Abstract
Introduction: The metabolic syndrome according to the IDF (International Diabetes Federation) is at the origin of the double global epidemic of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. This work aims to study the metabolic syndrome in the internal medicine department of CHU Point G. Methodology: This was a descriptive study of patients who presented a metabolic syndrome according to the definition of the IDF definition, hospitalized in the internal medicine department of the CHU du point G for the period from January 1 2010 to December 31, 2019. Results: During the study period, 4189 patients were hospitalized, including 60 with metabolic syndrome, representing a hospital frequency of 1.43%. The sex ratio was 0.36. The age group of 50 and 60 years accounted for 28.3%. Forty-six point six percent (46.6%) of our patients were diabetic, 45% obese, 60% hypertensive, 70% sedentary and 10% smokers. Our patients had in 53.3% of cases a blood pressure figure ≥ 130/85 mmHg, abdominal obesity in 100%, hypertriglyceridemia in 33.3%, HDL-C less than 0.40 g/l in 62.5% of men and less than 0.50 g/l in 77.27% of men, blood sugar ≥ 1 g/l in 88.3%. Conclusion: The metabolic syndrome, in view of the entities that compose it, is a real cardiovascular risk factor and therefore a major public health issue.
