metabolic syndrome, central obesity, cardiovascular autonomic neuropathyAbstract
The vascular complications typical of diabetes can appear even in early stages such as fasting or postprandial glucose intolerance. Therefore, regular screening and early detection of these complications have a high clinical significance.
Central or visceral obesity is commonly associated with a set of risk factors (hypertension, dysglycemia, dyslipidemia) that increases the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease; precisely the term metabolic syndrome (MS) is used to describe this association of factors.
