Clinical Correlations and Genetic Associations of Metabolic Syndrome in the United Arab Emirates.
CONCLUSIONS: This study showed associations between MetS as well as clinical factors contributing to MetS and specific genetic and metabolic risk factors, providing an insight into the metabolic and genetic links to disease development. Knowledge with respect to population specific risk markers including at risk genotypes will help in early identification of individuals with increased susceptibility to MetS in the UAE and provide the opportunity for timely intervention to prevent or delay the onset of MetS.
