI and subgroup factors such as age and gender. Results A total of 4 847 participants were included. There were 1 212 cases in Q1 group, 1 212 cases in Q2 group, 1 211 cases in Q3 group, and 1 212 cases in Q4 group. The logistic regression results indicate that, after adjusting for all confounding factors, participants in the Q4 group had a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and comorbidity of hypertension and type 2 diabetes in Model 3 (P<0.05). The results from the restricted cubic spline model demonstrated a linear relationship between the TyG-BMI index and the risk of type 2 diabetes (P for non-linearity >0.05), while a non-linear relationship was observed with hypertension (P for non-linearity <0.05) and the comorbidity of hypertension and type 2 diabetes (P for non-linearity <0.05). Subgroup analysis using interaction tests showed that compared to the Q1 group, factors such as age, gender, smoking, alcohol consumption, and dyslipidemia in the Q2, Q3, and Q4 groups did not significantly alter the relationship between TyG-BMI and type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and their comorbidity. Overall, there was no significant interaction between TyG-BMI and factors like age, gender, smoking, alcohol consumption, and dyslipidemia (P for interaction >0.05). Conclusions In middle-aged and elderly populations, the higher the TyG-BMI, the greater the risk of hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and their comorbidity. The TyG-BMI could be considered an important indicator for the early identification of hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and their comorbidities.
Objective To analyze the incidence and mortality of acute viral hepatitis in China, project its trends from 2022 to 2030, and provide valuable insights for the prevention and control of viral hepatitis. Methods The incidence and mortality rates of acute viral hepatitis in China from 1990 to 2021 were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease 2021 database. The change rates and the estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) for each indicator were calculated. Additionally, an autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model was used to project the incidence and mortality of acute viral hepatitis in China from 2022 to 2030. Results From 1990 to 2021, the incidence rates of acute hepatitis A (AHA), acute hepatitis B (AHB), acute hepatitis C (AHC), and acute hepatitis E (AHE) in China all showed a declining trend (EAPC=?1.980%, ?2.664%, ?2.078%, ?1.686%; P<0.05), with a particularly marked decrease in mortality (EAPC=?11.662%, ?7.411%, ?12.541%, ?7.504%; P<0.05). According to ARIMA model projections, the incidence rates of AHA and AHB were expected to continue declining from 2022 to 2030, while the incidence rates of AHC and AHE were expected to rise. In 2030, the projected incidence rates of AHA, AHB, AHC, and AHE were 890.425/100000, 824.158/100000, 59.202/100000, and 300.377/100000, respectively. The mortality rates of AHA, AHC, and AHE were projected to remain stable from 2022 to 2030, while the mortality rate of AHB was expected to decline. In 2030, the projected mortality rates of AHA, AHB, AHC, and AHE were 0.002/100000, 0/100000, 0.004/100000, and 0.011/100000, respectively. Conclusions From 1990 to 2021, the overall incidence and mortality of acute viral hepatitis in China showed a downward trend. However, the incidence rates of AHC and AHE may present an upward trend in the future, which suggests that the government and relevant health authorities should adjust their prevention and control strategies in a timely manner.
