ABSTRACT
Background: Metabolic syndrome (SM) is public health problem that increases the risk of cardiovascular events (ECV) and diabetes mellitus (DM). There are several clinical approaches to detect SM as indicators from the resistance to the insulin (RI). In our means these approaches have not been contrasted with measurements of RI, for what we ignore its true utility.
Objective: To determine the utility of the clinical approaches of the SM to detect RI using the Quantitative Insulin Sensitivity Check Index (QUICKI).
Method: The patients were detected with SM according to criteria of the NCEP and of the FID, they were calculated the QUICKI = /((log fasting insulin) + (log fasting glucose)). Sensibility (S) was calculated with the formula: S = VP/(VP+FP), the specificity (SP) with the formula: SP = VN/(VN+FN), the positive predictive value: VPP = VP/(VP+VN), the negative predictive value: VPN = FN/(FP+FN), accuracy (A) was calculated by the formula: A = (VP+FN)/(VP+VN+FP+FN). They were considered positive the patients that completed approaches of the SM and positive for the reference test the values of QUICKI ‹ 0.357.
Results: S: 70% NCEP, 69% FID; E: 67% NCEP, 73% FID; VPP: 90% NCEP, 92% FID; VPN: 33% NCEP, 35% FID. Conclusions: Differences don’t exist between the criteria of the NCEP and the FID. The sensibility, and the VPP are superior to the specificity and the VPN. It is necessary to carry out the calculation of the QUICKI, especially when the clinical approaches are negative, since this doesn’t discard that the patients have RI.
