Metabolic Syndrome Combination of risk factors and near risk factors of metabolic origin that predict increased risk CHD Diabetes They occur together too frequently to be coincidence The individual factors produce additive risk, allowing the identification of large number of people at risk who would be missed if focused on individual factors (definition of dyslipidemia, HT, diabetes)
Components of Metabolic Syndrome Insulin resistance Obesity High TG Low HDL Hypertension Hyperglycemia

Important Components of the Metabolic Syndrome Abdominal obesity (waist circumference) Men: >102 cm (40 in) Women: >88 cm (35 in) Atherogenic dyslipidemia Elevated triglycerides Small LDL particles Low HDL-C Raised BP (>130/80 mm Hg) Insulin resistance ( glucose intolerance) Prothrombotic state Pro-inflammatory state

Atherosclerosis LDL vs Metabolic Syndrome Blood pressure, lipids, glucose platelet, inflammatory cells :Metabolic Syndrome Fibrous cap LDL cholesterol
LDL : independent risk factor Exess in blood LDL receptor is saturated with 25 mg/dl LDL
Excess LDL and physiological LDL 25 mg/dl LDL is physiologically enough to keep human functions through LDL receptor, and cells synthesize cholesterol de novo. No physiological system to store excess LDL in human, therefore excess LDL (approximately greater than 50 mg/dl) generates atherosclerotic plaque with aging. The lower, the better
Plaque formation LDL cholesterol > 50 mg/dl Other risk factors accelerate the progression of atherosclerosis, in particular, metabolic syndrome
Japan Diabetes Complication Study
Protocol : Design and Setting A randomized, prospective, intervention trial. 59 Japanese institutes that specialize in diabetes care 2205 patients with previously diagnosed type 2 diabetes. The first large-scale prospective trial focusing on a Japanese diabetic population.
