Abstract

Background. Metabolic syndrome (MS) is characterised by a constellation of individual risk factors of cardiovascular disease. Materials and Methods. The current study was a population-based survey of cohort of subjects in the metropolitan city of Mumbai. A total of 548 subjects, who attended the CARDIAC evaluation camp, were recruited in the study. Participants with complete fasting lipid profiles, blood glucose, and known cardiac risk markers were evaluated. Results. On applying modified NCEP ATP III, we found out that nearly 95% of the subjects had at least one abnormal parameter. We found the prevalence of MS in our study population to be 19.52%. The prevalence of MS in males was almost double than females (P = .008). The overall prevalence of BMI (>23 kg/m(2)) was 79.01%. Increased hypertriglyceridemia and decreased levels of HDL-C were found to be more in males (P < .0001). Conclusion. The low percentage of subjects with normal and controlled parameters suggests that there is a need for awareness programs and lifestyle interventions for the prevention and control of MS.

印度城市代谢综合征的患病率。

背景。代谢综合征(MS)的特点是心血管疾病的个体危险因素的星座。材料与方法。目前的研究是一项以人口为基础的调查，研究对象是孟买大城市的一群人。本研究共招募了548名参加心脏评估营的受试者。对空腹血脂、血糖和已知心脏危险指标完整的参与者进行评估。结果。应用改进的NCEP ATP III，我们发现近95%的受试者至少有一个参数异常。我们发现MS在我们的研究人群中的患病率为19.52%。男性MS患病率几乎是女性的两倍(P = 0.008)。BMI (>23 kg/m(2))的总患病率为79.01%。高甘油三酯血症的增加和HDL-C水平的降低在男性中更为明显(P < 0.0001)。结论。正常和控制参数的受试者比例较低，这表明有必要进行意识规划和生活方式干预，以预防和控制MS。
