found: Am. Heart Assn. Web site, Aug. 30, 2005(The metabolic syndrome is characterized by a group of metabolic risk factors, including central obesity, atherogenic dyslipidemia, raised blood pressure, insulin resistance or glucose intolerance, protrombotic state, and proinflammatory state. People with the metabolic syndrome are at increased risk of coronary heart disease, other diseases related to plaque buildups in artery walls (e.g., stroke and peripheral vascular disease) and type 2 diabetes. The syndrome is closely associated with a generalized metabolic disorder called insulin resistance, in which the body can't use insulin efficiently. This is why the metabolic syndrome is also called the insulin resistance syndrome.)
