Qatar's Silent Epidemic: A Comprehensive Meta-analysis on the Prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome.
Background: Metabolic syndrome comprises various conditions like abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, elevated triglyceride levels, reduced HDL, and high blood pressure, which pose significant health challenges globally. It's imperative to determine its prevalence in specific populations to formulate effective preventive measures.
Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in the Qatari population.
Methods: Using the PRISMA guidelines, a systematic search was executed on PubMed until July 2023 with keywords "Metabolic syndrome" and "Qatar." Eligibility criteria included human subjects, studies assessing metabolic syndrome components, and research conducted in Qatar or on Qatari subjects. The quality of the studies was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). Pooled prevalence rates were calculated using the inverse variance weighting metaanalysis.
Results: Out of 237 studies, 14 met our inclusion criteria, with a combined sample size of 14,772 from the Qatari population. The overall pooled prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 26%. The ATP III and IDF criteria exhibited significant differences in prevalence rates, with the IDF criteria showing a higher prevalence. Age ≥ 40 years demonstrated a higher prevalence compared to the younger group. Studies post-2018 reported a decreasing trend in metabolic syndrome prevalence.
Conclusion: The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in the Qatari population is comparable to rates in the Middle East. The study underscores the need for tailored interventions and strategies, especially targeting the older age group. Continuous research and monitoring are essential to track and understand the disease's progression in Qatar.
