6th International Conference on
AN ASSOCIATION OF METABOLIC SYNDROME RISK FACTORS, HS-CRP, VARIATION OF
BLOOD CIRCULATION INDEX IN PROLONGED FATIGUE

Background: Complications of theMetabolic Syndrome (MetS) consist of several factors that increase the risk of cardiovascular
disease and diabetes. Functional changes in the vascular system are important factors in predicting cardiovascular disease.
The hs-CRP (high-sensitive C-reaction protein) index is used as a cardiovascular risk prediction. MetS has been reported
to be closely related to vascular damage. In this study, we investigated the association between MetS risk factors and blood
circulation index in prolonged fatigue.
Method/Design: Total of 197 participants with prolong fatigue were participated in this study, each individual was examined
for physical measurements and blood tests. We identified metabolic syndrome by using the International Diabetes Federation
(IDF, 2005). Eleven participants were deemed to have metabolic syndrome when 3 or more of the following criteria were
satisfied. The groups were classified into 3 groups (non-MetS group, pre- MetS group, MetS group) according to the number of
MetS of risk factors. This study was followed up at 6-month intervals.
Result: Relationship between hs-CRP and the risk factors of the metabolic syndrome were significantly positively correlated
with waist circumference and glucose by adjusting sex and age (p<0.05). Repeated measures ANOVA does provide results that
ECO, ECRI, CMBP, BP and PP in pulse wave showed significant in the comparison of the groups among MetS (p<0.05).
Conclusion: It has shown these findings suggest that blood circulation index, such as hs CRP, ECO, ECRI, CMBP, BP and PP
could be a useful method for predicting MetS. MetS patients had a significantly increased risk of diabetes during follow-up. It
is expected that the measurement of the pulse wave will become an important part of clinical application.
