The metabolic syndrome, which is characterized by a constellation of fasting hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, low HDL cholesterol, hypertension, and/or abdominal obesity, is a risk factor for the development of coronary artery disease (CAD) and cardiovascular events. We evaluated interrelationships between angiographic CAD and the metabolic syndrome, in 478 patients who were referred for coronary angiography to evaluate suspected myocardial ischemia in the department of cardiology of BSMMU between June 2007 and May 2008. We applied the criteria for the metabolic syndrome proposed by ATP III guideline. Study populations were divided into two groups on the basis of presence or absence of metabolic syndrome. Age was similar in both groups. Body mass index (BMI) was higher (26.22 ± 1.94 vs. 22.07 ± 1.55) in metabolic syndrome group (p ≤ 0.0001). All parameters, waist circumference (103.16 ± 10.21 vs. 91.45 ± 7.61) cm, blood pressure both systolic (141.34 ± 21.49 vs. 127.94 ± 13.01) and diastolic (86.8 5 ± 8.42 vs. 79.28 ± 7.77) mm of Hg, serum triglyceride (248.32 ± 77.88 vs. 128.35 ± 19.00)mg/dl, fasting blood glucose (125.40 ± 22.86 vs. 95.65 ± 10.63)mg/dl were significantly higher in metabolic syndrome group (p value=0.0001), whereas HDL (33.10 ± 6.55 vs. 39.30 ± 6.17)mg/dl was lower (p value = 0.0001). More subjects in metabolic syndrome were having type B (55.60% vs. 31.00%) and type C (9.50% vs. 2.70%) lesion as compared to non-metabolic syndrome group. Involvement of left main artery was more (4.80% vs. 0.90%) in metabolic syndrome group. Metabolic syndrome has primary predictive ability for CAD. A metabolic profile should form part of the risk assessment in all patients with coronary disease, not just those who are obese. |
