“…The current study, despite having identified a higher cutoff point, obtained the best area under the ROC curve. This study, conducted on 113 elderly women from Viçosa (MG), found a WHR cutoff point of 0.6 (AUC=0.67; 95.0% CI:0.58 -0.76) in MetS, with a sensitivity of 73.3% [22], a similar result to the one found in the present study (0.59). In another Brazilian study with institutionalized elderly in Salvador, the sample consisted of 77.8% women, showing a lower cutoff point, 0.54 (AUC=0.856, CI 95.0%: 0.78-0.91), sensitivity of 0.84 and specificity of 0.78 [11].…”

“…However, their sample was mainly composed of adults and a few elderly individuals, and it was not stratified by age to investigate the predictive ability of anthropometric indicators on high coronary risk. A study conducted in Viçosa (MG) comprising 113 elderly women obtained the same mean CoI found in the present study, which is similar to the identified cutoff point [22].…”

“…No entanto, maior prevalência de SM em mulheres tem sido observada em outros estudos, tanto nacionais quanto internacionais [16,18,[20][21][22]. No Brasil, conforme revisão da literatura realizada por Lopes [24], em todos os estudos que apresentaram a prevalência da SM de acordo com o gênero, as mulheres apresentaram prevalência superior a dos homens, informação que também se repete na comparação com outras pesquisas brasileiras realizadas entre idosos [25][26][27][28][29][30][31].…”

“…Quando comparada à de estudos brasileiros [25][26][27][28][29][30][31], a prevalência de SM também foi maior na presente amostra. O ambiente de pesquisa que mais se aproximou do presente estudo, ou seja, um ambulatório de atenção terciária, foi o estudado por Cabrera et al [25], em que foram investigadas mulheres idosas atendidas em um ambulatório de geriatria de um hospital universitário paranaense.…”
