Abstract

Depression has been related with alterations of glucose metabolism, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, adiposity and dislipidemias, which constitute the metabolic syndrome (MS). Objective: to determine the frequency of depressive symptoms in patients with MS. Material and methods: an observational, descriptive, transverse study was carried out in 101 patients with MS (69 women and 32 men). The Beck inventory for depression was applied. Vasodilatation in the brachial artery and the thickness of the carotid intimae-media were evaluated by means of ultrasonographic measurement. Abdominal perimeter, trygliceridemia, cholesterolemia and insulin resistance were calculated. The statistic treatment was performed by means of descriptive and inferential through mean, standard deviation, and correlation proofs. Insulin resistance was calculated by the HOMA method. Results: prevalence of depressive symptoms: 46.34% between patients with MS (correlation of 0.42 significative at p= 0.05). A higher number of components of the syndrome correlates with higher severity of the depression. Depressive symptoms were associated to a higher insulin resistance, low levels of C-HDL, hypertension and carotid atherosclerosis. Conclusion: depression has a high prevalence in the MS and its associates with a higher number of metabolic and vascular disturbances.
