Abstract
Pierdomenico et. al. studied 174 Caucasian hypertensive patients, aged ≥40 years, with (BM) <25 kg/m2 and waist circumference (WC)<102 cm in men and 88 cm in women, MetS was present 12% patients. EF was significantly higher in patients with MetS than in those without MetS (4.0±0.8 vs. 2.5 ± 0.9 mm, P <0.01). The ROC curve analysis showed that EF significantly improved prediction of MetS when added to BMI and WC. The ROC curve for EF alone indicated that the cutoff value of 3.1 mm had the best performance in predicting MetS(100% sensitivity and 79% specificity) [6].
Pierdomenico等研究了174例年龄≥40岁，男性(BM) <25 kg/m2，腰围(WC)<102 cm，女性< 88 cm的高加索高血压患者，其中12%的患者存在MetS。有MetS的患者EF明显高于无MetS的患者(4.0±0.8 mm vs. 2.5±0.9 mm, P <0.01)。ROC曲线分析显示，EF与BMI和WC联合使用可显著改善MetS的预测。单独EF的ROC曲线显示，3.1 mm的截止值在预测MetS方面具有最佳性能(100%的敏感性和79%的特异性)[6]。
