Abstract
In a stepwise manner, both ATP III/AHA/NHLBI- or Asian-MetS scores were strong risk factors for arterial stiffness and diabetes. Through a novel and holistic approach, the performance of the ATP III/AHA/NHLBI-MetS score for the risks of arterial stiffness and diabetes was comparable to the Asian-MetS score among a Chinese population.
