Association between serum ferritin, cardiorespiratory fitness and risk of type 2 diabetes: Aerobics Center longitudinal study

摘要: Recent studies suggest that an elevated serum ferritin concentration is considered independent factor associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes, and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) inversely diabetes. The cross-sectional study investigates 6,230 participants’ data from the Aerobics Center Longitudinal Study, Cooper Institute (Dallas, Texas). authors explored whether CRF level lower a prevalence Participants high levels triglyceride were 1.89 1.57 times, respectively, more likely to have Overweight or obese individuals 1.35 1.40 times family history diabetes 3.96 Lower was in those participating fitness. It suggests physicians may use patients’ concentrations as marker for predicting their new-onset patients should be encouraged participate physical activities.
