Components of the metabolic syndrome and stress in the workplace in men, the urban population

Objective: to study the components of the metabolic syndrome (MS) in men, the urban population and to determine their linkages with the parameters of stress in the workplace. The study was conducted in the framework of cardiological screening of the urban population among men aged 25-64 years. A representative sample was formed based on the electoral lists of citizens from one of the administrative districts of Tyumen. The IDF criteria (2005) were used for the evaluation of MS. Evaluation of job stress was carried out according to the algorithms of the program WHO “MONICA-psychosocial”. In the Tyumen population, among men with the presence of MS components, persons with arterial hypertension and hyperglycemia, and, to a lesser extent, persons with dyslipidemia were primarily exposed of stress in the workplace.
