Continuous metabolic syndrome score in cardiovascular risk assessment in adolescents
From the point of view of atherosclerosis prevention and early intervention, it is extremely important to monitor the MS prevalence in children and adolescents, especially in the current obesity pandemic. The paediatric MS score calculation is simple and accurate, allowing assessment of the severity of cardiometabolic risk in individuals even before the diagnosis of MS. The continuous MS score is useful in identifying individuals at increased risk and in the management of preventive health care for children and youth.
