ABSTRACT

Objective To compare application in Beijing population using the diagnostic criterias for metabolic syndrome(MS)according to the criterias of the International Diabetes Federation(IDF),Third Report of the National Cholesterol Education Program(NCEP)Expert Panel on Detection,Evaluation,and Treatment of High Blood Cholesterol in Adults[ATP Ⅲ(revised)]and Chinese Diabetes Society(CDS), respectively.Methods This study was based on an investigation on the risk factors of cardiovascular diseases involving 4 628 cases.MS was diagnosed according to these three definitions respectively and prevalence derived from these three definitions was compared.Results The prevalence of MS were 40.3 %, 44.3% and 35.7% according to the IDF,ATP Ⅲ(revised)and CDS respectively.The agreement in the diagnosis of MS using IDF and CDS,ATP Ⅲ(revised)and CDS,IDF and ATP Ⅲ(revised)were 81.9%, 83.7% and 96.0% respectively.There were 4.0% subjects among the MS patients diagnosed by ATP Ⅲ (revised)who can not be screened by IDF criteria.The prevalence of obesity was 19.6% according to ATP Ⅲ,much lower than the prevalence using CDS and IDF,whereas this rate increased to 58.6% using ATP Ⅲ(revised)criteria,showing diagnostic agreement with CDS.The coincidence rate between ATP Ⅲ (revised)and CDS was 80.6% Conclusion This investigation shows good agreement in the diagnosis of MS using IDF,CDS and ATP Ⅲ(revised)among Beijing population and these criterias can be used in China.
