introduction: metabolic syndrome includes obesity, hypertriglyceridemia, glucose intolerance, hypertension and lipid profile abnormalities. the risk of cardiovascular diseases with this syndrome is higher than every components alone. in view of its burden and high mortality rate, this syndrome should be noted. methods: the 25-64 aged individuals in 17th zone of tehran were studied. it was desig...

metabolic syndrome (ms) is a condition, which constitutes a group of risk factors that occur together and increase the risk for coronary artery disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes mellitus. this disorder is found prevalent in the industrialized societies of the world in epidemic proportions. periodontitis is an oral disease of microbial origin characterized by loss of attachment apparatus of to...

Vitamin D insufficiency is prevalent and may be associated with higher risk for metabolic syndrome. Low serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 is known to perturb cellular function in many tissues, including the endocrine pancreas, which are involved in the pathogenesis of obesity and type 2 diabetes. This study examined the vitamin 25(OH)D3 concentration and its relationship with the metabolic syndrome am...

These are multifactorial diseases, pathogenesis which intertwined mutually aggravate their courses. There both external internal reasons forming stones in biliary tract. Genetic...

the lipid accumulation product is a novel, safe and inexpensive index of central lipid over accumulation based on waist circumference and fasting concentration of circulating triglycerides. this study was designed to investigate the ability of lipid accumulation product to predict cardio-metabolic risk factors in postmenopausal women. in this cross-sectional study, 264 postmenopausal women by u...

Introduction: The cause of the metabolic syndrome (MS) is incompletely understood but represents a complex interaction between genetic, environmental, and metabolic factors, clearly including diet, and level of physical activity. The prevalence of MS is continuously increasing in the general population. Recently it has been found that MS is also common in renal transplant recipients (RTRs). The...

Despite the fact that relationship of metabolic syndrome (MS) with structurally functional changes in heart is well established, role disorders, main which insulin resistance (IR), not completely defined.
