Identifying the Association of Prediabetes and Cardiovascular Diseases with Metabolic Syndrome Patients in India

Abstract

Background: Increased urbanization decreases physical activity which promotes many life-threatening diseases among people in developing countries like India. Metabolic syndrome increases the health burden and mortality rate among middle-aged people. Early diagnosis of the risk factor associated with this pathological disorder can be a help to overcome this life-threatening pathological disorder by delaying disease progression. Materials and Methods: A total of 400 patients with metabolic syndrome are identified. Patient blood samples were collected and processed. Biochemical parameters include fasting blood sugar and lipid profiles which include TC, HDL, LDL very-LDL (VLDL), and triglycerides were analyzed using an autoanalyzer. Altered fasting blood sugar level and lipid profile are used to diagnose the status of diabetes and cardiovascular disorder. Results: The fasting blood sugar levels of the patients were in the range of prediabetic condition and so the patients are more prevalent to diabetes mellitus. An altered lipid profile ratio with a decreased level of good cholesterol and increased level of bad cholesterol was also observed in association with prediabetic condition. Conclusion: The altered levels of these biochemical parameters in metabolic syndrome patients gives the idea about its association of prediabetes with cardiovascular disorders among the Indian population.
