Background And Objective
Metabolic syndrome is a key factor in developing cardiovascular disease and is a major problem in many countries. With regard to the young Iranian population, high frequency of pregnancy, and the high prevalence of metabolic syndrome, especially in women after menopause, it is a great concern in Iran. This study was performed to investigate the relationship between the number of deliveries (Parity) and metabolic syndrome in non-obese postmenopausal women. Subjects and
Methods
This cross sectional study was carried out on 140 healthy non-obese postmenopausal women who had a BMI less than30 Kg/m2, at 2009 in Ahvaz. The data which were collected through interviews contained demographic information, the number of parity, age at menopause, values of HDL-C, FBS, TG serum after 12 hours fasting, blood pressure and waist circumference. We used the Pearson correlation and multiple regression analysis by SPSS 15 software.
Results
There was significant relationship between parity and components of metabolic syndrome such as FBS (P < 0.001), systolic blood pressure (P = 0.001), diastolic blood pressure (P=0.003), waistcircumference (P = 0.004) and triglycerides(P = 0.009) except HDL-C(P=0.08). There is significant relationship between parity and metabolic syndrome (P=0. 05)
Conclusion
Increasing in parity is associated with increasing in FBS, BP, TG and WC and metabolic syndrome. Therefore, control and reduction of pregnancies should not be disregarded.
