Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to investigate the relationship between serum α-Klotho levels and insulin resistance (IR), a precursor to type 2 diabetes. Methods The study analyzed data from 4,758 adult participants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning from 2007 to 2016. The relationship between α-Klotho concentration and IR was assessed using the Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) and odds ratios (OR) derived from logistic regression models. Results Results showed that every 1-ln increase in α-Klotho concentration raised the HOMA-IR value by 0.55 (95% confidence interval 0.35–0.74) and the odds of IR by 64% (odds ratio 1.64; 95% confidence interval 1.28–2.1). The odds of IR was 40% greater in highest tertile than in the lowest tertile. Conclusion The findings of this study underscore a significant correlation between increased serum α-Klotho levels and the prevalence of IR.
