Abstract

The diabetic condition is influenced by several factors, some of which can accelerate the disease’s progression to various complications that aggravate the morbidity. This study aimed at determining the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its individual components and the most critical predictive risk factors of MetS in type 2 diabetic patients. The present study was a cross-sectional study that included a sample of 140 individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The study was carried out at a tertiary care institute located in Central India. The research utilized a questionnaire to gather data on individuals with diabetes, conducted anthropometric measurements and collected blood samples to measure specific biochemical parameters, including fasting blood glucose and lipid profile. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) was established based on the criteria outlined by the National Cholesterol Education Program/Adult Treatment Panel III. The study population comprised 100 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, made up of 33 males (33%) and 67 females (67%). The overall mean age of the population was 51.31 (SEM = 0.97) years The prevalence of MetS was 58% in the studied population. For the overall population, hypertension was the commonest component (60%) of the MetS, followed by high waist circumference, or central obesity. Female type 2 diabetics had a higher prevalence of MetS and carried more components than their male counterparts. With hypertension being the commonest component, future cardiovascular disease prevention strategies should focus attention on its management and prevention, through education
