ABSTRACT
Purpose: To evaluate the usefulness of metabolic syndrome diagnostic classifications for diagnosis of insulin resistance and vascular damage in patients with atherogenic dyslipidemia.Methods: A cross-sectional analytical study was performed with 2362 patients with atherogenic dyslipidemia who met selection criteria, between June 2017 and June 2019. Insulin resistance was estimated through the IR-HOMA index. Criteria for atherogenic dyslipidemia increased total triglycerides and/or decreased high-density lipoprotein. Vascular damage criteria, presence of thickening of the carotid intima media complex, left ventricular hypertrophy and chronic kidney disease. Sensitivity, specificity and predictive values for detecting insulin resistance and vascular damage were estimated.
Results: After the comparison of the three diagnostic classifications, it was shown that there were significant differences between patients with and without insulin resistance. Being the WHO classification with 79.8% the one with the highest number of cases identified with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome, in addition, there were significant differences between patients with and without vascular damage. The WHO presented a greater distribution of patients with vascular damage 77.8%; followed by the IDF with 73.4% and finally the NECP-ATPIII 65.8%. For the detection of insulin resistance and vascular damage according to the different classifications, their validity indicators were estimated. All with adequate sensitivity, but WHO was the highest with insulin resistance 79.8% and vascular damage 77.9%. The one with the highest specificity was the NCEP-ATPIII with 72.2%, in relation to the IDF and the WHO, although within acceptable values. With regard to PPV, there were no major differences. The highest NPV was the WHO with insulin resistance 77.8% and according to vascular damage 96.6% followed by the IDF and NCEP-ATPIII.
Conclusions: The three diagnostic classifications, WHO, NCEP and IDF, are useful for diagnosing metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance, high sensitivity for detecting vascular damage, but with low specificity, acceptable PPV and high NPV. We consider that the WHO and IDF classifications are the most useful for diagnosing insulin resistance and vascular damage because of their high sensitivity, acceptable PPV and high NPV.
