“…There is no doubt that occupational environments can have a signi cant impact on the lifestyle and health of workers. Several studies have shown a relationship between environmental factors on the job and the occurrence of metabolic disorders [27][28]. So, Loukzadeh et al showed a signi cant association between mean decline in forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) in 5 years and MetS in dust exposed workers.…”

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is closely associated with adverse cardiometabolic outcomes. The objective of this study is to search for practical methods that would enable effective identification of MetS based on anthropometric indicators. 347 male workers employed in hazardous working conditions were investigated. The presence of MetS was established in according to the guidelines of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). Simple linear regression was used to determine the relationship between anthropometric indices and MetS components. Logistic regression provided MetS odds ratios (OR) in relation to increases in anthropometric measures. ROC-curves were calculated to compare the ability of each anthropometric index to predict MetS as well as to determine the diagnostic thresholds of the indicators considered. According to the IDF criteria, 36.3% of the workers had MetS. A direct relationship was found between the individual components of MetS and the anthropometric indices studied. The highest OR was shown by the Body Roundness Index (BRI) 2.235, 95% CI: 1.796-2.781. For different age quartiles, the optimal cut-off values predicting MetS were: for BRI, 4.1-4.4 r.u.; for a body shape index (ABSI), 0.080-0.083 m11/6∙kg-2/3; and for the lipid accumulation product (LAP), 49.7-70.5 cm∙mmol/l. The most significant associations with MetS were observed where the values were higher than these cut-off points (Se = 97.4%).

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is closely associated with adverse cardiometabolic outcomes. The objective of this study was to identify practical methods that could enable the effective identification of MetS based on anthropometric indices. The basis of our study involved retrospective database obtained from routine medical prophylactic examinations. This was a cross-sectional study on the health status of male workers employed in hazardous working conditions at industrial enterprises in the Ural region conducted in 2019. A total of 347 male workers employed under hazardous working conditions were investigated. The presence of MetS was established by a healthcare professional in accordance with the guidelines of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). Simple linear regression was used to evaluate the associations between anthropometric indices and MetS incidence. Logistic regression was used to determine the odds ratios of MetS in relation to increases in anthropometric indices. ROC curves were calculated to compare the ability of each anthropometric index to predict MetS and to determine the diagnostic thresholds of the indicators considered. According to the IDF criteria, 36.3% of the workers had MetS. A direct relationship was found between the individual components of MetS and the anthropometric indices studied. The highest OR was shown by the Body Roundness Index (BRI) of 2.235 (95% CI 1.796–2.781). For different age quartiles, the optimal cut-off values for predicting MetS were as follows: BRI, 4.1–4.4 r.u.; body shape index (ABSI), 0.080–0.083 m11/6 kg−2/3; and lipid accumulation product (LAP), 49.7–70.5 cm mmol/l. The most significant associations with MetS were observed where the values were greater than these cut-off points (Se = 97.4%). The results of this study demonstrated the rapid use of new anthropometric indicators, which have shown good predictive ability and are quite easy to use.
