Background: There are disparities for the association between uncoupling proteins (UCP) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM). The study was to examine the associations of genetic variants of UCP2 and UCP3 with prediabetes and T2DM in a rural Chinese population.
Methods: A population-based case-control study of 397 adults with T2DM, 394 with prediabetes and 409 with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) was carried out in 2014 in a rural community in eastern China.
Objective: To investigate the iodine status and its change among school-aged children in their morning urine and eating salt from 2012 to 2014 in Yuhuan County, Zhejiang Province, China.
Methods: Three repeated cross-sectional studies were carried out at a same primary school in 2012, 2013 and 2014, respectively. Three classes were randomly selected from each of 3 to 5 grade by the cluster-stratified sampling every year.
Objective: To assess the possible role of insulin resistance (IR) and β cell function in the pathophysiology of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetics (T2DM).
Methods: An oral glucose tolerance test was obtained at the health cohort baseline. Subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT, n = 269), impaired glucose regulation (IGR, n = 269) and newly diagnosed type 2 diabetics (T2DM, n = 269) were defined by ADA criteria.
Objective: To understand the level of urinary iodine and iodine content of salt among school children aged 8 to 10 years in Yuhuan County, Zhejiang Province.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in a primary school of Yuhuan County purposely selected in 2012. Totally, 450 children aged 8 to 10 years were involved by the cluster-stratified sampling.
