BACKGROUND:Metabolic syndrome occurs more often among people living in poorer social conditions. The health status of the largest minority ethnic group in Hungary lags in many aspects behind that of the general population. METHODS:To estimate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome a screening was initiated in the city of Győr among subjects aged 20-70 years who declared themselves as Gypsy. Subjects with known diabetes and cardiovascular disease were excluded. The diagnosis of metabolic syndrome was based on the ATP-III criteria. RESULTS:Among the 77 individuals screened (35 men, 42 women, age 46.9 ± 10.6 years, x ± SD) diabetes mellitus was found in 14 cases (18.2 %), and pre-diabetes (impaired fasting blood glucose (IFG) or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) could be diagnosed in further 14 cases (18.2 %). Individual components of the metabolic syndrome occurred as follows: hypertension in 47 subjects (61.0 %), abnormal waist circumference in 40 individuals (51.9 %), abnormal HDL-cholesterol in 39 cases (50.6 %), abnormal triglycerides in 35 individuals (45.5 %) and abnormal fasting blood glucose in 15 subjects (19.5 %). Within the cohort metabolic syndrome could be diagnosed in 39 individuals (50.6 %) without a significant gender difference (males 20/35 = 57.1 %; women: 19/42 = 45.2 %, p>0.05). CONCLUSION:The occurrence of metabolic syndrome and that of glucose intolerance is high among adult Gypsy people in Hungary. In order to recognise cardio-metabolic risks and to prevent their cardiovascular consequences, continuous health promotion and adequate medical care should be provided for the Gypsy population in Hungary (Tab. 5, Ref. 32).

背景:代谢综合征在生活条件较差的人群中更常见。匈牙利最大的少数族裔的健康状况在许多方面落后于总人口的健康状况。
方法:为了评估代谢综合征的患病率,在盖尔市开始了一项针对20-70岁自称为吉普赛人的受试者的筛查。排除患有已知糖尿病和心血管疾病的受试者。代谢综合征的诊断基于ATP-III标准。
结果:在筛查的77例个体中(男性35例,女性42例,年龄46.9±10.6岁,x±SD),在14例(18.2%)糖尿病前期(空腹血糖受损(IFG)受损或受损)中被发现可以诊断出另外14例(18.2%)的葡萄糖耐量(IGT)。代谢综合征的各个组成部分如下:47位受试者的高血压(61.0%),40位受试者的腰围异常(51.9%),HDL-异常胆固醇39例(50.6%),甘油三酯异常(45.5%)和15名受试者的空腹血糖异常(19.5%),可以在39例无明显性别的人群中诊断出代谢综合征差异(男性20/35 = 57.1%;女性:19/42 = 45.2%,p> 0.05)。
结论:匈牙利成年人吉普赛成年人中代谢综合征和葡萄糖耐量异常的发生率较高。为了认识到心脏代谢风险并预防其心血管后果,应为匈牙利的吉普赛人提供持续的健康促进和适当的医疗服务(表5,参考文献32)。
