“…This may indicate that alcohol consumption had a significant impact on obesity in Chinese men. Taking into account WC [34] was considered a better indicator of visceral fat, this result promoted that alcohol may increase insulin resistance by increasing visceral fat in overweight people.…”

With economic development in China, the alcohol consumption increases sharply [1] and the prevalence of diabetes also increases greatly. Yang's study [2] showed that the age-standardized prevalence of total diabetes and prediabetes in China were 9.7% and 15.5%, respectively. The β-cell function of type 2 diabetic patients in Chinese-American is impaired earlier and more prominent performance [3]. Previous studies have shown alcohol intake was associated with insulin resistance (IR) and obesity [4][5][6][7], however, it is not clear the effect of alcohol consumption on β-cell secretion.The aim of this study was to evaluate whether alcohol consumption was associated with β-cell function, and the association may be further confounded by an Association of alcohol consumption with the impaired β-cell function independent of body mass index among Chinese men Abstract. Alcohol consumption is associated with type 2 diabetes. However, the relationship between alcohol consumption and β-cell function is still unclear. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between them. 675 Chinese men aged 20-75 years were recruited. The subjects were first classified into never drinkers, abstainers, light drinkers (0.1-19.9 g/day), moderate drinkers (20.0-39.9 g/day) and heavy drinkers (≥ 40.0 g/day) and then, were further divided into two subgroups according to body mass index (BMI) (BMI<25kg/m 2 and BMI ≥ 25kg/m 2 ). Analysis procedure was adjusted by the confounders including age, smoking status, BMI, waist circumference (WC), blood pressure, lipids and blood uric acid. Compared with never drinkers, alcohol consumption was associated with decreased homeostasis model assessment of β-cell function (HOMA-β) independent of BMI. The homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was significantly correlated with alcohol consumption history in the group of BMI<25kg/m 2 and was significantly correlated with alcohol consumption in the group of BMI ≥ 25kg/m 2 . The results suggest that alcohol consumption is associated with the β-cell dysfunction independent of BMI in Chinese community dwelling men.Key words: Alcohol consumption, β-cell function, Body mass index, Chinese men increase in obesity among community-dwelling men in urban area of China. methods SubjectThe study sample was drawn from the central population register (≥5 years) aged 20-75 years living in Shungen, Shunya and Shunyu communities of Jinan City, China. We randomly recruited 1865 individuals attending face to face investigation. Study purpose and procedures were explained to participants. All subjects signed a written informed consent. The project was approved by the Ethics Committee of Provincial Hospital

“…Also, a research that was conducted on Korean adults confirmed the relationship of a lower education level and personal income with a higher risk of the metabolic syndrome in women (19). Moreover, Mangat et al (20) reported a significant correlation between higher SES and sedentary jobs and metabolic syndrome in North India. The results of other population-based cross-sectional study on males in British towns confirmed that adult and childhood social classes were both inversely related to the metabolic syndrome (21).…”

Background: Metabolic syndrome is a disorder that increases the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Objectives: The aim of the study was to evaluate some risk factors of the metabolic syndrome and food intakes among people who lived in Ahvaz City, Iran. Methods: It was a filed study that was conducted on 211 subjects who participated in health exhibition. Socioeconomic status and ethnicity were asked by a general questionnaire. Weight, height, body mass index, waist circumference (WC) and WC to hip circumference ratio (WHR) were obtained. Blood sugar was measured by a glucometer. Systolic and diastolic blood pressures were obtained and dietary intakes were assessed by a brief instrument. Results: There was a significant difference in weight, height, WC, WHR and systolic blood pressure among different jobs. Workers had more intakes of cake and sweets. Arab subjects had more intakes of bread and fishes and Persians more intakes of vegetables. Soda, chocolate and candy were more consumed by Kurd ethnicity. Conclusions: Job may be accounted as an important effective socioeconomic factor related to metabolic syndrome risk factors; also different cultures due to different ethnicities may have an influence on lifestyle and dietary intakes.

“…13 The National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP-III) devised a definition for the metabolic syndrome and it is one of the most widely used criteria for metabolic syndrome. It uses measurements and laboratory results that are readily available to physicians, facilitating its clinical and epidemiological application.…”
