“…HDL cholesterol less than 50 mg/dl had 84% positive predictive value for the metabolic syndrome which is supported by the study of Dokras et al 11 showing triglycerides/HDL-C ratio > 3, having high 10 who had shown a significant (P < 0.001) increasing trend in the proportion of women with the metabolic syndrome as related to the fasting insulin concentration. This trend remained significant (P = 0.001) even after adjusting for BMI.…”

The presence of insulin resistance was defined if fasting insulin was [25 mg/dL or if insulin level post 75 g glucose load was [55 mg/dL, respectively [12,13].…”
