Abstract(summary):

Aim To evaluate the role of fetuin-A levels in predicting glycaemic outcomes (progression to diabetes or reversion to normoglycaemia) in people with prediabetes. Methods A total of 2119 people were screened, of whom 144 people with prediabetes, 50 people with normoglycaemia and 66 people with newly diagnosed diabetes underwent estimation of fasting insulin, fetuin-A, interleukin-6, interleukin-1 beta, tumour necrosis factor-alpha, lipid and 25-hydroxyvitamin-D levels and assessment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease using ultrasonography and the fatty liver index. People with prediabetes were followed and analysed according to glycaemic outcome and quartile of fetuin-A level. Results Fetuin-A, interleukin-1 beta, interleukin-6, tumour necrosis factor-alpha and triglyceride levels and presence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease increased across the glycaemic spectrum and were highest in people with diabetes. A total of 32 people with prediabetes reverted to normoglycaemia, 23 progressed to diabetes and 65 remained with prediabetes over a mean +/- SD follow-up of 32.12 +/- 8.4 months. People progressing to diabetes had higher baseline glycaemia rates, fetuin-A levels, interleukin-1 beta levels, fatty liver index scores and prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and lower 25-hydroxyvitamin-D levels. People with prediabetes in the highest fetuin-A quartile had the highest risk of progression to diabetes (relative risk 2.68, 95% CI 0.95-7.55; P = 0.06) and the lowest rate of reversion to normoglycaemia (relative risk 0.27, 95% CI 0.08-0.85; P = 0.03). Fetuin-A levels correlated with interleukin-1 beta levels (r = 0.420; P < 0.001), interleukin-6 levels (r = 0.231; P = 0.022) and fatty liver index scores (r = 0.319; P < 0.001). Cox regression showed that higher fetuin-A levels and higher BMI and lower 25-hydroxyvitamin-D levels were predictive of lower rates of reversion to normoglycaemia. Age, triglyceride levels, and interleukin-6 and interleukin-1 beta levels were predictive of progression to diabetes. Conclusions Increased fetuin-A level has an adverse impact on glycaemic outcomes in prediabetes. This study highlights the importance of fetuin-A as a predictor of glycaemic outcomes in prediabetes.
