“…The prevalence worldwide ranges from 45.8% and 96.3%. [11][12] Similar study done at diabetes centre in Galle, Sri Lanka showed the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in Type 2 DM population to be 70% which was consistent with our study. 13 Our study showed 84 male and 58 female participants had metabolic syndrome which was not similar to the study by Ford et al 4 and Nsiah K et al 14 which showed higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome in females.…”

“…17 Additionally, in our study 70 (35%), 41 (20.5%) and 29 (14.5%) of the patients had three, four or five altered components of metabolic syndrome respectively, which were higher than those found among diabetics in other study. 17 Age groups 45-54, 55-64 and 65-74 years who had more than three components of metabolic syndrome were 14 (20%), 20 (28.6%) and 19 (27.1%) respectively, which indicates that the participants of the age group 45-54 years are likely to have a high prevalence of metabolic syndrome, irrespective of sex. Hence, prevention and control measures should be taken when the age approaches since the prevalence of metabolic syndrome increases with age.…”

“…6 Those with metabolic syndrome have up to 24.5-fold increased risk of developing T2DM with overt hyperglycemia, 7 and 50-72% of those with T2DM have metabolic syndrome. 8,9 Both metabolic syndrome and diabetes mellitus (DM) are on the rise as a pandemic global health concern. DM currently affects 425 million people worldwide, with an estimated increase to 629 million by 2045.…”
