Abstract :

Introduction: Metabolic syndrome is a clustering of medical conditions. Evaluation of biochemical markers like Uric acid to predict an early onset of metabolic syndrome along with lifestyle changes to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Aims and Objectives: Assessment of role of Uric acid as a marker and its sensitivity & specificity in diagnosis of metabolic syndrome Materials and Methods: A hospital based cross sectional study conducted on 200 subjects at MBGH, Udaipur. Results: Out of 200 subjects,100 cases of metabolic syndrome and 100 age and sex matched control. Among cases, 61 out of 100 had UA values above normal. UA values were compared with respective parameters of metabolic syndrome. In 20 out of 25 CVD patients, higher levels of UA were noted. Conclusion: Elevated levels of UA were found to be associated with metabolic syndrome and is strong predictor of cardiovascular risk and hence the role of primary prevention
