Abstract
The evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD) concerning the metabolic status and body mass index (BMI) is poorlystudied. This study was designed to observe the relationship between insulin resistance (IR) and the severity of CADon the basis of the metabolic and phenotypic status in stable-angina patients. A cross-sectional study was conductedon 532 patients with stable angina and coronary angiogram was done to diagnose the CAD for all. Determination ofmetabolic obesity was done using the National Cholesterol Education Program-Adult Treatment Panel III criteria.Phenotypic obesity was defined as BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2. Homeostasis model assessment IR in correlation with the severityof CAD was measured using SYNTAX (TAXUS Drug-Eluting Stent Versus Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery for theTreatment of Narrowed Arteries) Score. The average age of the patients was 57.58 ± 10.40 years, and 69.4% weremales. Out of 532 subjects, 51.3% were hypertensive, 14.5% were smokers, 29.1% consumed alcohol, 49.3% weremetabolically obese, and 50% were phenotypically obese. Increase in IR increased the risk of severity of CAD inmetabolically obese subjects (OR = 2.51, p = 0.048). In the phenotypically obese group, the relationship between IRand the severity of CAD was not statistically significant (OR = −2.19, p = 0.08). The study concludes that the increasedIR increases the risk of severity of CAD in metabolically obese subjects.
