Criteria in the Diagnosis of Metabolic Syndrome in Children: A Scoping Review

“…In the case of the most well-known criteria such as NCEP ATP III, its application was found in seven studies [13][14][15][16][17][18][19] representing 26.92%; while in relation to IDF criteria, they were identified in nine articles [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] equivalent to 34.61% of the included studies. However, since 2015 there has been an increase in the use of more specific criteria for children, such as Cook et al 's criteria, the most used by researchers in this review present in 11 studies 18,19,[23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] representing 42.31%; and de Ferranti's criteria in six investigations 18,19,24,25,32,33 representing 23.08%. 50% of the included studies were conducted in Latin American countries such as Brazil, 13,24,31,32,35 Colombia, 17,33 Chile 26,27 and Mexico; 18,21,28,30 the remaining included studies were located in Asia in countries like Iran, 14,19,…”

“…13,18,[20][21][22] Table 6 shows the prevalence of MetS in children, according to the different criteria used and based on age and sex. It has been found that the prevalence of MetS in girls is higher than the presence of this pathology in boys in seven studies 15,20,28,29,[31][32][33] while in four studies the prevalence of MetS is higher in boys than in girls. 14,16,22,34 In terms of the prevalence of MetS, globally in the range of 6 to 12 years old, it varies between 0.83-45.9%, and varies depending on the criterion used, with the highest prevalence if the de Ferranti et al criterion is used as observed in 3494 two studies 18,19 and with a lower prevalence value when using the Weiss et al and Viner et al criteria compared to other definitions of MetS determined in the research of Peña-Espinoza et al 18 and Koohmanaee et al 19 respectively.…”

Concordancia entre cinco criterios de síndrome metabólico en adolescentes de una zona altoandina del Perú

“…En diversos países, se ha evaluado la concordancia de diferentes criterios de SM en adolescentes (10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15) , sin embargo, dichos estudios fueron realizados a menos de 2000 metros sobre el nivel del mar (msnm). Se reporta que, la frecuencia del SM es menor en elevadas altitudes (16,17) , además, la presencia de sus componentes puede variar; por ejemplo, en Ecuador, se ha observado una mayor frecuencia de hipertrigliceridemia (18) y menor frecuencia de hipercolesterolemia e hiperglicemia (16) .…”

Frequência de síndrome metabólica em estudantes de uma universidade pública brasileira

“…Dentre as possíveis causas do surgimento dos seus componentes estão os hábitos alimentares inadequados (Oliveira et al, 2009), maior probabilidade de desenvolver SM pessoas que sofrem estresse no trabalho, os obesos, sedentários com padrões dietéticos hipercalóricos e fatores genético desfavoráveis (Freitas et al, 2012), assim como pessoas que possuem resistência à insulina e intolerância à glicose (Morrell et al, 2012), assim como em pacientes esquizofrênico com influência de polimorfismo nos genes ANKK1, DRD2 e DRD3 (Pinto et al, 2018). Esses hábitos de vida vêm contribuindo com a prevalência de SM desde a infância (Granjeiro et al, 2016;Gonçalves et al, 2021).…”
