Objective: To study the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and its components in the population aged 25-45 in Novosibirsk. Materials and Methods: During the years 2013-2015 conducted a cross-sectional population-based survey of the population of one of the typical areas of Novosibirsk. The study included 346 men and 408 women. To identify the criteria used Russian Society of Cardiology (RSC, 2009). According to the criteria RSC recorded in the MetS by waist circumference (WC) > 80 cm in women and >94 cm men, plus two of the following criteria: blood pressure (BP) ≥ 130/85 mm Hg, triglycerides (TG) ≥ 1.7 mmol/l, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) < 1.2 mmol/l (women) and <1,0 mmol/l (men); low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) > 3.0 mmol/l, plasma glucose ≥ 6.1 mmol/l. Results: According to the definition RSC (2009), the prevalence of WC was 42.6 % (41 % in men, 44 % in women; р = 0.433), arterial hypertension - 33.5 % (53 % in men, 21 % in women; р < 0,0001), TG ≥ 1.7 mmol/l - 17.5 % (26.3 % in men, 9.6 % in women; р < 0,0001), decreased HDL-C - 24.3 % (27.7 % in women, 20.5 % in men; р = 0.023), increased LDL - 64.8 % (66.8 % in men, 63.7 % in women; р = 0.383), increased plasma glucose - 29 % (39.3 % in men, 20.1 % in women). Thus, the high prevalence of metabolic syndrome components in young adults of Novosibirsk identified.
