Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
The Metabolic Syndrome (MS) comprises a constellation of metabolic abnormalities occur together more often than expected by diversity. The MS has its own meaning as it is a predictor of future cardiovascular disease (CVD) actions and diabetes. Aim of this study was to identify the prevalence and risk factors associated with MS among acute coronary syndrome. A total of 100 patients of acute coronary syndrome were examined for metabolic syndrome. MS was identified with application of IDF (international diabetes foundation) criteria and NCEO/ATP III (National cholesterol education program/adult treatment panel-III). History of hypertension, diabetes, drug intake, smoking and alcohol was taken. Relevant general and systemic examination was carried out as per hospital protocol. All patients were subjected to routine investigations like complete haemogram, serum electrolyte, renal, liver and lipid profile. Fasting and postprandial blood sugars were measured according to standard protocol. In resuts the Prevalence of MS was 59% using IDF criteria and 49% with using NCEP-ATPIII criteria. In all patients in both groups presentation of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) was more common. Sedentary lifestyle was the risk factor for MS, it was also reflected in our study around 70% patients with diagnosis of MS was having sedentary lifestyle. Among the components of MS we found statistically significant difference in FBS, TGL, BP and Waist circumference in patients with MS than without MS. In concusion the Patients with metabolic syndrome had high prevalence of acute coronary syndrome, so lifestyle modification should be undertaken to prevent complications secondary to this syndrome. Keywords: Acute Coronary Syndrome, Cardiovascular Disease, Metabolic Syndrome.
