This study investigated the prevalence of insulin resistance (IR), dyslipidemia, and metabolic syndrome (MS) in children with asthma aged 10 to 15 years. The results revealed that the prevalence of IR in children with asthma was 42.3%. Elevated serum insulin, triglycerides, and the presence of IR were associated with poorer asthma control, independent of BMI.
ObjectivesTo determine the prevalence of insulin resistance (IR), dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome (MS) in children with asthma, aged 10 to 15 y, and to determine if these metabolic abnormalities showed an association with asthma symptom control and lung function.MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary centre in north India. Consecutive children with physician diagnosed asthma were enrolled. Asthma symptom control over previous four weeks was assessed as per Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) recommendations. Fasting plasma glucose, serum insulin and lipid levels were estimated. Homeostasis Model Assessment- Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) was used as a marker of IR. Spirometry was performed for assessing lung function.ResultsEighty-three children were enrolled. Median (IQR) age was 12.0 (11.0, 13.5) y and mean (SD) body mass index (BMI) Z score was -0.42 (1.0). Median (IQR) HOMA-IR was 1.65 (1.06, 2.39). Prevalence of IR was 42.3% (95% CI: 31.7-52.9%). Number of children with elevated triglycerides, total cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol was 4 (4.8%), 4 (4.8%) and 5 (6%), respectively. Sixty-seven (80.7%) children had low high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol. Only one subject was found to have metabolic syndrome. Presence of IR and elevation in serum insulin and triglycerides were associated with poorer asthma control, independent of BMI. None of the metabolic parameters were associated with lung function, after adjusting for height.ConclusionsAmong children with asthma, aged 10 to 15 y, the prevalence of IR was 42.3% (95% CI: 31.7-52.9%). Elevated serum insulin, triglycerides, and presence of IR were associated with poorer asthma control, after adjusting for BMI.
