Brief Summary

As alternative flame retardants (FRs), novel brominated flame retardants (NBFRs) and organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs) are ubiquitous in environment and may cause endocrine disruption effects. The associations between traditional endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and type 2 diabetes have been extensively reported in epidemiological studies. To date, however, human-based evidence on the effects of NBFRs and OPFRs is lacking. The investigators conducted a case-control study of 344 participants aged 25-80 years from Shandong Province, East China, to assess potential associations between serum NBFR and OPFR concentrations and etiology of type 2 diabetes for the first time.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • alternative FRs

    Determination of FRs was performed by a gas chromatography triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS, TQ-8050NX, Shimadzu, Japan) equipped with an electron ionization (EI+) ion source.

Study Population

we will conduct a case-control study of 340 participants from Shandong 116 Province, East China, to evaluate the associations between serum NBFR and OPFR and risk of type 2 diabetes.

You may qualify if:

  • Group of Type 2 diabetes patients:
  • age 18 \~ 75 years old;
  • type 2 diabetes patients diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University (Qianfoshan Hospital of Shandong Province) , HBA1C ≥7.0% and \<10.5% ;
  • patients signed informed consent.
  • Control Group:
  • age 18 \~ 75 years old;
  • healthy population recruited from the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University (Qianfoshan Hospital of Shandong Province) ;
  • living in the monitoring area for more than 6 months within 12 months;
  • normal thyroid function and no history of thyroid cancer were needed in the control group;
  • Fasting Blood Glucose level of 0.7 mmol/l was needed in the Control Group of Type 2 diabetes Mellitus Without History of diabetes;
  • patients with informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Group of Type 2 diabetes:
  • pregnant, lactating women, patients with acute cardiac cerebrovascular disease;
  • patients with severe liver and Renal Impairment (related laboratory tests more than 2 times the normal) ;
  • patients with Type 1 diabetes;
  • participants in other clinical trials within 3 months;
  • patients with malignant tumors.
  • has the disease and so on serious anemia, is not suitable to carry on the patient which the blood draws the test.
  • Control Group:
  • patients with serious heart, liver or kidney disease;
  • patients with iodine or Thyroid hormone;
  • patients with confirmed malignant tumor;
  • pregnant women or those who have recently taken contraception or estrogen.

RECRUITING

Biospecimen

Retention: SAMPLES WITHOUT DNA

Blood samples were collected in vacutainer tubes without anticoagulants. The levels of FPG, TG, TC, HDL-C, and LDL-C were measured at the above hospital. The whole blood samples in tubes were centrifuged at 4 000 r min-1 for 10 min, and were placed in two sample tubes. One n was used for determination of FPG and lipid fractions in the hospital. And the other was maintained at -20 ℃ for FRs analysis. FPG was determined enzymatically, and lipid fractions were analyzed using an enzymatic spectrophotometric method in serum . Total lipids (TLs) were counted using Phillip's formula: TL = 2.27 × TC + TG + 0.623.
