ABSTRACT
Background: The metabolic syndrome (MS) is a group of cardiovascular
risk factors whose prevalence is increased in rheumatic diseases.
The aim of this study was to estimate de prevalence of MS and insulin
resistance (IR) in systemic sclerosis (SSc).
Methods: Fifty five patients with SSc were included. The World Health
Organization criteria were used to define MS. Demographic, anthropometric
and blood pressure data were recorded. Blood glucose, high
density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c), triglycerides and insulin were
measured. Oral glucose tolerance curve was performed to identify
impaired glucose tolerance and diabetes mellitus in those patients with
normal fasting blood glucose. The HOMA index was calculated as well
as a quantified proteinuria in urine of 24 hours.
Results. The prevalence of MS was 36.4 % (20 of 55 patients). Seventy
percent of the patients with MS had limited SSc and 30 % diffuse SSc.
An increased IR was observed in the limited SSc in comparison with the
diffuse SSc (2.948 vs. 1.817 ± 0.3844 ± 0.2771,
p = 0.03). An association
between IR and MS was found in the limited SSc (
p = 0.0001). Regarding
the rest of the MS criteria, hypertriglyceridemia and an abnormal waist/
hip ratio were the variables most often encountered, 95 % and 85 %
respectively. Fifty percent of MS patients had low levels HDL-c and 40 %
of them were hypertensive. None of the patients had proteinuria.
Conclusions: The prevalence of MS in SSc was 36.4 %, similar to the
found in other rheumatic diseases, but higher compared to the found in
the Mexican population.
