Abstract

Metabolički sindrom je skup međusobno povezanih rizičnih čimbenika metaboličkog podrijetla, koji povećavaju rizik za obolijevanje od kardiovaskularnih bolesti i dijabetesa tipa II. Pojava sindroma je usko povezana s povećanom prevalencijom debljine, odnosno visceralne debljine, hiperlipoproteinemijom, hipertenzijom, povišenom razinom kolesterola i glukoze u krvi. Povećani rizik od nastanka kardiovaskularne i šećerne bolesti tipa II zahtijeva kontrolu i terapijsku intervenciju kod rizičnih osoba. Svaka komponenta metaboličkog sindroma se mora liječiti zasebno. Inicijalna terapija u liječenju je promjena načina života. To uključuje promjenu prehrambenih navika i povećanje tjelesne aktivnosti s ciljem liječenja pretilosti, koja je glavni uzrok oboljenja od ovog sindroma. Kratkoročno gledano, najbolji način za smanjenje tjelesne mase su ili niskougljikohidratne ili niskomasne dijete. Tjelesna aktivnost te dugotrajne prehrambene promjene vrlo su važne komponente u gubljenju te održavanju izgubljene tjelesne mase. Postizanje preporučene tjelesne mase smanjiti će ozbiljnost većine metabolički rizičnih čimbenika.

Abstract (english)

The metabolic syndrome is a constellation of metabolic risk factors that appear to increase risk for development of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Appearance of the syndrome is related to increased obesity prevalence, as well as visceral obesity, hyperlipoproteinemia, hypertension, increased cholesterol and glucose level. Increased risk for development of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus require patient's medical control and therapeutic intervention. Every component of the syndrome has to be treated separately. Initial therapy in management of the metabolic syndrome is a lifestyle change. It includes change of dietary habits and increased physical activity with a view to treat obesity, which is the prime cause of this syndrome. The best body weight reduction is low-carbohydrate or low-fat diets. Physical activity and long-term lifestyle changes are very important for losing and maintaining reduced body weight. Severity of the most metabolic risk factors will be mitigated achieving the recommended body weight.
