“…In a cross-sectional study, in Pune, 1000 healthy children, in the age group of 12-19 years were screened for anthropometric measurements and BP; those found to be overweight and obese were further investigated for blood sugar and lipid profile, to detect metabolic syndrome. 20 Parental history of diabetes was present in 43 of 1000 (4.3%) adolescents, in which 10 of 16 (62.5%) adolescents had associated metabolic syndrome.…”

Background: Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) are the major cause of mortality in the world. Reducing the incidence of CVDs has been a challenge due to the multifactorial risk profile of their origin. Among the non-modifiable risk factor for CVDs family history holds a lot of importance. Objective of the study was to study blood pressure, waist hip ratio and body mass index among adolescents and verify the possible the relation with a family history of cardiovascular disease.Methods: This is a cross-sectional study, which was conducted in 286 school children aged 10 to 19 years, of either sex, from Barabanki. After getting consent from school authorities, children and their parents, a detailed history was taken with a pre-designed proforma. Anthropometric and blood pressure measurements were taken.Results: In the presence of any risk factor of CVDs, 33.9% of the adolescents were overweight/obese, 45.8% had abdominal obesity, 26.3% had elevated systolic BP and 35.6% had elevated diastolic BP. The group with family history of CVDs had significantly higher number of adolescents with obesity and/or hypertension.Conclusions: The present studied showed an important association between family history of CVDs and blood pressure, waist hip ratio and body mass index in adolescents.

“…Most of the studies met six or more of the quality criteria of the nine quality domains (Table 2 ). Two studies calculated the minimum sample size as a priori, seven studies mentioned the confidence intervals in their results, and one study introduced (selection) bias as the way the sample was obtained [ 21 , 25 , 27 ].…”

“…Among these, one was a nation-wide survey, and the rest were conducted in different states of India [9]. Furthermore, 11 studies were conducted in urban areas, one study in rural area, and four in both urban and rural areas [7][8][9][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28]. Three studies used IDF criteria, nine used NCEP-ATP III criteria, and four used both criteria (Table 1).…”

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a group of metabolic abnormalities that include disturbed glucose metabolism, dyslipidemia, abdominal obesity, and arterial hypertension. Nutritional and lifestyle modifications have increased the risk of cardiometabolic disorders among adolescents. Studies conducted in various parts of India have shown a wide range of prevalence among adolescents aged 10-19 years. The various criteria for defining MetS have led to controversial diagnoses, providing inconsistent findings. Additionally, there is a paucity of national-level estimates on the prevalence of MetS in India. Therefore, this systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to estimate the prevalence of MetS among adolescents. A comprehensive search was conducted to identify studies that reported the prevalence of MetS among adolescents in India. The search was performed using several databases, including PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, Scopus, Medline, Web of Science, Google, and Google Scholar. Relevant data were extracted and assessed for quality using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) guidelines. To estimate the pooled prevalence and explore heterogeneity, a random effects model and I 2 statistic were used. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on criteria for defining MetS, sex, study setting, and study site. Sensitivity analysis was performed, and publication bias was also explored. A sample size of 19044 adolescents from 16 studies was included in the meta-analysis. The pooled prevalence of Mets among adolescents using the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) criteria was 3.4% (95% CI: 1.1-6.6%, I 2 =97.1%) and the National Cholesterol Education Program - Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III) criteria were 5.0% (95% CI: 3.3-6.9%, I 2 =95.9). The subgroup analyses did not reveal the reasons for heterogeneity, but sensitivity analysis showed a substantial change in the pooled estimate. Our study findings show that the prevalence of MetS among Indian adolescents is higher compared to other countries posing a challenge to address the necessity of intervention among adolescents. Standardizing the definition of MetS is necessary to avoid inconsistency in the estimates. The study findings highlight the need to strengthen existing adolescent programs through the encouragement of increased physical activity and the adoption of nutritious well-balanced diets to mitigate the burden of MetS among adolescents in India.
