| description | Introduction: The visceral adiposity index is a reliable indicator of visceral adipose tissue dysfunction. The aim of this research was to determine the cut-off points of the visceral adiposity index in predicting metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and hypertension at specific age ranges and in both sexes separately.Methods: This research is both descriptive and analytical. The research was conducted with 951 participants aged 18 and over between July 2019 and July 2020. 51 participants that did not meet study criteria were excluded from the research. The research was completed with a total of 900 participants, 577 females and 373 males. A physical examination and anthropometric measurements (height, weight, waist circumference, and blood pressure) of all participants were conducted. After 12 hours of fasting, the HDL, TG, glucose, and insulin levels of participants were measured. The blood pressure of participants was measured after 15 minutes of rest. Adult treatment panel 3 criteria were used for the diagnosis of metabolic syndrome. A homeostatic model assessment was calculated. The visceral adiposity index is calculated in the entire population for the prediction of metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, diabetes, and hypertension: women, men, age groups 18–30, 31–40, 41–50, 51–65, 66 and over.Results: Cut-off points of the visceral adiposity index in predicting metabolic syndrome were 4.53 in the total population and males, 4.28 in females, 4.76 in the 18-30 age range, 4.96 in the 31-40 age range, 4.87 in the 41-50 age range, 5.04 in the 51-65 age range, and 4.59 in the age range 66 and above. Cut-off points of the visceral adiposity index in predicting insulin resistance were 4.24 in the total population and females, 4.68 in males, 3.45 in the 18-30 age range, 4.15 in the 31-40 age range, 4.66 in the 41-50 age range, and 4.87 in the 51-65 age range. Cut-off points of the visceral adiposity index in predicting type 2 diabetes mellitus were 4.89 in the total population, 6.43 in females, 7.02 in the 31-40 age range, 7.29 in the 41-50 age range, and 5.98 in the 51-65 age range. Cut-off points of the visceral adiposity index in predicting hypertension were 4.26 in the total population, 4.07 in females, 4.64 in the 18–30 age range, and 4.43 in the 51–65 age range.Conclusions: The visceral adiposity index can be used to predict metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension. |
