Prevalence of metabolic syndrome: association with risk factors and cardiovascular complications in an urban population.

<h4>Introduction</h4>Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a set of cardiovascular risk factors and type 2 diabetes, responsible for a 2.5-fold increased cardiovascular mortality and a 5-fold higher risk of developing diabetes.<h4>Objectives</h4>1-to evaluate the prevalence of MS in ind...
