Pathophysiology of Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome is a constellation of interrelated abnormalities (namely obesity, dyslipidaemia, hyperglycaemia, and hypertension) that increase the risk for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. This is a common metabolic disorder which increases in prevalence as the population becomes more obese. The disorder is defined in various ways. Diagnostic criteria for the metabolic syndr...
متن کاملHypertension in Metabolic Syndrome: Vascular Pathophysiology
METABOLIC SYNDROME IS A CLUSTER OF METABOLIC AND CARDIOVASCULAR SYMPTOMS: insulin resistance (IR), obesity, dyslipemia. Hypertension and vascular disorders are central to this syndrome. After a brief historical review, we discuss the role of sympathetic tone. Subsequently, we examine the link between endothelial dysfunction and IR. NO is involved in the insulin-elicited capillary vasodilatation...
متن کاملPathophysiology of the proatherothrombotic state in the metabolic syndrome.
Obesity and insulin resistance are very frequently associated to the metabolic syndrome (MetS), play a pivotal role in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Although it varies among ethnic groups, the worldwide prevalence of MetS is 23% in young adults and increases with age. Remarkably, the prevalence of MetS is expected to rise du...
متن کاملPediatric Metabolic Syndrome: Pathophysiology and Laboratory Assessment
Pediatric overweight and obesity is an emerging public health priority as rates have rapidly increased worldwide. Obesity is often clustered with other metabolic abnormalities including hypertension, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance, leading to increased risk of cardiovascular disease. This cluster of risk factors, termed the metabolic syndrome, has traditionally been reported in adults. Ho...
