Prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome Among Adults Aged 50 and Above and Associated Factors: A Cross‐Sectional Study From Ardakan Cohort Study on Aging (ACSA)
The results of this study showed that the prevalence of metabolic syndrome was high in the older population of Iran. Also, the most prevalent MetS component was triglycerides, and HDL was the least prevalent. Hence, based on these findings, tailored interventions seem necessary to control this syndrome in older Iranian populations.
