Ordinary least squares regression was used to determine unit changes in the outcome variables given CMLE.Results: The estimates for unadjusted regression analysis of individual risk markers indicated a significant relationship between CMLE and alterations in the five risk markers of MetS (HDL-cholesterol, triglyceride, WC, HbA1c, and BP) in midlife. After adjustment for birth and lifestyle characteristics/health behaviours, the relationship between CMLE and the risk markers was attenuated for HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, and HbA1c but remained significant for WC 0.70 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.065– 1.30, p< 0.001) and SBP 1.48 (95% CI 0.48– 2.47 p< 0.001).Conclusion: There was a positive association between lower CMLE and the risk of MetS using the NCDS data. Lifestyle characteristics may be influential determinants of MetS risk in mid-adulthood.Keywords: maternal education, metabolic syndrome, risk markers, biomedical survey, NCDS dataIwundu CPang DPappas YDove Medical Pressarticlematernal educationmetabolic syndromerisk markersbiomedical surveyncds dataSpecialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 13, Pp 3761-3771 (2020)
