Objective

To explore the prevalence and gender distinctions of metabolic syndrome in elder adults in urban communities and to provide targeted guidance on early intervention of metabolic syndrome.

Methods

The data were collected from the 2019 medical examination data of the elderly population aged 65 years or older in Qingyang District, Chengdu, China. Sociodemographic characteristics, health-related behavioral indicators, health self-assessment reports, and metabolic syndrome indicators were selected for the chi-square test and then multi-categorical logistic regression analysis using StataSE16.0 software.

Results

The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 35.12% in total, with women (35.81%) having a higher rate compared to men (34.15%), and multifactorial regression analysis showed a higher risk for women, 70-79 years, smoking, and salt addiction. Model 2 and Model 3 regression analyses for men and women showed that partial mental partial physical labor, and maintaining exercise more than once a week were associated with a low risk of developing metabolic syndrome in old age in both male and female populations. Middle school (OR=1.27, 95% CI:1.12-1.44), High school (OR=1.26, 95% CI:1.10-1.45), smoking (OR=1.11, 95% CI:1.01-1.22), and alcohol occasionally (OR=1.15, 95%CI:1.04-1.27) were only associated with a high risk of developing metabolic syndrome in the male elderly population while education level at junior high school and above (OR=0.85, 95% CI:0.77-0.93), and satisfactory health self-assessment reports in older adults (OR=0.78, 95% CI:0.61-0.99) were only associated with a lower risk of the disease for women.

Conclusion

The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in older adults in urban communities is high, and there are significant gender differences. In the following prevention, control, and intervention work, we should strengthen personalized interventions, targeting and monitoring of key populations.
