영문 초록

The aim of this study was to investigate the risk for metabolic syndrome (MetS) in subjects with a positive family history (FHx) of hypertension/cerebrovascular accident, cardiovascular disease, and/or type 2 diabetes mellitus. The sample population included 5,742 Korean men and women aged ≥20 years. A numeric score of 1 was assigned to study subjects with positive FHx. The MetS group showed a higher score for FHx of cardiovascular risk factors (FHx scores). After adjusting for age, gender, and socioeconomic position, the odds ratio of MetS classification varied by FHx score: 1.47 (95% CI 1.27- 1.71), 1.54 (95% CI 1.13-2.09) and 3.98 (95% CI 1.33-11.9) for FHx scores 1, 2, and 3, respectively. This study suggests that subjects with higher FHx cardiovascular disease scores have a higher risk for MetS.
