To analyze the relationship between the ratio of glycated albumin to glycated hemoglobin (GA/HbA1c)and all-cause mortality in adults with metabolic syndrome MetS.
This study is a retrospective cohort study utilizing data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) and the National Death Index (NDI) from 1999 to 2004. A total of 1 497 eligible participants were included and followed up until December 31, 2019. The relationship between the GA/HbA1c ratio and all-cause mortality in MetS patients was assessed using Kaplan-Meier survival curves, multivariable weighted Cox regression, and restricted cubic splines.
Among a weighted population of 55 224 898 eligible individuals with a median follow-up of 16.3 years, there were 501 cases of all-cause mortality. Participants were divided into three groups(T1, T2, T3) based on weighted tertiles of the GA/HbA1c ratio. After adjusting for covariates, a higher GA/HbA1c ratio (T3) was associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality in MetS patients compared to the lowest tertile (T1) (HR=1.335, 95%CI:1.010-1.772). The restricted cubic spline analysis also revealed a non-linear “S” shaped relationship between the GA/HbA1c ratio and all-cause mortality (non-linear P<0.05). Subgroup analyses (all interaction P>0.05) and sensitivity analyses (HR=1.344, 95%CI: 1.014-1.783) showed similar results.
There is a non-linear association between the GA/HbA1c ratio and all-cause mortality in patients with metabolic syndrome, with higher GA/HbA1c ratios linked to an increased risk of all-cause mortality in these patients.
