Sex based levels of C-reactive protein and white blood cell count in subjects with metabolic syndrome: Isfahan Healthy Heart Program.

摘要: Background: C-reactive protein (CRP) and white blood cell (WBC) are proinflammatory markers. They major pathophysiological for the development of metabolic syndrome (MetS). This study aimed to address independent associations between MetS WBC counts serum CRP levels evaluation their magnitude in relation MetS, based on sex Iranian adults. Materials Methods: In this cross-sectional study, subjects who met criteria, Adult Treatment Panel III were selected from Isfahan Healthy Heart Program database. A questionnaire containing demographic data, weight, height, waist, hip circumference respondents was completed each person. Blood pressure measured anthropometric measurements done, fasting samples taken 2 h postload plasma glucose (2 hpp). Serum total, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein] cholesterol, triglyceride, as well determined. The univariate analyses carried out assess levels, with both sexes the. Results: men abdominal obesity, higher count, high triglyceride a low HDL level, raised systolic diastolic observed. However, only observed those HDL-cholesterol levels. mean values statistically different without but similar two groups. women, count components (except measures obesity measures) MetS. age smoking adjusted changes correlated number Mets women. Conclusion: findings suggest substantial implications prevention management atherosclerotic diseases, these involve suppression inflammatory conditions rather than incitement anti-inflammatory conditions.
