Changes of metabolic syndrome status alter the risks of cardiovascular diseases, stroke and all cause mortality.

ABSTRACT: Previous research focused primarily on static metabolic syndrome (MetS) status, with less discussion on the effects of its dynamic changes on cardiovascular diseases (CVD), stroke, and all-cause mortality. This study examines the impact of MetS status changes on these health outcomes. This study used data from two prospective cohorts: the China Longitudinal Study of Health and Retirement (CHARLS) and the Wuhan Elderly Health Examination Center community (WEHECC). MetS was determined using the ATP III criteria. Participants were classified based on changes in MetS status, defined as MetS-free, MetS-recovery, MetS-developed, and MetS-chronic, assessed at baseline and at follow-up (three years later for CHARLS and six years later for WEHECC cohort). The primary outcomes for CHARLS included al
