Metabolic syndrome as a prothrombogenic state

Abstract: The prevalence of obesity has reached epidemic proportions nowadays. Abdominal obesity is the most unfavorable one, because of its association with the complex of markers and risk factors ofcardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes mellitus, which is called metabolic syndrome (MS). MS also increases risk of atherothrombosis because it is characterized by low fibrinolysis and prothrombogenic changes in coagulation and platelet hemostasis. The review highlights the mechanisms of hemostatic disturbances in MS, … Show more

“…Strong positive correlation between blood platelet count and the number of present MetS components was documented upon adjustment for a variety of biosocial factors (age, smoking, alcohol use, and physical activity). Therefore, thrombocytosis can partially explain the augmented cardiovascular risk in MetS patients (Muratova, 2004 ; Berkovskaya and Butrova, 2009 ).…”

“…It is known that metabolic syndrome, in particular, such components as obesity and insulin resistance, are closely associated with the disorders in the systems of coagulation and fibrinolysis, which leads to the increase in the risk of the development of cardiovascular diseases (Berkovskaya and Butrova, 2009). In patients with obesity, the hyperactivity of thrombocytes, as the main component of metabolic syndrome, is a pathogenetic factor of atherotrombogenesis, which is manifested as an increased adhesion and a capability to aggregate.…”
