Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a significant health care problem worldwide and is characterized by increased fasting glucose and obesity. Resistin is a protein hormone produced both by adipocytes and immunocompetent cells, including those residing in adipose tissue, and is believed to modulate glucose tolerance and insulin action. This study examined the association of resistin gene polymorphisms, rs1862513 and rs3745368, and related haplotypes with the development of metabolic syndrome in a Han Chinese population. This case-control study was performed on 3792 subjects, including 1771 MetS cases and 2021 healthy controls from the Jilin province of China. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the criteria of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). Logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the relationship between gene polymorphism and MetS. Our results showed that there were no significant associations between MetS and the genotype distributions in four kinds of inheritance models, allele frequencies, and related haplotypes of resistin gene polymorphisms rs1862513 and rs3745368 (allpvalues > 0.05). Based on our study findings, we concluded that mutations in resistin genes are not associated with the presence of MetS in a Han Chinese population from Jilin province in China.

ABSTRACT According to the World Health Organization (WHO 2010) approximately 99% of cases of maternal deaths occur during labor and postpartum. One of the causes of maternal death due to preeclampsia. Country - developing countries maternal mortality rate of 450 / 100,000 live births, this is a very high number. In the hospital Palembang obtained Muhammaddiyah severe preeclampsia incidence by 2013 as many as 85 cases. Many things that cause severe preeclampsia include maternal age, parity, educational level, employment. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of maternal age, parity, educational level, work simultaneously with perinatal death. This type of research is a case control study conducted retrospectively. The population in this study were all women giving birth in hospital Muhammadiyah Palembang in the year 2013 that berjumlah2565. The study sample totaled 225 respondents. In this study conducted univariate, bivariate and multivariate analyzes. From the analysis we found no association with maternal age incidence of severe preeclampsia (P Value 0.043 OR 1.799), no parity relationship with the incidence of severe preeclampsia (P Value 0.010 OR 0.617), no correlation with the incidence rate of severe preeclampsia education (P Value 0.027 OR 1.394) , there is a relationship how to work with the incidence of severe preeclampsia (P Value 0.024 OR 0.576), the most dominant variable is the age of the mother. It is suggested to the leadership of Muhammadiyah hospital Palembang is hoped to be able to further improve health care programs for women giving birth so as to prevent the occurrence of complications during labor and to increase outreach programs about the importance of prenatal care and provide knowledge about the complications - complications during childbirth to facilitate the birth process.

Salah satu penyebab kematian ibu karena preeklamsia. Dinegara – negara berkembang angka kematian ibu sebesar 450/100.000 kelahiran hidup, ini merupakan angka yang sangat tinggi. Di Rumah Sakit Muhammaddiyah Palembang didapatkan kejadian preeklamsia berat pada tahun 2013 sebanyak 85 kasus. Banyak hal yang menyebabkan preeklamsia berat diantaranya umur ibu, paritas, tingkat pendidikan, pekerjaan. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui hubungan umur ibu, paritas, tingkat pendidikan, pekerjaan secara simultan dengan kematian perinatal. Jenis penelitian ini merupakan penelitian case control study yang dilakukan secara retrospektif. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah semua ibu bersalin di rumah sakit Muhammadiyah Palembang pada Tahun 2013 yang berjumlah2565. Sampel penelitian ini berjumlah 225 responden. Dalam penelitian ini dilakukan analisis univariat, bivariat dan multivariat. Dari hasil analisis didapatkan ada hubungan umur ibu dengan kejadian preeklamsia berat (P Value 0,043 OR 1,799), ada hubungan paritas dengan kejadian preeklamsia berat (P Value 0,010 OR 0,617), ada hubungan tingkat pendidikan dengan kejadian preeklamsia berat (P Value 0,027 OR 1,394), ada hubungan cara pekerjaan dengan kejadian preeklamsia berat (P Value 0,024 OR 0,576), Variabel paling dominan adalah umur ibu. Disarankan kepada pimpinan rumah sakit Muhammadiyah Palembang Diharapkan untuk dapat lebih meningkatkan program pelayanan kesehatan kepada ibu bersalin sehingga  mencegah terjadinya komplikasi selama persalinan serta meningkatkan program penyuluhan tentang pentingnya pemeriksaan kehamilan  dan memberikan pengetahuan mengenai komplikasi – komplikasi selama masa persalinan untuk memperlancar proses persalinan.

Summary Objectives: the aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB), compared with nonsurgical treatment (NS group), as an instrument for inducing remission of co-morbidities related to Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) in patients with Obesity, grades 2 and 3 (Ob2,3). Methods: two hundred and fifty eight Ob2,3 patients were selected in a retrospective analysis and included in a case control study. MetS was defined as described by the International Diabetes Federation. One hundred and twenty-nine of these patients underwent RYGB (S group), and 129 were assessed as an NS group. Results: at baseline, S and NS groups did not differ in BMI, age, female sex and prevalence of MetS (p>0.05). For the S group the outcomes were a reduction in BMI of 38.1% (p<0.001), waist circumference of 28.6% (p<0.001), fasting plasma glucose of 10.5% (p<0.001), serum LDL-cholesterol of 21.9% (p<0.001) and of 85% in the number of patients with MetS (p<0.001). For the NS group, only a decrease of 4.12%(p=0.047) in triglyceride levels and of 5.9%(p=0.031) in Diastolic Blood Pressure was observed. In the NS group, 98.6% of the patients continued to have MetS. The number needed to treat (NNT) with surgery to resolve one case of MetS was 1.2 (CI 95%: 1.1 - 1.4). Conclusion: in the real world, in the South of Brazil, compared with NS treatment and after 1 year of observation, RYGB is highly effective for decreasing the prevalence of MetS.

Metabolic syndrome – a cluster of disorders comprising obesity (central and abdominal), dyslipidaemias, glucose intolerance, insulin resistance (or hyperinsulinaemia) and hypertension – is highly predictive of type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. In order to improve detection of this syndrome and estimate its prevalence, both the World Health Organization (Alberti & Zimmet, 1998) and the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel (National Cholesterol Education Program, 2001) have provided working criteria for its diagnosis (the World Health Organization criteria are reproduced in an appendix to this paper; copyright restrictions prevent the inclusion here of the National Cholesterol Education Program criteria). Using the latter criteria, Heiskanen et al (2003) found that the frequency of metabolic syndrome was 2–4 times higher in a group of people with schizophrenia, treated with both atypical and typical neuroleptics, than in an appropriate reference population.
