Core Tip |
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a major global health concern, with its prevalence rising among adolescents in parallel with increasing obesity and physical inactivity. This study identified a clustering of MetS among Nigerian adolescents. Fitness, visceral adiposity index (VAI), total cholesterol-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and triglycerides-to-HDL-C ratios were uniquely associated with MetS in this population. While the combined contribution of these health markers in predicting MetS was strong, VAI and lipid ratios emerged as the primary determinants. To mitigate the risk of cardiometabolic disease among adolescents, adopting a healthy diet and engaging in regular aerobic physical activity are recommended. |
