Summary

Background:Metabolic syndrome is a disorder characterized by abdominal obesity,hypertension,increased triglycerides ,decreased HDL cholesterol and increased blood glucose. Accumulating evidence strongly indicates that insulin resistance and an increased amount of abdominal fat are the pathogenic factors for the characteristics of metabolic syndrome. Studies indicate that sleep apnea may be a manifestation of the metabolic syndrome. Subjects and methods:This study was conducted in the pulmonology department at kasrelainy hospital. It included 80 patients who came to the sleep lab unit for polysomnography. Each patient was subjected to full history taking including(sex,age,smoking history,presence of diabetes or hypertension),thorough clinical examination with emphasis on waist, neck\&hip circumference and blood pressure measurements,Laboratory investigations including :Lipid profile\& Diabetic profile(HBA1C).In addition to ESS and stop bang score questionnaire.
