BACKGROUND Detailed metabolic defects in glucose and energy metabolism and abnormalities in a variety of cardiovascular risk factors are largely unknown in subjects with the metabolic syndrome. METHODS AND RESULTS We characterized the metabolic syndrome in 119 nondiabetic offspring of diabetic probands. Cardiovascular risk factors, including cytokines and adhesion molecules, were measured. In...

metabolic syndrome is highly prevalent in type 2 diabetics and is a strong risk factor for cardiovascular diseases in such patients. the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of metabolic syndrome according to the three criteria of atpiii, idf and the new criteria for metabolic syndrome diagnosis in kerman, iran. this cross-sectional study was performed on 950 diabetic type 2 patien...

What are the appropriate measures to monitor pre-diabetes and its treatment? Peter Wilson (Boston, MA) reviewed Framingham data, with 30-year follow-up now available, showing greater evidence of adverse cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcome with diabetes. It has been recognized for some time that there are clustered abnormalities within the metabolic syndrome spectrum. BMI, triglycerides, waist ...

results: this study showed significantly lowered concentrations of testosterone (3.11 nm/l ± 0.34) and hdl (0.39 mmol/l ± 0.02), in addition to the expected increased concentrations of fasting plasma glucose (9.61 mmol/l ± 0.37) in the subjects compared to controls (p < 0.05). an inverse significant correlation was observed between the serum testosterone concentration and metabolic syndrome (bm...

Background: Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of cardio- metabolic risk factors characterized by abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, and chronic systemic inflammation. Objectives: i)To assess pulmonary function in people with ii)To whether each component affects indices. Methodology: After detailed history physical examination, subjects underwent investigations like fasting lipid profile, bloo...

BACKGROUND Streptococcal infections are known to trigger autoimmune disorders, affecting millions worldwide. Recently, we found an association between post-streptococcal autoantibodies against Protein Disulphide Isomerase (PDI), an enzyme involved in insulin degradation and insulin resistance. This led us to evaluate associations between post-streptococcal antibodies and metabolic syndrome, as ...

Background: The metabolic syndrome is linked to several conventional and rising pro-thrombotic pro-inflammatory cardiac risks. Most patients with cardiovascular disease have syndrome; however, the occurrence connection of its various elements aren't obvious. There isn't any research regarding Metabolic Syndrome in young acute STEMI. Objective: purpose this study was figure out (MS) shown ST-Ele...

abstract background: pregnancy is associated with many physiological changes, which in some cases may cause serious risks such as preeclampsia, and fetal and maternal health threats. recent research has focused on the relationship between metabolic syndrome and preeclampsia. by identifying appropriate indicators for early diagnosis, maternal–fetal complications can be prevented. the present stu...

conclusions this study provides evidence indicating high prevalence of metabolic syndrome in children with t1dm in southern iran. preventive programs aimed towards decreasing the risk factors of metabolic syndrome and interpretation of a healthier diet and physical activity for children with t1dm should be considered in our country. results in this study, 87 children with diabetes (48 females a...

Metabolic syndrome is characterized by central obesity, elevated blood pressure, high fasting glucose and triglyceride levels, and low HDL levels. Regular physical activity can improve the metabolic profile and reduce the risks of cardiovascular diseases and premature mortality. However, the optimal training regime to treat metabolic syndrome and its associated cardiovascular abnormalities rema...
