Abstract
Introducción: Chile ha experimentado un aumento de la prevalencia del síndrome metabólico (SM) entre la población adulta. Se sugiere que las manifestaciones fisiopatológicas de los componentes de este síndrome estarían relacionadas con el desarrollo de un posible ataque cerebrovascular (ACV) isquémico.
Objetivo: determinar la frecuencia y las características del SM en una muestra de adultos después de un ACV isquémico.
Métodos: estudio descriptivo y transversal que consistió en revisar las variables relacionadas con el SM en 180 pacientes adultos ingresados a una clínica por ACV isquémico entre los años 2011 y 2017. Se consideraron las mediciones del peso y la talla para obtener el IMC y el estado nutricional. También se midieron la circunferencia de la cintura (CC), la presión arterial sistólica (PAS) y la diastólica (PAD), el colesterol total, el colesterol-HDL, el colesterol-LDL, los triglicéridos (TG) y la glucemia.
Resultados: el 62,8 % de la muestra presentaba SM. El IMC (IC: 28,5-29,9; p = 0,001), la CC (IC: 101,3-105,3; p = 0,001), la PAS (IC: 147,4- 155,7; p = 0,000), la PAD (IC: 87,7-93,6; p = 0,000), la glucemia (IC: 132,9-159,2; p = 0,000) y los TG (IC: 181,2-228,8; p = 0,000) eran mayores en el grupo con SM. El colesterol-HDL (IC: 35,5-39,2; p = 0,000) era más bajo en este mismo grupo. La mayor edad (p = 0,007), el género masculino (p = 0,017) y el estado nutricional de exceso (p = 0,000) presentaron una asociación positiva con el SM. Entre los sujetos con SM, no hubo diferencias al comparar los componentes que definen el SM entre hombres y mujeres.
Conclusión: nuestros hallazgos revelan una alta frecuencia de SM en las personas adultas ingresadas a una clínica por diagnóstico de ACV isquémico.
Background: Chile has experienced an increase in the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) among the adult population. MS is proposed as a predictor for the occurrence of vascular defects causing ischemic stroke. Objective: to determine the frequency and characteristics of MS in a sample of adults after an ischemic ACV. Methods: a descriptive, cross-sectional study that consisted of reviewing variables related to MS in 180 adult patients admitted to a clinic for an ischemic stroke between the years 2011 and 2017. Weight and height measurements were considered to obtain BMI and nutritional status. Waist circumference (CC), systolic (PAS) and diastolic blood pressure (PAD), total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, triglycerides (TG), and glycemia were also measured. Results: 62.8 % of the sample had MS. BMI (CI, 28.5-29.9; p = 0.001), CC (CI, 101.3-105.3; p = 0.001), PAS (CI, 147.4-155.7; p = 0.000), PAD (CI, 87.7-93.6; p = 0.000), glycemia (CI, 132.9-159.2; p = 0.000), and TG (CI, 181.2-228.8; p = 0.000) were higher in the group with SM. HDL-cholesterol (CI, 35.5-39.2; p = 0.000) was lower in this same group. Older age (p = 0.007), male gender (p = 0.017), and excess nutritional status (p = 0.000) had a positive association with MS. Of the subjects with MS, there were no differences obtained when comparing the components that define MS between men and women. Conclusion: our findings reveal a high frequency of MS in adults admitted to a clinic for ischemic stroke
