It is a combination of metabolic abnormalities associated with increased risk for DM and cardiovascular disease. METABOLIC SYNDROME
1. Waist circumference: (≥ 102 cms M; ≥ 88 cm F) 2. TG > 150 mg/dl (1.7 mmol/l or treatment for elevated TG ) 3. HDL-C <40 mg/dl (0.9 mmol/l) M; <50 mg/dl (1.1 mmol/l) F; or treatment for ↓HDL-C 4. FB glucose ≥100 mg/dl (5.6 mmol/l) or treatment for ↑glucose 5. BP >130/85 or treatment for hypertension 1. Waist circumference: (≥ 102 cms M; ≥ 88 cm F) 2.

CVD RISK FACTORS: Hypertension Dyslipidemia: TG, small LDL ↓ HDL, APOB Glucose DM CVD RISK FACTORS: Hypertension Dyslipidemia: TG, small LDL ↓ HDL, APOB Glucose DM
Prothombotic state: fibrinogen Factor VII Plasminogen activator inhibitors. Prothombotic state: fibrinogen Factor VII Plasminogen activator inhibitors.
Proinflammatory state: cytokinase C R P Proinflammatory state: cytokinase C R P
Underlying Causes: Obesity: risk correlates with waist. Insulin resistance Underlying Causes: Obesity: risk correlates with waist. Insulin resistance
Exacerbating Factors: Lack of exercise ↑ age Endocrine and genetic Exacerbating Factors: Lack of exercise ↑ age Endocrine and genetic
Progressive: Borderline RF ↑ Catagoric T2DM Progressive: Borderline RF ↑ Catagoric T2DM
CVD risk in MS 1.5 – 3 depending on stage of progression: with DM. Risk rises geometrically with multiple risk factors. i.e., multiplicative rather than linear.

Other associated abnormalities : Fatty liver Gall stones Gout Obstructive sleep apnea Polycystic ovaries Other associated abnormalities : Fatty liver Gall stones Gout Obstructive sleep apnea Polycystic ovaries
Treatment : Life style modification (reduced weight, exercise) Antiatherogenic diet Treatment : Life style modification (reduced weight, exercise) Antiatherogenic diet
With progression : Treat individual risk factors: (e.g., BP, DM, dyslipidemia) With progression : Treat individual risk factors: (e.g., BP, DM, dyslipidemia)
