Prevalence of metabolic syndrome in Pakistan.

abstract：:The metabolic syndrome increases the risk of atherothrombotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes. In turn, diabetes promotes the development of atheroma and is regarded as a coronary heart disease risk equivalent. A multifactorial therapeutic strategy is advocated for patients with the metabolic syndrome to imp...

abstract：BACKGROUND:In the fed state, the glucose disposal action of insulin can be attributed in approximately equal part to the direct action of insulin and to a hepatic insulin sensitizing substance (HISS) that acts selectively on skeletal muscle. HISS action is absent in the 24-hour fasted state. The objective of this study...
