| Research Abstract |
Determining the effect of lifestyle modification on metabolic syndrome (MetS) is important. However, the worldwide diagnostic criterion for MetS and its components is not unified yet. We have developed MetS-simulator that calculative prevalence of MetS corresponding to several diagnostic criteria based on the checkup result in a group. A meta-analysis was conducted to examine the effects of lifestyle modification on MetS. The rate difference of the rate free from metabolic syndrome and mean differences of its components in the lifestyle education intervention group compared with the control group were analyzed using complete data as well as the data including the estimated data by MetS-simulator. Simple and multiple meta-analyses were conducted using random-effects model and so on. The result suggested the effectiveness of the lifestyle modification.
