{ "description": "<p>Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) encompasses a range of metabolic issues, including hypertension, insulin resistance, visceral obesity, fatty liver, and atherogenic cardiovascular diseases. Lifestyle modification is the primary strategy for managing the progression of MetS, as untreated MetS significantly increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Given its substantial contribution to global morbidity and mortality, it is crucial to investigate factors that can reduce the disease burden. This study aimed to identify determinants of metabolic syndrome in patients with type 2 diabetes at Mettu Karl Comprehensive Specialized Hospital. Method: An institutional-based unmatched case-control study was conducted involving 482 systematically selected participants. Data were collected through a pre-tested, interviewer administered questionnaire. Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were utilized to identify determinants of metabolic syndrome, using STAT version 17 for the analysis. Results: The mean age (± standard deviations) for the cases and controls were53.41 ± 7.87% and 52.61± 7.24% in years, respectively. The determinants of metabolic syndrome were being male (AOR=0.112, 95% CI =0. 053-0.237), active physical exercise (AOR = 0.404; 95% CI =0.203 0.804), absence of musculoskeletal disorder (AOR=0.016, 95% CI =0.003- 0.079), presence of hypertension (AOR=4.207, 95% CI =1.858-9.525), and glycated haemoglobin>/=6.5 %( AOR=6.218, 95% CI =4.070-13.879) Conclusions: The study identified several determinants of metabolic syndrome, including sex, physical activity, musculoskeletal disorders, and hypertension. Therefore, targeted educational and behavioral modification programs on regular exercise should be routinely practiced. Additionally, early guideline-based screening and treatment of comorbidities and complications would be required to effectively manage diabetes mellitus</p>", "license": "http://www.opendefinition.org/licenses/cc-by", "creator": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "GIRMA TAYE (BACHELOR OF SCIENCE)" } ], "headline": "DETERMINANTS OF METABOLIC SYNDROME IN TYPE TWO DIABETES PATIENTS AT METTU KARL COMPREHENSIVE SPECIALIZED HOSPITAL, OROMIA, ETHIOPIA; 2024", "image": "https://zenodo.org/static/img/logos/zenodo-gradient-round.svg", "datePublished": "2025-05-14", "url": "https://nadre.ethernet.edu.et/record/6617", "@context": "https://schema.org/", "identifier": "https://doi.org/10.20372/nadre:6617", "@id": "https://doi.org/10.20372/nadre:6617", "@type": "ScholarlyArticle", "name": "DETERMINANTS OF METABOLIC SYNDROME IN TYPE TWO DIABETES PATIENTS AT METTU KARL COMPREHENSIVE SPECIALIZED HOSPITAL, OROMIA, ETHIOPIA; 2024" }
