[Measurement of parameters associated with metabolic syndrome in nursing students from Taxco, M éxico].

CONCLUSIONS : The analyzed results confirm that 26% (13 students) of the sample presented with metabolic syndrome, as they had three or more parameters above the normal range. These students may be at medium- and long-term risk for serious chronic conditions related to the metabolic syndrome, such as cardiovascular diseases and/or diabetes.
