Abstract

According to two current definitions, the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) aamong black Haitians of Montreal was <20%, 30%–36% in Algonquin Indians of Quebec, and >45% in Mexicans of Oaxaca (all aged 35–60 y). Although phenotypes were different, high triglycerides and fasting dysglycemia were good predictors of MetS in all three groups using both definitions. The international cut-offs for abdominal obesity were not predictive of MetS in the Haitian subjects.
