摘要：Introduction. Metabolic Syndrome is a set of interrelated risk factors for the emergence and progression of cardiovascular
disease and diabetes, such as central obesity (abdominal), elevated blood pressure and disorders of carbohydrate and lipid
metabolism.
Peri- and postmenopausal women are particularly at risk for developing MS by the aging and loss of the protective effect
of estrogen on the body, additionally by intellectual work associated with a sedentary lifestyle and job stress.
Obective. The aim of the study was to analyze the frequency of MS and its criteria in perimenopausal and postmenopausal
women performing intellectual work, as well as selected factors on which the metabolic syndrome depends.
Materials and method. The study group consist of 300 women aged 44–66 working intellectually. Research methods used:
metabolic syndrome’s criteria, Greene Climacteric Scale, body fat accumulation, medical interview. Statistical methods used:
logistic regression analysis, analysis of variance, χ2
test of stochastic independence.
Results. The MS was diagnosed in about ¼ of the women in perimenopausal and postmenopausal period working
intellectually; in most of them, abdominal obesity (¾), in more than a half hypertension, in every sixth hypertriglyceridaemia,
in every seventh hyperglycaemia and in every tenth low HDL-C. Prevalence of MS and its criteria was correlated with BMI,
body fat accumulation and parity. Prevalence of arterial hypertension was associated with the severity of menopausal
symptoms and lack of physical activity.
Conclusions. Prevalence of MS and some of its criteria depended on BMI, body fat accumulation, parity, severity of
menopausal symptoms and lack of physical activity, whereas it did not depend on: age between 44–66, educational level,
marital status or HRT taking.
