Clinical profile of women with and without metabolic syndrome (MS) Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • 720 sedentary women (4712 yrs, 1637 cm; 9217 kg; 455% body fat) underwent comprehensive clinical assessments prior to participating in an exercise and diet intervention trial. Subjects were divided into those with less than (n=369) or more than 3 NCEPATP III criteria for MS (n=336). Data were analyzed by ANOVA and are presented as means SD for the nonMS and MS groups, respectively. Subjects who had MS were significantly older (45.312; 48.011 yrs); had significantly greater weight (88.517; 96.017 kg), waist circumference (9916; 10715 cm), hip circumference (11913; 12313 cm), resting heart rate (7010; 7311 bpm), SBP (12112; 13115 mmHg), DBP (788; 849 mmHg), bone mineral content (1,767263, 1,820251 g), DXA fat mass (37.110, 41.210 kg), DXA fat free mass (44.97, 48.27 kg), glucose (9313, 11133 mg/dl), TG (10746, 17584 mg/dl), total CHL (19837, 20845 mg/dl), LDL (11630, 12735 mg/dl), CHL:HDL ratio (3.50.8, 4.61.1), uric acid (4.61.1, 5.64.3 mg/dl), resting energy expenditure (1,574271, 1,725281 kcal/d), and peak SBP (15923, 16825 mmHg); and, significantly lower HDL (5813, 4812 mg/dl), peak aerobic capacity (6.11.3, 5.61.1 METs), and peak HR (16318, 15619 bpm). Results indicate that a high percentage of women interested in participating in a fitness and weight loss program have 3 or more criteria for MS (47%) and that women with MS have less favorable clinical profiles.
