Metabolic dysregulation is a cluster of cardiovascular risk factors, including high blood pressure, increased waist circumference, high triglycerides, and low HDL cholesterol. When 3 or more of the known risk factors are combined, the condition is called Metabolic Syndrome (MetS).

Abstract
Metabolic dysregulation is a cluster of cardiovascular risk factors, including high blood pressure, increased waist circumference, high triglycerides, and low HDL cholesterol. When 3 or more of the known risk factors are combined, the condition is called Metabolic Syndrome (MetS).
