abstract
  • Metabolic syndrome is a possible complication of diabetes. Metabolic syndrome is a term that describe a number of medical disorders increasing one's risk of cardiovascular diseases (that is, the diseases affecting heart and/or blood vessels) and diabetes. The term "metabolic syndrome" came into currency during the late 1950s, but it is in common use since 1970s. The term is used to indicate various risk factors of diabetes which were known from at least from 1920s. Mayo clinic defines metabolic syndrome in these words: "Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions that occur together, increasing your risk for heart disease, stroke and diabetes. Having just one of these conditions — increased blood pressure, elevated insulin levels, excess body fat around the waist or abnormal cholesterol levels — contributes to your risk of serious disease. In combination, your risk is even greater."However, the Mayo clinic has also clarified that there is no precise definition of the term, and it has been known by different names including syndrome X and insulin resistance syndrome. Names may differ, but the group of these risk factors is on the rise affecting larger number of people, and some have more than one risk factor.
