Journal Title: IJSR-International Journal Of Scientific Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 8
Abstract
Prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome (MS) among rural post-menopausal women using three different criteria was conducted among 116 post-menopausal women from five villages of Singur, West Bengal, India in order to assess their usability. Blood pressure; waist circumference; fasting blood glucose, serum triglycerides and serum HDL were measured. MS was defined using IDF, 2005 (for Asians); NCEP ATP III and the Consensus definition for Asian Indians (CDAI). Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS V:16. Prevalence of MS differed according to criteria used, being highest for the CDAI (40.52%). Prevalence of risk factors of MS among the women not having defined MS was high according to all criteria. Sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and LR+ for CDAI against IDF were 100%, 87.18%, 79.17%, 100% and 7.8, respectively; whereas, for NCEP-ATP III these were 65.79%; 91.03%; 78.12%, 85.32% and 7.3, respectively.
