title: [Fasting serum glucose and its related indexes in 1477 middle aged and elderly people].
abstract: In order to study the relationship between higher fasting serum glucose (FSG) and other related indexes in middle aged and elderly people, FSG, triglyceride, cholesterol, urate and insulin of serum, blood pressure and body mass index(BMI) of 1477 men and women over 40 years of age were analyzed. The results showed that the level of FSG rised with the increase of age. The relations between FSG and cholesterol, urate, blood pressure and BMI were significant. The levels of cholesterol, urate, blood pressure and BMI in the abnormal FSG group were higher than those in the normal FSG group. There were positive relationships between FSG and cholesterol, urate, blood pressure, BMI, age, waist and buttock circumferences. The factors related to FSG were age, BMI, cholesterol and diastolic pressure by stepwise regression.
