“…The prevalence of MetS was obviously higher in women than in men, so that the odds ratio of MetS was 87% more for women. This was concordant with the results of most studies (14,38). The observed difference can mainly be due to the higher prevalence of important disorders like obesity and diabetes in women compared to men.…”

“…The prevalence of MetS was signi cantly higher in smokers compared to non-smokers. In some conducted studies, this association was observed (45), while in some other studies, it was not (38,46). Also, the prevalence of MetS in alcohol consumers was lower than in non-alcohol consumers (31% vs. 39.3%), but these associations were not signi cant after controlling for the confounder factors.…”

“…The overall prevalence of MetS in this cohort of 5026 Colombian adults was 42.1%. A lower prevalence was reported by Higuita-Guitierrez in Colombian adults (of which 50.5% were under 65 years of age) attending a public chronic disease control program (35.4%) [15], while Barranco-Ruiz noted a prevalence of 54.9% in 1637 Colombians over 60-year-olds (mean age 70 ± 9 years) [16]. We observed double the prevalence of MetS in those over 50 years (> 50: 50.1%, < 50: 23.6%).…”

“…Barranco-Ruiz et al [28] In the newest study presented by Oh et al [38], the type of smoking (conventional ones versus dual users) on the risk of the occurrence of MetS was assessed as well as its relation with the sex of the examined persons. The analysis of smoking history involved 5462 cases of MetS and a control group of 12,194 people.…”

“…The first mentions that some features of MetS stem from the smoking addiction that appeared in 1998 [ 21 ]. Since then, the results of numerous studies have pointed to an increase in the risk of developing MetS in active and second-hand tobacco smokers [ 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ]. As studies have revealed, nicotine has the ability to inhibit lipogenesis, increase lipolysis as well as the amount of free fatty acids, which leads to the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus.…”
