Metabolic Syndrome vs Framingham Risk Score for Prediction of Coronary Heart Disease, Stroke, and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Just a short gripe and then I’ll go…how can something as strongly predictive as the metabolic syndrome on a large number of chronic diseases continue to go ignored by clinicians interacting with patients every day? I have no rational explanation for the disconnect, and quite frankly, there is no excuse not to educate patients on managing this condition.
