Metabolic Syndrome and its association with cardiovascular risk factors in teachers
Abstract
Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of death in the Brazil, being the metabolic syndrome defined by the presence of abdominal obesity and at least two more cardiovascular risk factors. Objective:To identify the prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome (MS), as well as its association with cardiovascular risk factors in teachers. Methods: 150 teachers participated in the study, with a mean age of 40±11 years. For MS classification, waist circumference, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein (HDL-C), blood pressure and glycemia were measured. Data distribution was verified using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Subsequently independent T and Mann-Whitney tests were used to compare the variables between the groups without MS and MS. Poisson regression and prevalence ratio were used to determine the association, as well as the magnitude of this association between MS and other variables. A significance level of 5% was adopted. Results: The prevalence of MS was 28.7%, with the most prevalent factor being waist circumference. There was an association of Syndrome with males, age over 45 years, overweight, dyslipidemia, hypertension, hyperglycemia and insufficient physical activity level. Conclusion: One in four teachers were diagnosed with metabolic syndrome, with abdominal obesity being the most prevalent risk fator. In addition, male, older than 45 years, overweight, dyslipidemia, hypertension, hyperglycemia and insufficient physical activity were associated with MS.
