Sakurai T et al. – There was an age–associated increase in the prevalence of abdominal obesity and insulin resistance in elderly diabetic Japanese subjects, with a clear relationship between waist circumference and insulin resistance. However, insulin resistance was elevated not only in cases with but also in those without abdominal obesity if accompanied by clustering of metabolic disorders. The AHA/NHLBI definition of MetS proved to be the most useful to predict cardiovascular disease in the diabetic elderly.
