This study indictes tht vitl exhustion exists mong the generl popultion in sub-shrn Afric s in other countries nd high levels of vitl exhustion is ssocited with migrine. Effective screening nd tretment would reduce psychitric comorbidities, including vitl exhustion, mong migrineurs.

Previous studies show ssocitions between migrine, depression nd suicidl behviors. The impct of migrine on ptients nd its ssocited risk fctors nd outcomes remins limited, prticulrly in low- nd middle-income countries. Few studies in low- nd middle-income countries hve investigted the ssocition between migrine nd suicidl behviors, prticulrly in sub-shrn Afric.

Migrine clssifiction ws bsed on the Interntionl Clssifiction of Hedche Disorders-2 dignostic criteri.

After djusting for confounders, migrine ws ssocited with 1.49-fold incresed odds of suicidl behvior (95Cl: ) compred to those who did not hve migrine (Tble 2). In prticipnts without depression, migrine ws significntly ssocited with suicidl behvior in fully djusted model (OR: 2.27, 95Cl: ) s compred to prticipnts without migrine. However, in prticipnts with depression, the ssocition ws not significnt (Tble 3). Tble 2.

6 Predicting Crdio-Metbolic Risk using Body Shpe Index (ABSI) nd Body Roundness Index (BRI) mong Ethiopin Adults Dniel Nguyen 1, Andrei Stefnescu 1, Hnn Y. Berhne 2, Yemne Berhne 2, Michelle A. Willims 1, Bizu Gelye 1 1 Deprtment of Epidemiology, Hrvrd T.H. Chn School of Public Helth, Boston, MA, USA; 2 Addis Continentl Institute of Public Helth, Addis Abb, Ethiopi The Body Mss Index (BMI) nd Wist Circumference (WC) re widely used nthropometric mesures for identifying crdiovsculr disese risk globlly. Recently, two new nthropometric mesures hve been proposed s better lterntives to BMI nd WC: the A Body Shpe Index (ABSI) nd Body Roundness Index (BRI). Both ABSI nd BRI re clculted re bsed on WC nd height. We sought to exmine the extent to which the trditionl (BMI nd WC) nd new mesures (ABSI nd BRI) of diposity cn predict metbolic syndrome (MetS) nd its components mong working dults in Ethiopi. The World Orgniztion STEPwise pproch ws used to collect sociodemogrphic dt, nthropometric mesurements, nd blood smples. Fsting blood glucose (FBG) nd lipid concentrtions were mesured using stndrd pproches. MetS ws defined ccording to the Interntionl Dibetes Federtion (IDF) criteri. Spermn s rnk correltion, receiver operting chrcteristic (ROC) curves, nd logistic regressions were used to determine the ssocitions between MetS nd four nthropometric indices: BMI, WC, ABSI, nd BRI. Among men, BRI ws most strongly ssocited with triglycerides [TG] (r=0.514), BMI ws strongly ssocited with systolic blood pressure[sbp] (r = 0.401) while WC ws strongly ssocited with distolic blood pressure [DBP] (r = 0.419). Among women, BRI ws strongly ssocited with TG (r = 0.478) nd DBP (r = 0.434). WC ws strongly ssocited with SBP (r = 0.443) nd FBG (r = 0.306). Review of the ROC curves shows tht BRI ws the best predictor for MetS (re under curve [AUC] = 0.94) mong men nd women (AUC = 0.87). BRI ws lso the best predictor of Mets components including elevted TG (AUC=0.77 nd 0.74,), elevted FBG (AUC=0.61 nd 0.63), nd elevted SBP (AUC=0.70 nd AUC=0.74) mong men nd women, respectively. Tble 2. Spermn s Rnk Correltion Coefficients for Anthropometric Mesures & Crdiovsculr Disese Risk Fctors Abbrevitions: BMI Body Mss Index; WC wist circumference; ABSI A Body Shpe Index; BRI Body Roundness Index. All coefficients re significnt t the 0.01 level except for those between ABSI nd HDL-C for both men nd women, which were not significnt (p > 0.25 in both cses). Figure 1. ROC Curves (AUC) for Metbolic Syndrome mong Men BMI (kg/m 2 ) WC (cm) ABSI BRI Men Fsting Blood Glucose (mg/dl) Triglyceride (mg/dl) HDL-C (mg/dl) Systolic Blood Pressure (mm Hg) Distolic Blood Pressure (mm Hg) Women Fsting Blood Glucose (mg/dl) Triglyceride (mg/dl) HDL-C (mg/dl) Systolic Blood Pressure (mm Hg) Distolic Blood Pressure (mm Hg) Figure 2. ROC Curves (AUC) for Metbolic Syndrome mong Women Tble 1. Chrcteristics of the Study Popultion Chrcteristic Men (N = 1165) Women (N = 759) P-Vlue * Age Men ± SD 35.7 ± ± Age Eduction Bchelor s < High School Smoking Sttus Never Smoker < Former Smoker Current Smoker Alcohol Consumption Low < Moderte High Current Kht Use < Excellent Self-Reported Helth BMI Underweight ( 18.5) < Norml ( ) Overweight ( ) Obese ( 30.0) Physicl Activity Low < Moderte High s for continuous vribles re obtined from Student s t-tests. s for ctegoricl vribles re obtined from chi squre tests of independence. BMI [0.88 ( )] WC [0.95 ( )] ABSI [0.76 ( )] BRI [0.94 ( )] Conclusion Among the four mesures of diposity, BRI is most strongly nd consistently ssocited with MetS nd MetS components mong both men nd women. Even though BMI is the most common mesure of diposity, it is limited in distinguishing between excess dipose tissue nd muscle mss. Findings from our study underscore the utility of using new nd trditionl diposity mesures in identifying crdiovsculr disese risk in resource-limited settings.
