“…This finding is similar to studies done on African women [ 30 , 31 ], Iranian women [ 32 ], and black African American women in the USA which show a higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome among women than men [ 33 , 34 ]. This finding could imply that metabolic syndrome is a more prominent risk for developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) among women than men and has been suggested by previous studies [ 35 , 36 ]. In this regard, previous studies have also indicated the high relevance and burden of metabolic syndrome among females and the need for preventive intervention to delay or prevent its occurrence [ 37 , 38 ].…”

Background Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is becoming a major public health problem globally; it is clear that the burden of MetS is rapidly increasing the rates of non-communicable diseases (NCD). In Ethiopia studies done so far have shown a large disparity in magnitude of the prevalence of MetS and were mainly institution-based studies. Therefore, this study assess the prevalence of MetS among adults who are residing in Gondar city using Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III) and the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) assessment tool. The findings are imperative to developing and strengthening national NCD prevention and control programs. Methods This study was conducted in Gondar city Northwest Ethiopia in 2018. It employs a community-based cross-sectional study design among 3,227 individuals 18 years of age or older. Data was collected using the WHO stepwise tool, lipid profile, blood pressure (BP), waist circumference (WC) body mass index (BMI), fasting blood glucose levels (FG), and anthropometric measurements. The prevalence estimation was made along with a 95% confidence interval (CI). The Kappa statistic was used to analyze the statistical agreement between ATP III and IDF definitions of the MetS. Stratified analysis was also performed for description and analysis components using ATP III and IDF as an outcome. Result Of the total study participants (3227), 3059 (94.8%) were included in the final analysis and 52.5% were female. The mean (±SD) age of the study participant was 40.8 years (16.2 ±SD). The overall prevalence of MetS using ATP III was 11.2% [95%CI: 10.1, 12.3] and using IDF was 11.9% [95%CI: 10.8, 13.2]. The sex-specific proportion was high in females rather than males irrespective of the criteria. The overall level of agreement between ATP III and IDF prevalence was 91.7% and the Kappa statistics was 0.594. Older age, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, body mass index, being female, born in an urban area, consumption of an alcoholic drink in the preceding 30 days, and non-fasting practice was significantly associated with MetS. Conclusion and recommendation There was a higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome among females than males irrespective of metabolic syndrome diagnostic criteria. This also shows good agreement between ATP III and IDF. Being female, urban birthplace, frequent alcohol consumption in the last 30 days, and non-fasting practice are factors associated with higher rates of metabolic syndrome. Hence, awareness campaigns, physical exercise, and nutrition education intervention should be undertaken to promote health behavioral practice.

O trabalho fornece uma grande importância na relação do indivíduo junto a sociedade, e é uma das práticas mais antigas e utilizadas para a obtenção de renda na vida de muitas famílias. Junto com o tempo as formas de trabalho vêm se modificando a cada instante, porém nem sempre essas práticas de trabalho possuem repercussões positivas na saúde dos indivíduos, pois as mesmas podem ser portadores maléficos no equilíbrio biopsicossocial desses trabalhadores.
