The role of dyslipidemia in metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents / 国际儿科学杂志

ABSTRACT

The metabolic syndrome is composed of various metabolic disorders,which is associated with cardiovascular disease.Dyslipidaemia in the metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents,as defined by American Academy of Pediatrics and Chinese Society of Pediatrics,is characterised by elevated triglycerides and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol as well as low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations.Good evidence confirms that dyslipidaemia in children plays a vital role in the development of adulthood disease,such as atherosclerosis and hypertension,also closely related to metabolic syndrome,insulin resistance and hyperglycemia.Here we reviewed the the role of dyslipidemia in metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents.
