Association between #MetabolicSyndrome(Mets) and Physical Function in Community-Dwelling Older Women in Korea by Seung youn Hong in BJSTR

Abstract

Background: #MetabolicSyndrome (MetS) is a complex disorder unifying #dyslipidemia, #insulinresistance, and #hypertension. MetS has been well known as a primary risk factor for diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The loss of #musclemass and strength with age is also significantly associated with type II diabetes and cardiovascular disease in older adults. Although these two phenomena seem to be associated with each other, little is known concerning the relationship between MetS and body composition status as well as physical function specific to Korean older women, who have a higher incidence of cardiovascular disease and type Ii diabetes and also have lowered #physicalfunction. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between Metabolic syndrome and #bodycomposition & #physicalfunction in older women in Korea.
