Metabolic syndrome is a clustering of at least three of the following five medical conditions: abdominal obesity, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, high serum triglycerides, and low serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL). Metabolic syndrome is associated with the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. [1]
Variable (see types) A metabolic disorder is a disorder that negatively alters the body's processing and distribution of macronutrients, such as proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. Metabolic disorders can happen when abnormal chemical reactions in the body alter the normal metabolic process. [3] It can also be defined as inherited single gene ...
This article provides a global overview of the current trends and distribution of metabolic syndrome.Metabolic syndrome (also known as the cardiometabolic syndrome) refers to a cluster of related risk factors for cardiovascular disease that includes abdominal obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and elevated cholesterol.
Metabolic myopathy. Metabolic myopathies are myopathies that result from defects in biochemical metabolism that primarily affect muscle. They are generally genetic defects ( inborn errors of metabolism) that interfere with the ability to create energy, causing a low ATP reservoir within the muscle cell. [1] [2]
Cardiovascular–kidney–metabolic syndrome (CKM syndrome) is a multisystem disorder of the metabolic, renal and cardiovascular systems. [1] The interactions between metabolic risk factors, such as type 2 diabetes and obesity, with chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disorders lead to an increased mortality risk and significant impact on ...
Hypermetabolism is defined as an elevated resting energy expenditure (REE) > 110% of predicted REE. [1] Hypermetabolism is accompanied by a variety of internal and external symptoms, most notably extreme weight loss, and can also be a symptom in itself. This state of increased metabolic activity can signal underlying issues, especially ...
Inborn errors of metabolism are often referred to as congenital metabolic diseases or inherited metabolic disorders. [2] Another term used to describe these disorders is "enzymopathies". This term was created following the study of biodynamic enzymology, a science based on the study of the enzymes and their products.
