Global Coronary Heart Disease Risk Assessment of Individuals With the Metabolic Syndrome in the U.S.
OBJECTIVE Although metabolic syndrome is related to an increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) events, individuals with metabolic syndrome encompass a wide range of CHD risk levels. This study describes the distribution of 10-year CHD risk among U.S. adults with metabolic syndrome. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Metabolic syndrome was defined by the modified National Cholesterol Education...
INTRODUCTION The interrelation between metabolic syndrome (MetS) (the revised National Cholesterol Education Program-Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III) and International Diabetes Federation (IDF)) and obesity indices in predicting clinical severity and prognosis of acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is insufficiently known. MATERIAL AND METHODS This prospective study inclu...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence of age and gender on the prevalence and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in Europeans presenting with the Metabolic Syndrome (MetS). METHODS Using 36 cohorts from the MORGAM-Project with baseline between 1982-1997, 69094 men and women aged 19-78 years, without known CVD, were included. During 12.2 years of follow-up, 3.7%/2.1% of men/women died due to C...
BACKGROUND One in every six adults (16.3% of the U.S. adult population) has high total cholesterol levels, and they are at double the risk of heart disease compared with people with optimal levels. OBJECTIVE To evaluate compliance of internal medicine residents with the latest National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III) guidelines in treating patients with ...
BACKGROUND The metabolic syndrome consists of a cluster of atherosclerotic risk factors, many of which also have been implicated in the genesis of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the precise role of the metabolic syndrome in the development of AF is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS This prospective, community-based, observational cohort study was based on an annual health check-up program in J...
With the release of the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III) guidelines, future risk of cardiac event supplanted the cholesterol number as the driving force behind intervention. These new prevention guidelines, based on recent subanalyses from major lipid-lowering clinical trials, support the concept of more aggressive cholesterol-lowering therapy fo...
BACKGROUND There are several diagnostic criteria for Metabolic Syndrome (MS) definition. AIM To study their application in the Chilean general adult population. MATERIAL AND METHODS We analyzed data from a random sub sample of 1.833 adults aged 17 years and older surveyed during the First Chilean National Health Survey conducted in 2003. The prevalence of MS was estimated using the update A...
OBJECTIVE Revised treatment goals suggested by the third report of the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) Adult Treatment Panel (ATP III) represent a challenge to both physicians and the health care industry. We sought to quantify the impact of these changes in a large managed care population being treated with statin therapy. METHODS Using data collected from a retrospective chart...
Generalised obesity is increasing in prevalence globally, however trends in abdominal obesity are less well known. In 2003, 1,999 women of childbearing age participated in the Croatian Adult Health Survey, of whom 598 (29.9%) participated in the second cycle in 2008. For 2008, the prevalence of abdominal obesity using the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) criterion (waist circumference > ...
BACKGROUND Whether measures of insulin resistance provide incremental information regarding atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease beyond current National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) Adult Treatment Panel III metabolic syndrome (MetSyn) criteria or inflammatory markers is uncertain. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined the association of insulin resistance and MetSyn with coronary artery ...
