“…According to the authors of diagnostics and management of MetS in the Republic of Kazakhstan, MetS diagnostics criteria should be the same as the European Standards. Studies in Kazakhstan show that the waist circumference (WC) measurement reflects mostly the degree of insulin resistance in patients [25], [26]. By the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) criteria [27] and experts of the Russian Scientific Society of Cardiology on the diagnosis and treatment of MetS [4], MetS was defined as the combination of WC ≥ 80 cm in women and ≥94 cm in men with two and more risk factors (triglycerides ≥1.7 mmol/l, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol <1.2 in women, HDL cholesterol < 1.0 mmol/l in men, fasting plasma glucose ≥ 5.6 mmol/l, BP ≥ 130/85 mm Hg, or taking antihypertensive medication).…”
