Does the metabolic syndrome increase cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality in middle-aged men?
Metabolic syndrome is associated with increased cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in middle-aged men, highlighting the critical need for early identification and lifestyle interventions.
Cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality are increased in men with the metabolic syndrome, even in the absence of baseline CVD and diabetes. Early identification, treatment, and prevention of the metabolic syndrome present a major challenge for health care professionals facing an epidemic of overweight and sedentary lifestyle.
