Prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease Presenting to a Tertiary Care Hospital
Abstract: Background: Metabolic syndrome (MS) is represented by a cluster of risk factors associated with insulin resistance, subclinical inflammation, increased future risk of diabetes, and coronary artery disease (CAD). Hence the present study was undertaken to determine the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and its components in patients with CAD. Method: In this crosssectional study, a total 250 patients of either sex, age between 28-82 years diagnosed with CAD by medical, clinical and angiography findings were studied over a period of 6 month.
