The Worsening EpidemicThe Worsening Epidemicof Obesity and Diabetesof Obesity and Diabetes
1999-2000 NHANES Data (JAMA Oct 2002)
31 obese (BMI 30) increase from 23
65 overweight (BMI 25) increase from 56
47 extremely obese (BMI 40) ↑ from 29
No physical activity in 27 No regular activity in additional 28
Each 1-kg increase in weight =remember 9 increase in risk of diabetes
How can lifestyle changes be implemented long term

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance

We need to evaluate every one above 25 years of age for MS
All those with any one manifestation should be screened for the rest of the components
Waist circumference IR Dys Lipidemia
There are effective Rx stategies
This MS is the ldquoPRErdquo for DMII and CHD
We should not wait till these killers develop

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Hope it is informative enough

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Hope it is informative enough

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Focus on insulin resistance as the underlying cause of the metabolic syndrome
More emphasis on the genetic basis of the metabolic syndrome rather than obesity
Leads to increased thinking about the use of drugs to treat insulin resistance in patients with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Hope it is informative enough

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance

subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome
DrSarmaworks
Hope it is informative enough

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome
DrSarmaworks
Hope it is informative enough

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome
DrSarmaworks
Hope it is informative enough
To set all of us into action

ATP III Metabolic SyndromeATP III Metabolic SyndromeTherapeutic ImplicationsTherapeutic Implications
Focus on obesity (especially abdominal obesity) as the underlying cause of the metabolic syndrome
Therefore prevent development of obesity in the general population
Also treat obesity in the clinical setting (NHLBINIDDK Obesity Education Initiative)

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome
DrSarmaworks
Hope it is informative enough

WHO Metabolic Syndrome Definition WHO Metabolic Syndrome Definition 1999 1999 Therapeutic ImplicationsTherapeutic Implications
Focus on insulin resistance as the underlying cause of the metabolic syndrome
More emphasis on the genetic basis of the metabolic syndrome rather than obesity
Leads to increased thinking about the use of drugs to treat insulin resistance in patients with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance
Rosiglitazone a TZD decreases levels of PAI-1 CRP and MMP-9

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Insulin resistance is related to increased PAI-1 fibrinogen and CRP levels in all sections
Increased levels of PAI-1 CRP and fibrinogen predict the development of type 2 diabetes In some analyses these associations are independent of obesity and insulin resistance

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome

Summary Metabolic SyndromeSummary Metabolic Syndrome
The metabolic syndrome predicts the onset of both DM and CHD Insulin resistance and obesity characterize most individuals
subjects with the metabolic syndrome although not required features of the NCEP metabolic syndrome
Initial therapy for the metabolic syndrome should consist of caloric restriction and increased physical activity
Conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as lipids and blood pressure should be treated in individuals with the metabolic syndrome
No consensus exists on whether insulin sensitizers should be used in non-diabetic individuals with the metabolic syndrome
