The constellation of obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and
hyperglycemia within an individual, is referred to as metabolic
syndrome (MetS), and is increasing in prevalence in the United
States and world-wide. Patients with MetS have a heightened
probability of developing type 2 diabetes and atherothromotic
disease. In this book, the authors present current research in the
study of the classification, risk factors and health impact of
metabolic syndrome. Topics include the pathophysiological changes
to the vasculature and inflammation within the skeletal muscle that
accompany MetS; metabolic syndrome in children; role of
triglyceride modifier genetic variants in the development of MetS;
subclinical atherosclerosis and risk of stroke in metabolic
syndrome; nuclear receptors and MetS; vascular repair by
endothelial progenitor cells in an experimental model of metabolic
syndrome; chromium mediations of glucose tolerance; and sleep
disturbances and glucose variability.
