“…The 69.8% prevalence of MetS in our Chinese community-based patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus was very close to those reported in South Indian (73.3%) and Nepalese (71%) type 2 diabetic patients21,22. In agreement with the present results, Vyssoulis et al 11.…”

“…Therefore, we investi- gated the association between UACR below the microalbuminuria threshold and MetS in community-based patients with type 2 diabetes. The 69.8% prevalence of MetS in our Chinese communitybased patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus was very close to those reported in South Indian (73.3%) and Nepalese (71%) type 2 diabetic patients 21,22 . In agreement with the present results, Vyssoulis et al 11 and Oh et al 23 also showed that elevated urine albumin excretion within the normal range can reflect an increasing prevalence of MetS in patients with essential hypertension and in the healthy Korean men, respectively.…”

Aims/IntroductionMicroalbuminuria is positively related to metabolic syndrome (MetS). Our aim was to investigate whether urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) within the normal range is independently associated with MetS in Chinese community-based patients with type 2 diabetes.Materials and MethodsA total of 514 participants (206 males and 308 females; mean age 66 years) with UACR less than 3.5 mg/mmol were enrolled from two downtown areas of Shanghai. The participants were stratified into quartiles according to UACR levels. The prevalence of MetS was assessed and compared among the four groups by binary logistic regression.ResultsCompared with participants with UACRs in the first quartile, the other quartiles had a higher prevalence of MetS (65.9%, 74.4% and 81.3%, respectively, P = 0.001) after adjustment for sex and age. After adjusting for potential confounders, participants in the second to the fourth quartile group had a 1.36-, 1.84- and 2.73-fold risk of MetS, respectively, relative to those in the lowest quartile. Furthermore, UACR, whether as quartile groups or as a continuous variable, is an independent predictor of MetS after fully adjusting for other variables.ConclusionsThese results suggest that UACR even within the normal range is independently associated with MetS in Chinese community-based patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

ObjectiveMetabolic syndrome and diabetes mellitus concurrently potentiates a number of risk factors, significantly higher prevalence of cardiovascular diseases. Numerous risk factors associated with diabetes gets intensified by the presence of metabolic syndrome. Diabetes and metabolic syndrome together can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease by 2 to 4 folds. The main objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of MetS in Type 2 Diabetic patients. Components of metabolic syndrome were measured and compared to determine the prevalence. Hospital based cross-sectional study was conducted from September 2019 to December 2019 at Star hospital and Modern Technical College, Sanepa, Nepal. A total number of 353 patients with type 2 diabetes visiting Star Hospital were included in the study. ResultsAmong 353 participants, metabolic syndrome was diagnosed in 242 (68.5%) participants using NCEP-ATPIII criteria. The prevalence of MetS was 68.5% among which male were 123 (76.3%) and female were 119 (61.9%). MetS was found to be highest in age group of 50-59 years with 34.2% (83) participants. Dyslipidemia with raised TG 71.4% and reduced HDL 76% was found to be most prevalent component in our study followed by hypertension 73.1%.

“…Studies have shown prevalence of overweight and obesity in certain sections of the population to be as high as 32.9% and 7.2%, respectively.18In a hospital based cross sectional study, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in diabetes patients as per NCEP/ATP III and IDF criteria were 71% and 82%, respectively. 19 The global diabetes prevalence in the age group 20 to 79 years were estimated to be 6.6% for the year 2010 which translates into 285 million people suffering from diabetes, according to international diabetes federation diabetes atlas. 20 The reasons for increasing prevalence are not clearly evident but changes in lifestyle and physical inactivity can be an important contributor.…”

Background & Objectives: Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus are both major modifiable risk factors leading to premature death due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, early diagnosis and treatment are must to reduce morbidity and mortality due to following diseases. Therefore authentic data on these issues are of great importance. The aim of this study was to address this gap and create awareness regarding essence of control of Diabetes and Hypertension among political cadres of Nepal as they play major role in policy making. Materials & Methods:A descriptive cross-sectional study in the political cadres of Nepal was conducted at Pragya Bhawan, Kathmandu on 4th March, 2012 where delegates attended their 3rd National assembly. Standard criteria were used to describe both Hypertension and Diabetes and their respective goals. Awareness and treatment were based on self-report. Results: A total of 291 subjects were included in the study. The prevalence of hypertension was 44.32% while that of Diabetes was 18.56%. The current blood pressure of the study population was 50% within normal range and 50% of them was above normal range, body mass index of 35% was normal and rest was above normal range. 15% of the study population was known diabetic while 33% was known hypertensive. More than 50% of known diabetics had poor control over blood sugar and 72% of the known hypertensive had poor blood pressure control. Conclusion: The scenario of hypertension and diabetes control among the political cadres is not up to the mark. Most of those already having the disease have poor control of blood pressure and blood sugar level. From this, the situation obviously seems more warning in general population and needs well-designed assessment.
