Abstract

|
|
Purpose: This study was conducted to identify the clinical characteristics and risk factors on the occurrence of
metabolic syndrome (MS), and to examine factors affecting the severity of coronary artery diseases in patients
with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
Methods: A total of 894 patients who had admitted C national university hospital from 2008 to 2010 participated in this study. Collected data were lipid profiles, abdominal circumference, blood pressure, fasting blood sugar (FBS) level, participants’ demographic data and other risk factors by interview, measurement, and review of participants’ medical records. MS was defined according to modified National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III and Asia-Pacific Criteria.
Results:The participants’ mean age was 64.7 (±11.0) years and 65% was male patients. The participants’ with MS was 37.6% in men and 71.4% in women. According to binary logistic regression analysis, high FBS (95% CI 1.7-2.0)
and lower high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (95% CI 1.1-1.9) were independent predictors of severe
coronary artery disease.
Conclusion: These risk factors of severe coronary artery disease will be utilized as an important basic data in part of management, education, and countermeasure of patients with both MS and AMI.
