“…In the present study, we demonstrated that elevation of waist circumference based on IDF criteria was the most prevalent criterion with a total frequency of 80.2% which is 87.9% and 72% among males and females, respectively that was the superior component to yield larger metabolic syndrome prevalence. This result is higher than the community-based study done among Andean highlanders (75.9%) (36) and the study done in South African Asian Indians who found a prevalence of (73.1%) even though harmonized criteria was used (37).…”

Background: Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are increasingly becoming the global cause of premature death encompassing cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), cancer, respiratory diseases and diabetes mellitus. However, early identification of cardiometabolic risk factors in the general population, especially among the high-risk groups has rarely been assessed in Ethiopia.Purpose: The study aimed to assess the magnitude and associated risk factors of cardiometabolic diseases among Ethiopian Public Health Institute (EPHI) staff members.Methodology: An institutional-based cross-section study was conducted from March to June 2018 among EPHI staff members. A total of 450 study participants were involved in the study, and the World Health Organization NCD STEPS survey instrument version 3.1 was used for the assessment. The biochemical parameters were analyzed by using COBAS 6000 analyzer. Statistical package for the social science (SPSS) version 20 was used for data analysis. Both bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify associated risk factors. P-value <0.05 was considered for statistical significance. Results: Based on IDF criteria, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 27.6%. Central obesity, low HDL and hypertension had a prevalence of 80.2%, 41.3%, and 23.6%, respectively. Increasing age and larger body mass index were significantly associated with metabolic syndromes Conclusion: The magnitude of metabolic syndrome was relatively high in the study participants. Preventive intervention measure should be designed on the modification of lifestyle, nutrition and physical activities, and early screening for early identification of cardiometabolic risks factors should be practised to reduce the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases.

“…The varied prevalence of MS between northern and southern areas of China may be partially explained by different lifestyles, e.g., physical exercise, education level, and economic status [ 16 , 25 ]. In addition to these factors, studies have also revealed that the MS prevalence depends on the definition used [ 26 – 28 ]. The community-based study in Shanghai also revealed moderate to good agreement between the JCDCG definition with the IDF and ATPIII definition, with kappa value between 0.635 and 0.825 in both women and men.…”

Agreement Between the JCDCG, Revised NCEP-ATPIII, and IDF Definitions of Metabolic Syndrome in a Northwestern Chinese Population

et al. 2018

IntroductionThe Joint Committee for Developing Chinese Guidelines (JCDCG) introduced the Chinese definition for metabolic syndrome (MS), which has been verified in southern Chinese people but not in northwestern Chinese people. We evaluated the MS definition proposed by the JCDCG in a northwestern Chinese population, in comparison with those of the revised National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATPIII) and the International Diabetes Federation (IDF).MethodsThis population-based cross-sectional study was a part of the China National Diabetes and Metabolic Disorders Study conducted in Shaanxi province. We included 3243 participants aged ≥ 20 years. The age-adjusted MS prevalence was assessed per the 2007 Chinese population structure. The agreement between different definitions was assessed by the kappa statistic.ResultsThe standardized prevalence of JCDCG-MS, revised ATPIII-MS, and IDF-MS was 22.4%, 29.4%, and 24.9%, respectively. Among women, the agreement of the JCDCG definition with the revised ATPIII and the IDF definition was not good (κ = 0.599 and 0.601, respectively); 54.6% of the revised ATPIII-MS and 56% of the IDF-MS were defined as MS according to the JCDCG definition. Among men, the agreement of JCDCG definition with the revised ATPIII and IDF definitions was very good (κ = 0.863) and substantial (κ = 0.741), respectively.ConclusionThe agreement of the JCDCG definition with the revised ATPIII and IDF definitions was insufficient in women. Compared with the other two definitions, the JCDCG definition underestimates MS prevalence in northwestern women.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1007/s13300-018-0446-9) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Detailed personal, menstrual and family history of hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia and obesity (MetS) was taken on a predesigned proforma. MetS by definition comprises three or more of the following: (1) central obesity with waist circumference ≥80 cm (WHO cutoff for Asian women), (2) systolic blood pressure ≥130 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥85 mmHg or taking antihypertensive medication, (3) fasting plasma glucose ≥100 mg/dl or previously diagnosed type 2 diabetes, (4) plasma high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol <50 mg/dl, (5) plasma triglycerides >150 mg/dl (as per American Heart Association/National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute [AHA/NHLBI] criteria) [ 14 ]. Detailed physical examination was done including the measurement of blood pressure, pulse, waist circumference, and BMI.…”
